Who currently makes the best 6 digit 114060 LN no date sub?

[AgentPena]

Hi guys, i'm caught in between the Noob V8 3131 and JF 3130 114060 LN. As I am not familiar with 6 digit subs and its accuracy, which one of these would be a better watch? I noticed that the JF comes with SH3130 while the Noob is a decor A2836 to look like a 3131. Could this mean the A2836 crown height is not like gen?

Most important aspect to me is the looks and finish, not quite whether it replicates the gen movement. Would like to hear from seasoned opinions.

The answer is the NOOB V8 !

 

[ziggycharly]

Noob v8 however I'm personally holding out for a v9/ ARF version with the poor insert on the v8 putting me off

I went with an ARF 116610ln, swapped to gen 114060 dial, and took the crystal from a leftover V9 noob and removed the cyclops. Heart is 2824. Water pressure tested at 5 atm. This was the best option for me as for budget and time.

Hi, how does the v9 rehaut align with your gen dial?

Remember it’s an ARF watch, but besides that it’s pretty close and aligns well. I had to cut the feet off the dial, actually bought the dial this way, saved on price as I scoured the net for it. Then to install it on the movement I had just removed the calendar parts, not necessary, and had used cement glue to glue it onto the movement.

Thanks

Vvvlllooo I think it's wiser to follow his opinion. The SA3130 can't be maintained if anything goes wrong with it if not mistaken? And is not replaceable with gen parts?

For a good run, I think V8 Noob no date sounds like a wiser choice?

 

[pattyshack]

I'm in the market for a no date sub. Should I hold out for a v9 or will the v8 suffice?

Trust me when the v9 comes out you'll wait for a v10. Just buy it as it is now, it's perfect and nobody would be able to tell it. Get the 2824, less headaches

I'm planning to order a noob v8 no date 2836 movement and replace the dial with a bp no date dial, arf hands and ARF 904L bracelet to have perfect SEL. Is this possible?

If you're willing to go through that process why not. But if it was for me, I would just wear it. Nobody is going to come with a loup and have a look at your watch in my opinion.

The v8 is already pretty Damn good

Are you sure that the bracelet is going to fit?

 

[garnier]

Yes, and with much better sel, I've seen some pictures here in the forum

I have a V8 and had a v7 before. Solid watches and there's no need to spend all that money when the V8 out the box is a cracking good watch. Only let down is the sel not being recessed as much
