Both, noob now and ARF later. Compare the two and then sell the other, win win.

I did not hear that ARF was working on an ND Sub.,,,, it might be a long wait so get what you can for now.

Or maybe Noob V8 with 904 SS.

I'm debating whether to pull the trigger on the V8 ND as well .To be honest 904 SS doesn't make much difference with brushed watches (IMO) . I'm hoping for a glut of info in the next few days to help me make my mind up.

I think that would be great if Noob make in 904 ss like the date version.
That's why I like the ARF.

Angus said he didnt hear anything about ARF having the ND in the pipeline. So I would go for the Noob. Thats what i did.

Well, i am very happy with it - great SEL, good insert color, perfect bezel action.. if you are nitpicking, there are still no rounded 3 6 9 markers and still a long "=" sign.

I would say the v8 is only a very good qc'd v7, but for me it is still a very good rep!

Can’t really notice much diff between v7 and v8. A TD once told me, it’s just “marketing”. Version after version with minor improvements so as to make the customer buy and buy. If they made a perfect version, the sales will not continue. Just buy which ever version you are happy with. There is no end to the “V”.

The above is from a 116610 - but the gen 114060 also comes with double engraved rehaut (and also without) - we should stop being so obsessed over small details, we risk losing our minds ;)

I'd wait for the ARF
SH3130, 3D Hands, 904L... I'd just add a gen insert/complete bezel assembly
