Arrived today! Very good watch, the bezel is really better than my v2.2... however it’s going to become a 116520 with this gen dial...

Why does the hole on the black gen dial look so big? Is it supposed to be like that?

It’s not the hole, it’s the plastic box for dials. It has a rubber center which fix the dial in the box. Sorry if I can’t explain well in English. Now I post you a picture of the dial.

Well said Bro.

Just because people on a rep forum, looked at some online pics the can’t PROVE to me that that the O is wrong.

Sorry but there are simply too many gen variations (some super rare and not on google images) so who is to say the O is wrong?

Anyways hope you’re well!

Me mate. I've handled the gen countless times. It's definitely wrong. On the 116520 where you've got a longer history, maybe, but on the 116500, I've only seen one minor variation.

That's not to say it's not a completely irrational point to make. My eyesight has deteriorated to the point I can no longer see the difference without a loupe. That tells you how ridiculous a point it is. Once you see it, you can't unsee it, but unless you're looking for it, you'd never notice it.

I own a rep Breguet 7057. It has many flaws, far more than the noob. But I can't see beyond the donut O. Mad isn't it.

Can anyone please tell me if ARF has fixed the short pushers issue with its latest batch?

Pushers are good since many months already

Thanks for the reply. Are you sayig that ARF pushers have been improved as a silent update or that there was never anything wrong with them? I have an early release V2 ARF 116520 and i find that the pushers are too short compared to the gen.

I know a arf white dial is better than noob but for black dial what is a best ? ARF or Noob ?

Pushers were updated as a silent upgrade a while back, they are ok now

ARF v2. The latest batch of Noob v3 sundial thickness is gen like now but in hand the subdials are very shiny with a bit harsh sunburst.

check my pictures MScott kindly put together. The latest ARF can have short pushers.

Has anyone attempted to fix the black daytona sub dials with a matte varnish or something similar?

Got my QC pics today on the Noob v3, to my eyes looks great and can't wait to get it on my wrist. +1 for a pretty quick turnaround and smooth transaction so far with JTime!
