can you compare out of box and once you've done DW, Xtal etc? So we can see the difference it makes?

Cheers

I am not doing anything to this but taking it apart and using the bracelet and movement for other upgrades.

How did they manage to fuck this up... like seriously. Shouldn't have happened considering that they got damn close to gen with the A2836 904L release...

so i'm getting confused, is the A2836 904L a Noob or an ARF and which version pls, i'm looking for the best rep i can get, is this it? I looked at the V9 and that font is terrible and i'm relatively inexperienced! Also which is the most reliable movement, i'm not looking to mod, I just want it to last as long as possible, any insights would be appreciated, i promise this is a "who sells the best sub!" Do I have to wait for the V9 to be improved?

I love my ARF2824. Just needs the black hole crystal and it’s pretty much perfect. I’ll just service this SH3135 I’ve got and drop it in if it fits.

Is it possible to see difference between new SH and old one? Thinking of getting the five digit and hoping to get the new movement.

Sod it! All to confusing so just pulled the trigger on a SH ARF from Puretime, lets c how it pans out? I'm hoping the SH is a good choice, I reckon this might be the watch that i want to wear all the time so i figure I can replace with quality parts in the future if need be? Waiting now for QC's....

Congrats on those who jumped the gun on getting the ARF A2824! Guess its a pity because we all thought the ARF SH3135 would be a mix between the ARF 2824 and Noob v9. I guess lesson is buy from both, mix and match until you're satisfied yourself, no factory is gonna hand you the perfect rep on a silver platter, its just not their thing.

Thanks for the review though occb2 , great insight!

Your insert markings are aligned! The TCDW looks greats how Hard are they to come by now?

This is my first foray into getting a rep... I put in an order with Puretime for the 116610 LV ARF 2824 about 2 weeks ago, the payment went through the next day, but was told there is none in stock, still waiting for QC photos.... Anyone else getting the same info? Is this pretty typical?

Be patient. Our TDs eventually come thru. If you are going to get into this hobby it will come with it's waiting :)

It’s an amazing thread/review, only problem is I could see any comparison pictures from the review. Not sure if it’s the iOS app.
Thank you, I appreciate your excelente job in taking the time in doing this.

Was the date wheel on the LN crap? What's a tcv4? I want my new ARF 904L to be its best??
I don't think it was crap but I felt some numbers in the twenties were misaligned and looked 3 times magnified.

I was happy with the rest of the watch so decided to change crystal and dw.

Professor crystal makes a huge difference. Well worth the update
