Just received my 15202. All these complaints, literally nitpicking and next to non existent. The lume issue isn't an issue, the link gap isn't an issue.

The biggest surprise to me is how tiny this thing is. And for anyone to notice these details in person, they would need to have the watch under an inch from their eyes.

Glad to hear it mate, that's exactly what I said to you :)

Does anyone actually own BOTH JF 15400 v5 and this XF 15202 v2? I like JF bracelet for its comfort. I am curious how well XF bracelet compares specifically with JF's. All others aside, just comfort that I am wondering. TIA.

I haven't tried the jf ap but the xf bracelet feels pretty good on wrist. It was a little pain to remove the links but I heated the screws with a hair dryer. You do feel some machining edges, it's not sharp but it's noticable.

Little to no jingling and pretty smooth links out the box.


Looking at the video, I wish I had the v1 dial, the v2 dial doesn't have much of a sunburst to it and is bluer in color

I've read all pages and there are members mentioned the bracelet screws are very difficult to unscrew for sizing. Are those rare cases, or it's a consistent (minor) issue? I just want to know can a adjust the bracelet easily by myself

I bought from puretime and asked them to remove 2 links prior to selling. Fit perfect on arrival.

Wanted to share my QC of lume that looks pretty good. I’m happy with it, going to accept.

Looks like a completely new dial to me. Dial color is a lot darker than on mine.
Lume looks great!
Dial looks more grey-blackish than blue though.
(My V2 from June 2020 with after market lume for comparison above)

My dealer sent me the watch plus a Bergeon lookalike screwdriver which made resizing the bracelet relatively easy for the one I received.
I used the screwdriver plus a tweezer to pull out the loosened screws. Never had to lubricate nor soak the bracelet before resizing.

Wouldn't it be easier to ask the TD to unscrew every bracelet screw 1mm before sending, then the damage risk are on them...

Si you basically want to ask them for a favour and then blame them if they make a mistake? Nice thinking...

EXACTLY. Or they will blame you if you f*ck up and you need to pay for new links or a whole bracelet (plus shipping) as some member had to do. And this is suppose to be very basic stuff. Shorten a bracelet with screws I mean...

Not all people have "perfect" screw driver set at home and might not wanna buy/order a new set just for this watch.
