So in typical British fashion despite being an amazing sunny day here in London yesterday, today is overcast and grey. Hopefully you can get a glimpse of how good the dial is on this thing.
Just to recap this is the 40mm from ARF. ChazingTime were the TD. Ordered on Wednesday, rejected the 1st QC on Thursday (wonky date / window). Accepted 2nd QC on Friday, on my wrist Monday afternoon. Astonishing speed from China to London, I was amazed.
Apologies for any smudge marks or fingerprints!

My noob YM compared to a gen I tried on a few weeks ago.
I took the time to re-align the bezel insert to center, as well as re-aligned the dial so it was center with the reheat. I originally thought my reheat was just off, but it was definitely the dial that made it seem that way. Overall, this watch is superb. There are only subtle things I noticed are different from gen, like the lume marker on the seconds hand being too small on the rep, the ROLEX font being too wide, the YACHT-MASTER font being way too thing, and the font on the bezel being a little too close to the rim. Again, little things that nobody will tell from a distance. I did luck out with the date font being centered on this model. It would have been a bigger pain to try and fix that so I was okay with just having to deal with the centering issues.

Is REP rose gold color same with the gen gold color?
Just to show how much toms updated insert mod is a must for any yms. Here is a pic of his older mod before i sent it back for an update. Really almost gen like.

Is that the Noob Platinum Dial ? Look amazing
I can’t seem to find many gen dials so may just go with the Noob platinum dial or the jf blue
Looks awesome mate

For how long do you have it and hows the gold holding? Its looking pretty sweet btw!
Only a little while. Gorgeous looking piece, I've had so many compliments already and only worn it twice. I wipe it down after use so there's no sweat or dirt to discolour it

How good is the bezel of this Yachtmaster JF? A big difference between this and the genuine?
