About to join the club. Franken in the works.

Gen bezel BP dial

Couple shots gen vs noob. Have to say noob is close as far as color. Gen is not mounted to the watch.

Great comparison pics bro. The gen plat markers really stand out. Noob markers are whiter and thicker. The green color is closer than I realized.

Thanks!

Yes 904 noob.

Gen hands
Gen crystal
Gen dw

serviced sa3135.

The BP dial is impressive. Debating on swapping for gen markers.

Nice..great set up...noob V9 color was much closer than ARF in my eyes. ARF was a tad darker...in the sun though...gen has that emerald green that no rep can produce..sell me your bp dial if you don’t put on...

I’ll be using the BP dial.

I picked it up from my dealer for $70 shipped a bit steep but worth it in my opinion.

I can get the gen dial but it’s $$$. I’m doing good on price as far as the build goes, so keeping it reasonable.

ARF is not great.

Noob mounted ARF in the middle gen on top

Have a set of gen markers probably going to swap so the gen hands match nicely.

Thanks again.

I have an ARF bracelet on the way should have it end of next week.

Mine as well will be with me soon! I heard ARF bracelet + Noob clasp is the way to go, but I will check when I have both in hand! Have fun building that beauty!
Thanks for the pics! Glad I asked Spongebob to mod a VRF insert and not Noob or ARF :)

So think thread is making me want to join the club more and more ha!
Done a lot of reading and I want an a2836 movement and either the VRF max or a noob v8, I have heard that the numbers are too white on the VRF and the noob is hit or miss with SEL’s.

What is the gerneral option of choice? Also I have reads that the 904L steel isn’t any different to the 316L

Sorry in advance for the lengthy post

I‘m awaiting a VRF Max edition at the moment. The Max edition has got more silverish bezel engravings and an A2836 inside. Very anxious. Hope the watch will be in the postage at the end of the week. When it arrives I will join the club, too.

Here‘s a approved QC pic of my watch.
