Daytona 116500 Noob and arf caliber swap

[thule77]

Hi there, as we know it’s common situation swapping bezel, dial etc from arf Daytona 116500 to Noob one, my question is it possible to put Noob 4130 clone into arf case(with dial, bezel, braselet) or there are too many differences to make such mode?
thanks for any advices.

If that were easily done there would be pics and threads galore about it. I recall one member who attempted it and IIRC there were milling mods done to the inside of the case and even then there were issues with pusher fit. I don't think it was successfully completed.

No! The ARF case doesn't fit the clone 4130. Stem position is not the same and I have been told it will take a lot of work to modify the case to even attempt to fit it. I had asked a modder when the 4130 first came out, as Noob didn't originally offer their Daytonas in 904L.

The best compromise is to find a modder to reshape your Noob case for you.

I was afraid of it, the easiest way usually isn’t the best. Thank You guys for Your replies.
