BTF full precious metal models are out!

[rolexlover79]

Is it just me or the case shape for precious metals is totally wrong on these and they used the same case shape as the steel models?

Case shape for full gold models is correct. Only 116518 (strap models) White Gold and Platinum models have a different case.

I stand corrected then, thank you for the explanation!

And rose gold. Basically easier to say that only the yellow gold models have the same case set up and all other metals are different. :lol:

Thanks! It will be great to review it in-hand but the QCs are promising.

Hont asked $728 USD with free shipping.

I contacted Hont and he told me $738 w/free delivery. He also said that he currently has NO inventory and is waiting for the factory to send more. He also said "Factory not have too many for sale". So it appears that for now, supplies from the factory are very limited.

How does the BF all gold Daytona compare to an all gold Noob Daytona that were more expensive?

I can’t speak for BF but Noobs gold is garbage. All of mine faded rather quickly. My other gold reps on the other hand have held up great (all with proper care). I am curious to everyone’s consensus on BTFs gold color. Spot on? Too “orangey”? To me they look solid in the pics we’ve seen thus far but of course holding judgment until fellow members get their hands on them.

Nikz19 says "Gold color totally sucks- looks very brassy"

Its a beautiful rep, you can have it, use it and send Nikz to replate if you dont like the gold tone. Its cheap compared to SS version (considering this is + gold plated), so there is a room for spending some $ for a good replating job.

Do we have any info regarding weight on these?

They will not be substantially different from the SS ones, which were in the 141gm ballpark.

Dial on the right is RB dial. Stock BT on the left, colour is too light.

Where would one acquire an RB dial? The stock one is seriously inferior.
