Unfortunately still wrong SELs, and no individual sunburst on the subdials. Although the arabic figures look good shapewise they are in my opinon a tad too small compared to Gen.

I agree, shame the dial is wrong and the wrong SEL. Is like the normal 116506 noob currently is offering. I actually don't mind buying an aftermarket dial, but again there aren't any decent one either.

I wonder anyone here knows if there are any methods to refinished the noob dial with the correct sunburst?

Is 4% off now on Trusty, is odd for a new watch and is a daytona (I never seen a 4130 discounted) is already being discounted.

I guess the weight is a given as I held the gen and is very heavy. But unless you hand the watch to someone is hard to tell unless the watch has its flaws corrected (as per above) and the person can't the difference visually between platinum and steel (which in my opinion quite hard as it notnl like WG).

I have a few watches and I have never taken off a watch for anyone. If they want to see, I show them on the wrist. I think its rude for someone to ask to hold it.
I think this looks good, how many people would have seen a GEN Plat Daytona in the flesh to be able to compare, especially when you are moving, walking, etc etc, I think hard to tell.
Ive been in this game now for 13 years, and now even I find it hard to tell on the wrist of the people I meet everyday, if its a replica, unless its is junk quality Rep.
I say wear and enjoy :)

I agree, I don't take off my watches (gen or rep) usually unless they are my friends and I'm always upfront if its a rep or gen (even at work).

I can see pass the wrong size font of the Arabic numbers, but I think the sunburst annoys me. This is the reason I haven't pulled the trigger for the normal 116506 and the blue 116509.
