ZF 15707 - New release

[mgberns]

Yes, the aps was slightly heavier because the metal parts were steel. The ZF version has titanium parts.

...definitely wears better than all the other ap divers I've had...

Is this the ZF or the ASPF version?

As per the name of the thread and darker color, I presume this last one is ZF. Already ordered mine from Andrew.

Looks amazing for summer and weekends!

In terms of the ceramic finish on black and white is one better or both very similar?

I'm looking at exactly this watch on JTIME for $518
How long have you owned it? I once heard that ceramic can chip.

I purchased an AP from a TD a few years back but numbers started falling off . I paid 600 dollars !

Cool, thanks , btw what color do you ordered?

Just compared with gen picture. Just don't know why ZF still can done right after long time..

Gen.


ZF


You can tell the inner driver bezel totally wrong.
And the dial texture not right, also hand and hand pion. Lol

compared with gen picture

that's exactly what is wrong with your post.

Of course there are minute details that differ from gen but comparing two pictures of watches in completely different lighting conditions is no proof of anything nor a reliable source without having said watches in hand.

Color mismatch is common and not really noticeable under everyday circumstances with changing lights etc. - texture wise you may be right that the ZF dial is slightly too shiny but then again - these images do not portrait any of those differences, just different reflections.

I would say you get a lot of watch for 400 bucks - a watch that is not even in production anymore for several years now and was exclusively available in boutiques only. Let alone there are only one or two hands full of offers on C24.

That factories even care about this almost "Neo-vintage" stuff is amazing.

You see the mistake here yourself, right?

The price is also totally “wrong”, vs gen.

For the price, the rep is a pretty decent watch. There will always be differences between the gen and the rep and if you think it’s not good enough, get the gen.
If the rep factory isn’t pricing the watch the same as the gen, why on earth would you expect it to be the same as the gen down to the most minute details?

Amen!

Soooo I'm probably gonna get flamed, but for the black model would you choose APSF or ZF?

I´m about to receive the white one from ZF, btw.

White one - ZF because their ceramic white is better

Black one i think both are equal

Thanks @Reaps ! I guess it comes down to watching vids and pics...

My thing about this is

Be the change you want to see

Alot of people ask questions but not alot of people post content

Since you have ZF 15707 coming in, post pictures, make a review, post your opinion, it always helps, we need more content!!!

I've just ordered this one by APS factory

but I think it will take 2/3 weeks to arrive.
I'll let U know... .

 

[996RUF]

Great watch for the money. Super another factory took a crack at this model.

 

[samsoniteman]

Nope. The ZF has quite good ceramic on the crowns ...



... while the white on the crowns on the APS is completely off ...

Hey JayBee - the white ceramic looks amazing. Question - are the indices and inner bezel color black on the ZF version? Or blue? Tough to tell from the pics.

You sir, have been the main reason I’m getting pulled into the AP game lol. Thanks man.
