there is no comparrison between ARF and Noob bracelets. ARF is miles better in every aspect . Clasp is almost 1:1 with the new 2015-2018 claps. Links are perfect in geometry. Polished surfaces are pefectly smooth and not wavy line on the noob. Also noob bracelets sugger often from deformed PCL ( polished center links ) due to the clamping process. Screws are perfect on ARF, very high quality. Sels... well the noob sel is absolute rubbish. Arf is almost perfect, still suffers from the "hump" like the sub sels but overall it's very very good. I could go on and on ...

Fantastic, I had to go for the Noob SEL and Bracelet but ARF clasp.
Would really like to hand this watch to a average Rolex wearer and see wether he has a clue.

By hump you mean the rounded edge at the SEL ?

It is acceptable

Noob sels although bad looking in general do fit better the noob case. Arf sels have bigger gaps between lugs.

Thanks for those pictures.

What did you do to take the markers off the black one and what did you use to stick it on the white one?

Just wondering in case one day I want to fix a crooked marker.

The markers pop out if you push them from the back of the dial with a sharp needle. The marker feet don't match the jf holes so I had to shave them and glue the Gen markers on the rep dial.

Nice work bro, so I'm guessing the JF 7750 dial fits in the Noob 4130?

Thanks ! the dial i've used was taken out from a Jf 23j daytona. I had to shave off the feet of course. I guess the 7750 should have the feet shaved as well .

Mr.Marbella not much to do about that sorry. Whatever you do do not try and modify the sels in any way cause most probably you'll ruin the bracelet :)

There is also a big gap between the case and the sel and between the lugs and the sel as well... What a shame . I suggest you try a diffrent case.
