ARF for the notch and cream white..

ARF for the notch and cream white..

Agreed, also for the size of the sub-dials and the distance from the minute marks to the outside edge.

Would this be ARF V1 or V2?

I got the Same Question. Which ARF is this V1 or V2?

As per few people I have asked this dial has properties of both V1 and V2. Some even said it's an elusive in-between V1.5 dial. I am rather confused. And can't really tell the differences myself.

If that’s the one you got from me it came from the first batch of Arf Daytona’s which would make it a V1.

Yup, that's the one!

But I have been told it looks like a v2 or has certain chareteristics of a v2 so I am very confused.

What ever it is. I like the Dial and can't wait to have the watch back from watchmaker.

Thank you, sir, for taking time to put together a very thorough review. I've been on the fence, trying to decide whether to buy the Noob v2... I think I will.

Have one noob V2 panda dial and could says it’s a very good looking one.

The king of Daytona 's

Well having seen a naked Noob and ARF dial side by side I can also say that the polishing of the hour markers and the gloss of the crown is much more high quality on the ARF. It’s just more bling bling.

Ok, so now which TD will sell a V2 dial to a poor sap that bought the V1?

 

[SuperLory]

I’ve seen 2 beautiful qc specimens but at a closer look they are v1 and I’m torn cos the TD can’t see the difference i’m talking about..

I have read many threads about Panda Daytona ARF and Noob, mostly are saying ARF has a better bezel, where I can’t figure out the difference and why, is it just the font with noob bezel being too thin?

For thr ARF subdials that don’t work, what actually happens with side clicks?
