I received my QCs, and I like what i see aside of the misaligned bezel

Are you going to RL or fix the bezel yourself? I only ask because I have the same issue (but worse).

I have GL the watch and I will realign the bezel upon arrival as everything else looks spot on :)

hahaha, CF just a little bit more zoomed. Knowing your perfectionism, I assumed that CF and gen were zoomed perfectly alike

Hahah yeah that was zoom from eye, i didnt measured this time haha

Thanks, is it difficult to realign the bezel? Is it something a noob can do, any specialist tools etc? Or will you be sending it to your watchmaker?

Thanks.

Nope also saw that..very strange as the rest is usually aligned just fine. Hope the next batch has this fixed.

Hi friend
you had all noob versions
can you describe differences on the case and rehaut if any?

Noob case is more correct for 116520, I think that when viewed from the front it is better than the CF, while Clean did a great job on the profiles.
But these are imperceptible details on the wrist.
For sure on my franken 116520 I will leave the Noob case! ;-) Overall the CF 116500 panda is a very good OOTB watch.
Rehaut looks good. The only 2 flaws are the non-recessed sells on most of the photos I've seen here on RWI (mine is good) and the white color of the dial which sometimes (under artificial light) seems to have blue reflections. But the aspect ratio of the dial is great, truly 1:1.

A must have in the collection! :)))

I knew 116520 and 116500 gen have the same case. It is not so?

in the various gen watch forums there are those who argue that the lugs of the 116500 are a little more worn, and the asymmetrical shape evident on the 116520 is less noticeable. On my 2 franken I have the best Noob case with perfect sels
