I could not find anything on this unfortunately... maybe someone else knows more? As someone already said, Angus said that he didn’t hear anthing of an Arf no date.

That’s what Angus told me when I asked him, no ARF no date in the works. :(

What are the reasons that you were hoping for an ARF? From what I’ve read, the no date noob V8 seems to be very good

Because the recent release of the ARF 116010 it has better (according to our experts):

Hands (more 3D like, not flat like the NOOB)
Bezel insert (deeper engraving and better color)
Bracelet

I was hoping that if ARF release a no date 114060 that it would incorporate these improvements.

I understand, thanks for the Info. I’d also be interested, but from what I’ve read, it is not being worked on right now...

what are the defects compared to the gen? Thanks

Everything with noob.

I had some noob, V1 114060,V6 114060, V6s 114060, V7 Hulk, and After I had the jf V2, the best no date existing, it is there that I understood that Noob is bad. Do you remember the No date with the word "date" on the dial? With noob? This factory is crazy.

Today, I have ARF, and it's a real wonder.

Do you want to know the flaws of this watch? That's all. For the V8 no date ?

- 316L,
- Hand 2D, V9 have 2D hand ... —> arf 3D
- Dial, print policy and hour marker
- insert white, pearl
- rehaut from 2010 ? Lol stupid
- Clasp 2015 with rehaut 2010? Lol
- bracelet, it ages very badly, and yellows. that was my case for all my noob

Noob suck, go Jf V2

I just ordered an ARF 904L 116610 which comes with a date of course

I also purchased a gen NO DATE dial and a prof 1xar crystal and am ready to mod as soon as the watch comes if anybody is interested in seeing how that turns out

Very interesting approach, please share the result! I’m fully confused now, Noob V8 or JF V2... maybe just get the Regmariner no Date haha
