ARF SD43 904L 126600 review (many pics)

[muiramas]

The 28 date is a common fault of this watch

The person asking this question may have wanted to see if it was widespread or limited to the first few we have seen - reason I say this, I wanted to see it too

You’re being presumptuous in that he was seeking a reason to make that person reject the watch

The presumption is on point given his need to base an opinion of the watch because of the number '28'

And why would the '28' font be any different to the rest of the DW font?

Specifically the number 28 is deformed and was up for a fix [as an other member pointed it out to you]

No it is not on point. As three members now have now said - they wanted to see if it was fixed, so they could order theirs or wait a few more weeks.

This is a standard practice when expecting something like this to happen. JF did this with their 16610; where people were waiting for the insert and SEL to be fixed

Next time please consider a quick apology and everyone would just move on

What a great looking watch. I am going to be placing a few orders in the near future and this is now on my list. Thanks for taking the time to write such a good review and post some great pictures. Add me to the long line of people that would gladly take it off your wrist if you feel it’s too big haha

Thanks. It exudes quality from the moment I saw it and handled it. Very, very solid and gen like.

Any pics of the ceramic insert indoors or with less lighting? Does it shine silver metallic, white, or the platinum/peach? Very interested in seeing it. The main reason I got rid of my Hulk was due to the terrible ceramic in low light.

I also would like to see.. 28 font was meant to be sorted, be good to see if arf fixed the issue or still rolling some out with the weird one

These were supplied by my contact in China who got them sent from his guy in the factory . There was a hold up due to the fix on the DW but it looks to be sorted now .

Theses are indoor and low lighting. The insert paint is more silver white which I thinking better because it darkens a little over time anyway. My Noob GMT insert is a darker silver looks ok in sunlight but gets lost in low light

I think it's better than the Noob version as a lot seem to want to mod the markers on the noobs due to the colour being to dark .The ArF looks nice as is imo .Hope mine arrives this week .

the same on my jf 116613 TT blue

that bezel insert paint looked really good in low-light conditions, hope the next generation submariners get this soon
I've got a somewhat smaller wrist at 6" 1/2, so 43mm SD's look too big on me...

I have just received and approved my QC photos for my watch. Hopefully will receive it by Christmas!

@m5smg2 I am born (in the summer of) 67 also [emoji4]This alone would have been enough reason to buy this watch... but your amazing review of your astonishing beauty made me pull the trigger now. Thanks!
