Hi everyone,

I have a V7 black. And I want to buy from PureTime a new bettter insert for it.

- Which one you like or recommend? V8 or ARF?

- I f it's the ARF, would it fit on a Noob V7 bezel?

Thank you!!

ARF - GEN - v8

I have seen that smoke preffers the bracelet and clasp in the ARF, and the rehaut in the V8. But nothing about the insert itself.

ARF numbers look whiter and fatter in pics. But I don't know if they are "too much"

I like the arf insert.cant say about the hulk arf insert as I've not seen it next to a gen but looks good.the only flaw I see is the number look a bit thick but that maybe the pics

Any idea if ARF will fit onto a noob? bezel+insert

I've sent an email to PureTime asking that same question. They normaly respond me in the morning. Tomorrow I'll post their answer here.

They've told me the V8 fits onto the V7 for sure. Is exactly the same piece, thay said.

And just with the pictures, what would you try? for a black one... ARF or V8 insert?

Arf - gen - v8

I think the GEN is right in between the ARF and V8 size numbers.

Good luck trying to just get the insert..... Noob won't sell the insert alone, and I'm guessing ARF will not either.

I decided to order a VRF Hulk insert... I’ll send more pics once it arrives.

Looks perfect! Where have you ordered it? Do you think it would fit in a V7 case?

smoke of course the GEN is the best! Hahahaha! Do you think a GEN would fit in a Noob V7????

Today the people of PureTime told me the only sell the V8 insert. The ARF insert you have to buy it with the whole case.

So I have to decide between a V8 insert or an original if I could find one. :rolleyes: Or an ARF.... also if I could find one.


Edited: There is an original black ceramic insert here in case anyone is interested. 800$ For me is too much.

I just got my QC pics from the ARF 116610LN. Looks amazing. The bezel number colors look great. Can’t wait too compare them with a real one.
