We might finally be able to answer this question in 2020

The bezel insert is one of the biggest tells of the rep. That with the crystal and datewheel are basically everything you can see when you look at it straight on.

It’s not the same as underwater. It’s basically every lighting condition except bright direct light. This is well documented in the forum as an issue with ever rep. This is way more important than lug shape, recessed SEL, or any of that stuff people obsess about.

100% agree with you on this one, low light for any ceramic bezel is an instant tell. I have a CF bezel for my daytona and that is still pretty crappy under low lighting. I'm don't have a spongebob for a sub so pls chime in here.

Can you tease with a dial?!?!?

haha sorry no dials, the dial is ok, I have seen it.

 

[Arik dahan]

80% metallic silver 20% white, enamel color in both ..
But one needs to know how to paint without compromising the depth of the engraving..You put on paint and after half a minute soak it gently with a cotton ball so that a good color remains on the numbers
Low light image

Have a feeling ZF to be the most expensive watch, believe and hope they have put effort in it. 548usd feeling:thanks:

It’s not painted but plated so the thickness is almost negligible.

Yes they do, but first release is LV. When the batch is sold out(100pcs), LN will be released. Very hard to wait when noob 11 looking pretty good.

ZF will use the same insert bezel and dial from ZZF. Nothing new. They will have a better bracelet and case and stop. No big surprises there.

ZZF LV is the best ootb lv we can find on market right now and if they improved the bracelet and the case than probably is better than noob...

I am not saying one is better than the other, but I am certainly saying that it could be worth to give this noob a shot since from pictures it actually looks quite good. CF parts are not flawless too. Their dial is good but inferior to others in some aspects and still far from gen. It's not like you are buying the new ZF and you have a gen in your hands. But your choice obviously. If you don't like it you could always sell it here.

Now things are getting confusing, is it ZF or ZZF (v3) releasing new Subs?

ZF is bringing out a LV, ZZF will likely bring out a LN and an LV.

Shame on Noob. 11 generations later, lugs are totally wrong ... whole watch apart from minor improvements is nothing but recycled v10. They should just give up.
