I read in here that people are looking for ARF dials. I know from Domi that he has some and he could also do the modding.

Domi can do the modding, but he doesn't have arf dials.

He installed mine last week. Bought it from a contact, but Domi doesn't have any.

Thanks for your insight.

Really on the fence here.. not sure whether white or black, my heart says black with the ceramic bezel but I know i'd also like white and maybe even with a with stainless bezel too.

I'm fussy: the things that are important to me above all else is the shape of the case and crown guards and the quality of the bracelet and clasp and overall feel of the watch.. and a good movement that is not going to offer some degree of reliability. What do you enthusiasts recommend I get to satisfy my needs? black, white, ceramic, stainless, arf noob?

Thanks for your help! Ordering this evening before I change my mind!

IMO a great way to go is:
Noob V4 as base
ARF white dial and bracelet
CF bezel
Gen or genlike crystal and gasket
And a full movement service

instead as regards the black 116500 what are the differences from v3 to v4? beyond the bezel, is the case identical?
I then wanted to know if the noob bracelet differs so much from arf ...

It’s not HORRIBLE.... in general it’s a beautiful piece. What factory is that from, do you know? I have a 116519 (noob v4) coming. QC pics of the 5 lines looked a little thick (I’m not generally as selective as a lot of the people are on this topic), but I’m curious what it’ll look like on the wrist. Thanks.

Thanks! Are you enjoying it? Good build in general? I was always curious, some other factories mention a metal strip in the center of the Oysterflex rubber band, but no mention anywhere about noobs... I ask also asked my TD about it and she didn’t know. Can you tell if it does? Congratulations again!

This watch confuses me :)

You have a aftermarket dial that does not have a correct 116500 layout, but more correct to the 116520, and you have 116500 bezel.... And you are advising people what's "gen like" :)

As they say on the (genuine) Rolex forum - 'put the loupe away and enjoy your watch' and 'if you want perfection buy Grand Seiko or Patek'
