That does look great.

I thought there was one member here saying Noob 005's "A" font was off. But this looks dead on to me.

Below is Pic of gen:
One thing I do notice is though (maybe it's just the angle) but the crown in the QC Pic looks a bit thicker.

I noticed as well.. I have a replacement crown if looks that bad. But, the damn thing looks spot on overall.
Though from this angle it looks acceptable:

Mine is an older replica from H factory (M series) but for your comparison purposes.

I do think from the back angle, the crown on Noob doesn't look bad at all. So hopefully it's just the angle from the front.

The logo engraving on the backcase was good on old v6f / xf, maybe it changed to gen in different series, but it seems the noob put it in order compared to the M series.

Yes, I wanted to ask sukwonee , taking this opportunity, to take a photo of your hf lume at an acute angle, opposite the light source, so that the structure and height of the sausage can be seen. I've heard a lot about the hf 005 doing the best, but seeing this noob and my other sausage hf models, I can't imagine what it should look like.

Let me know if I understood you correctly. See pics.

It's hard to capture this but it looks like the lume was filled into the cutout. It's pretty much flush to the dial.

That's right, that's what I wanted to see. Yes, that's perfect. The best I've seen. Now I understand why the dial is HF for 005 is best. It's just that 061/056 is completely different not only in font thickness, but also in structure. Exhaustive. :indeed:

Yeah for sure those 056/61 C and D series models' sausage models are completely different (even amongst gens as compared to 005 sausage). I just sold my Cartel 61D but I do have a 009B "L" that uses the cartel Pam 000 dial. I will try to post similar shots of it like I did with 005M.

HF 005M H-Fac dial looks dead to me in almost every aspect. The only big visible flaw when I originally got it was the crown guard shape and lever (too pointy). So I swapped mine with O Series H-Fac CG from Pam 114 - and now my 005M looks great to me. For now, I am passing on upgrading to the new Noob or XF (which looks... not as accurate as noob 005, btw)

Yes, I saw your sale, if not for CONUS, I would have been your buyer.

I really appreciate the quality of the HF, especially in relation to older models (for example, the GEN 061 has far from sharp internal corners of the CG), and I appreciate their dials twice. On my 056 the sausage is completely convex and too thin, but it looks very nice and high quality. Previously, for 005, I would choose the XF / V6F. Now I saw good photos of the new NOOB, and they clearly reached the quality. But the bulge of the lume is something that I could not forgive. Looking at your HF, I totally understand that this is the best. The only thing, there are doubts about the shape of the logo engraving on the backcase.

But from what you can buy from TD today, my choice would be Noob 005.

I agree 100%. Noob 005 looks a lot better vs XF. Loom color alone is a pretty big difference to me (XF being a tad bit too green).

BTW below are pics of my 009B "L" dial (cartel 000 dial and I had it lumed by Vaccume). Like your 056, the lume is a bit too thin. This lume is definitely on top of the dial instead of it being filled into the cutout like on 005.

Also here is a better Pic of the 005M H-Fac case back. I couldn't really find a good Pic of Gen 005M case back for comparison though. New Noob caseback does look a lot cleaner and better quality for sure. It seems though between P and M series, the design of the gen caseback has changed.

Sorry for spamming. But I found a Pic of gen M-Series Caseback. Looks pretty close to me but here you go.

Pic of gen (M-Series):
Pic of H-factory M series caseback:
And I believe below is a Pic of gen (P-series):
