Guys is the white dial easily sourced by TDs?

I don't like PureTime, but I don't see the white on many TD websites
I have a white dial incoming.. i have ordered it from kswatches, if you are located in eu it’s a good way to order

Beautiful.

To the above discussion, I would like to add that in some parts in Europe, more specifically France (Paris and south of France) and London, it has become seriously dangerous to wear any well known gen. Nearly every single day people get attacked, robbed and even stabbed for their valuable wristwatch. Gangs have learned to recognise the easy resealable items (sorry AP, Rolex Patek.... and even Breguet). I live in London, and today sadly I don’t fancy wearing my gens anymore if I have to commute or go into a social event. How sad is this? They sit in my safe.

Now I have seriously started enjoying the rep world and I happily wear a rep instead. I don’t care if people can spot it is a rep, what I care about is I am enjoying myself wearing something I love and looks good. I will also happily give it to any attackers without resisting and therefore keeping me and my family safe. Bonus, I will not have to deal with all the collateral damages (insurance, police and I can get a new one without any fuss... )

Few year ago I have literally been stolen of my gen 116520 Daytona in MIlan's underground. The pattern is always the same, a person approaches you from behind and literally rips the watch off your wrist. As soon as I jumped in pursuit of the guy, another thug from a side tunnel of the subway kicked me with a kick on my leg and left me on the ground motionless.
To a friend of mines happened the same in Barcelona, same scheme.

I have started to buy and wear reps for that reason. And gens stay in safe.

Hi cassapanca,
when do u have ordered the white one?

I talked to kswatches during the cny holidays, when the factory were closed.. because of coronavirus all the orders were delayed.. last week they told me that the watch is on the way from China to uk, then it will go from uk to Italy.. when I will receive it I will send to Johnny depp to install my gen dial

cassapanca sounds very good - hopefully it will get to you quickly during all the problems. I'm still waiting for the order my white one because I want to have it together with ARF models and unfortunately ARF is still closed. for me it will be then the JF V5!

Grilling, imho it is better to get ZF than JF though the dw is not well Centered in the former unlike the latter

I have seen some white dial photos kswatches posted and I thought the color of dial is a bit too dark. Is the white dial close to gen color?

Where I need to be.
So is it worth jumping on this iteration or just wait for the zf v2?

Depends on your expectations.
You realize same question can be asked for v2 - Vn: Is it worth getting or do you want to wait for the next version?
There are 2 version of the 15400 if you look at the big picture: gen and rep.
Just get one you like and quit fussing. Next version won't be gen and it won't be perfect either. So when does one make the decision to purchase?

Really depends on how bad the issues are to begin with. It was worth waiting for the ZZF V2 Submariner, for example, which I was glad I waited for.

And I agree. It depends eventually on your expectations, and how close the current version matches it.
So in a way, you alone can decide if the current release is worth your money.

I love that I am not as OCD about other brands (omega, ap, breitling) as I am about Rolex. I see these ZF 15400s and just salivate. Profusely. Lol. Especially this white dial.
