Swap or Sell 116610LN

[Cipuskio]

Dear All,

i have a Sub Noob v7 Sub C Date with a Prof 'black hole' crystal fitted... now considering i have also a Gen one i'd like to swap the dial and the bezel in order to have something new.

what is your suggestion ? keep it and start the modification or sell it and buy a new LV ... starbuks or hulk ....

thank you for your help

Depends on you. Are you very particular in it looking Gen like or just decent enough . You can find VSF cases in our parts section. The noob cases were not very good. Other option is buy a new ZF or clean Sub.

Thank you for the reply, of course if i can get something more similar to a Gen I’ll be happier,
from what I understand the one i have even with the prof crystal and the aftermarket bezel is still not so good because of the case right ?

The most popular one is the VSF, it pretty much nailed the 116610LN and the watch feels very similar to a real one too, no upgrades required.

If you can find a VSF then go for it. If not the next options are clean and ZF.

Personally my go to mods are Gen crystal and Gen hands. Replica hands will never be close to Gen because of the White Gold the Gen uses.

One is gen, one is VSF, and the other a stock standard Noob v7. If you can find a VSF with the correct Rehaut (first "R" alignment), there's no question. I believe the VSF will also be better for modding with gen parts, as I'm guessing your Noob has a 2836.

Gen middle.

Gen middle.

Nope.

 

[Yogibear]

Nope.

How does middle have a rehaut finish like that? The top rehaut I can't see but the bottom ain't it.

Top to bottom is Gen, Noob v7, VSF.

Nicest noob rehaut I've seen.

 

[SS72]

Close up of the Rehaut. But, I just double checked and it's a v5, not v7. I have both and got them mixed up.

Yea that's the ugly noob rehaut I'm used to lol

 

[SS72]

Here's a genuine one. And an excellent thread on 6-digir Subs with the double line Rehaut.

thank u all for the comparison, very helpful. according on what you explained i think I will let go my current one and i'll look for a vsf on some trusted dealer sites.
then i will look for some little mods....
