Hey there everyone, I ordered one Noob Daytona SA4130 Ceramic with white dial, had this before and want it again...
The second one for I paid is a full gold ARF but I am between the green dial or the "Newman" black dial.. what you think? I am leaning towards the Newman dial to be honest, let me hear you thanks

Hi Efthimis, for me 100% the black Newman dial. It’s timeless. The yellow gold already enough gets attention, and the green just makes it louder, where the Newman dial is classy and sporty. Love the red hand too

What really hurts my eyes with the Newman dial (on the pictures you showed) is that the subdials seem to have a different gold hue. ...but maybe this is just the picture angle.

Love the green one, it's just as classic.

Very partial to the green dial - the gold subdials on the Newman just don't do it for me. The Newman is actually louder to me than the green dial.

I just can't see myself wearing a gold watch but if I was going to wear one it would be the green - and I would be lounging in the club house wearing it after 18 holes =)

Curious how the plating holds up over time to desk diving and occasional run-in's with doorways =)

Well I am not the best out there to provide such info as I tend to be extremely careful with my watches, you may not see any marks even after a year of wearing (on rotation, 5-6 watches altogether).. supposedly it is 5-6 layers of playing and good to hold for 5-7 years.. I have read it somewhere before in here, of course not able to confirm
