Looks like CF really made an effort. Lume looks obvious at first glance, not sure if it's due to lighting in those photographs.

but the script of rolex and chronograph etc they look very different to me.. and I'm curious of black dial, if they are capable to make a right shinning of counter.. maybe for made a decent 116500 or 116520

The white dial needs to be a warmer shade of white.
Other than that it looks like a good release - not so thrilled with the price though.

Alright Gentlemen, here is a high resolution comparison for you to chew on, and then argue about.

So one photo does say alot. The subdials look great. The text looks great, color of white dial looks fine (some have said that Rolex changed from a warmer white to stark white this year)

Things that are off
Lume indices shape looks off
Lume color looks off (could be lighting)
Bezel insert front looks a bit thicker, which I happen to prefer on the CF!

Looks great. The only things I see that differ from gen are the following.

-Dial markers have thicker edges around the lume on Gen
-Dial Font is darker and bolder on Gen
-Insert Font is thinner on Gen
-Daytona Font is darker on Gen
-Case back looks odd on CF

overall the case looks great and will probably be the best OTB rep Daytona if the QC’s hold up

Not sure if its the post-processing, that might be why the DAYTONA font looks darker on gen. On other pics, gen seems to be bright red also.

It looks good. Far better than the noob. The case still isn't right but it's an improvement. Mismatching lume never bothered me till I got a Sinn U1.
