China dealers have them in stock and I ask for a real photo, not one from Noob. This is what it looks like.

Yes that's how they manufacture these inserts, unlike Rolex who discolors half of a one piece insert so that it becomes blue. That's why rep inserts have speed bumps. I'm sure it can be improved with a better manufacturing and assembly process but by default that's what happens

what do you think arf or noob is better?
I think noob made a mistake with font on "Rolex oyster perpetual..." on the dial

Still dreaming of a transition like this I know I know its the latest improved model and insert, but that is perfection, at a price hehe.

Exactly. Still waiting to see one Boss. Noob is advertising the true clone VR3185 GMT movement in its V11 LN and BLNR. But the timebomb movement is still in the V11 BLRO's. And $200 more. They sure know how to soak us for the best Pepsi insert, Arghh.
Jeezus I almost fainted seeing your pic, thinking for a sec that one of our beloved factory finally granted us with a perfect Batman.Still dreaming of a transition like this

Guys, is it possible to transfer the bezel and movement/dial from this "white gold" pepsi to a Noob Batgirl? https://www.intime05.co/rollie/7463-...and-stack.html

Friend rejected and received this, about as good as it's gonna get I guess. Speedbumps are still present but the insert can be changed.
Nice to see confirmation on the VR3185 movement too.

So, with the Noob having the VR but the ARF having the better bezel, I guess we could go one of two ways. Buy an ARF and install a VR (which you can purchase separate) or buy a Noob and swap the bezel, which if you're looking for an ARF bezel, you have to buy the whole watch.
This is why Im in line to get an ARF. Noob had 10 previous chances to get the insert right. Yeah they'll sell them like hotcakes but not to me...

Yes, good to know Noob isn't completely out for blood. Not unless you want a Pepsi anyway.

Damn, even ARF has waitlists now?! Man, Rolex market is crazy.
LOL soon waiting will be shorter at ADs than TDs
Not from me either, I'm going ARF and swapping the movement.
