The rubber strap looks like a RubberB

IMO one of the best OTB rep in the market

Wow! I told myself I would only build vintage watches from now on, but this is spectacular! Which version is this one and what have you done to it? That looks like the double AR prof crystal! I think I would do that mod for sure. I prefer the look of no cyclops. I also love the 2-tone Rubber B strap. The red underside really highlights the red text on the dial. Gorgeous piece!

Does anyone know if these are repped? I can't bring myself to pay more for the strap than the watch

Puretime has Rep Rubber Bs I’m sure other TDs do as well.

Is it this one? The Tudor Black Bay dual color option?

The only thing I'm not sure about is the buckle. I like that the Rubber B is designed to use your existing Rolex clasp. Very classy touch.

Yes it is

 

[Mendota]

I do like how it fits perfectly in the lugs and there's no gap whatsoever. Plus the red/black 2-tone combo looks great and highlights the red text on the dial.

I was really hoping that the V3 would have the 3135 clone movement.....that way of course you could do a Gen/Hybrid Movement..........

 

[botsyboy]

Gen never had a 3135 but you could at least fit gen hands and possibly a gen dial although dial fitment is different on 3235.

As already mentioned. Gen has got a 3235. Totally different. Winds exactly like an eta or eta clone.

Anyone know if noob would sell bezel separately and if it fits on the ARF?

 

[Smpfan]

I doubt it‘s a 1:1 swap. But if you disassemble the ARF bezel you can take it on a lathe and reduce the diameter about 0.1-0.2mm. After that the grooves will appear smaller and more gen like. Thats a good occasion for deburring the bezel, too. And you can increase the spring load so the bezel will turn more stiff and precise. IMOP no need for another bezel.

PureTime told me that this band will not fit SD43

Interesting thread, great comparisons!

If only the NOOB could get the pearl right, I feel that change would really knock it out of the park and leave ARF behind in the dust.

Now I'm confused lol. I've been contemplating buying the ARF V3 and the TD has recommended it as well.

the hour markers and the 6\9 markers are blatantly more accurate on the NOOB.

Any comments on the bracelet?

Bracelet on ARF is better than Noob.
