My build:
- arf case
- arf bracelet
- vrf3135 movement
- bp dial
- gen bezel
- gen insert
- gen xtal
- gen dw
- gen crown
- gen tube
currently the watch is getting the BP dial markers swapped to arf ones.
for the case and bracelet i used arf because for me, i like the SELs to be even and gapless between the lugs. I heard the noob case + arf bracelet is a hit or miss, and i wont bother to give it a try. Noob case is $230 usd from TDs, so yeah, taking the safe route lol.

Great build! I have a very similar one but slightly different:
VR3135 case modified to 1:1 - the VR case holds the moment just like the gen and is same inside also like gen unlike noob and ARF. You can get whatever little remains modified to gen spec. ARF has boxy lugs and CG aren’t the best. If you’re going all out, you can even get a custom serial number engraved (I didn’t do that).
Gen 3135 with bleu parachrom spring
I also put the ARF bracelet, nice tight SEL, got it recessed while the watch was being built.
Rest everything is same as yours gen Insert and bezel, BP Dial, gen xtal etc.
OP, yes, that’s the BP Miyota Dial. Your TD should be able to get it for you.

Its still a work on progress, i still dont know how it look until its done. If the arf didnt turn out well, i would pick the best rounded sharp edges on the markers and ask my modder to relume the markers and hands so that they are the same color. I’ll def post a pic when its done tho.
About the vrf case and the arf bracelet, my vrf bracelet have this little squeky sound which isnt oiled yet. But, i didnt bother as i bought arf case n bracelet already.
