ZF 4500v

I am not an movement expert and in the ZF the movement is hidden under a lot deco plates. But according to the characteristics and the position of the balance wheel I strongly guess its an modded 9015.

Does the ZF crystal have AR coating or is the crystal clear overall? I know gen doesn't and have seen people criticize the gen for it. But some rep factories like to slab on AR coating even when the gen doesn't. My ZF 15500 and 5164a have great AR coating and crystal clarity, I wonder if it carries over into this release?
Worse I am not sure but clearly not a miyota 9015 as per TD description
This is the Miyota
8F - you can clearly see the Miyota balance bridge on the same side as the crown and its distinctive shape with the 5 engraved lines
ZF - definitely NOT a Miyota 9015 as balance bridge is on the other side. Movement need to be identified but surely a simple decorated Asian 23j

The balance wheel is on the same position. The balance cock has the wrong direction. As I siad, I guess it's a modded 9015. I dont know any other high beat movement with this charateristics, measures an balance wheel position ;-)
But honestly I dont care, as long as the movement runs flawless and makes no noise.
Balance in the right position but balance bridge on the opposite side? With all inverted regulation arms?
Highly doublt is the Miyota, I don’t see our Chinese friends modding it to this point - too expensive and definitely too risky
Could be a seagull ST2555

My dealer has it listed as an Asian 24j movement https://biao6688.com/209832.html.

In one word? Perfect ;-)
Just made some fotos in direct sunlight...
Thanks for the amazing pictures. Ordered mine today! And I have a feeling that I’ll need to get more than just the silver dial…

Thats just what I think. I am already considering buying the blue one too. But first I want to wait for some real life photos in sunlight ;-)
Really wish they would bring these out on the rubber strap and deployant. I have too many SS bracelet watches

Would you please share your dealer details as I’m looking to order the watch but 558$ is a bit too much.. would rather save that 100$+ and order some straps.
