dharma very nice! i still haven't seen any crisp shot of the dial, how is it? do you think that quality is sufficient? iirc the gen one has the minute markers and details in red, but this one doesn't seem like it has them.

amazing overall anyways ;)

dial seems pretty close, it's better then the silver racing dial as it's matt black like the gen, the noob silver racing dial don't have individual sunburst on each subdials.

Will a noob jubilee bracelet fit into these Daytona watches?
And if it fits will it look better and help in solving the bad looking sel issue ??

On the topic of racing dials, on Chrono 24 I see some 116519 racing dials on WG oyster bracelet, I checked on Rolex and 116519 with racing dials only comes with leather straps. Would it be correct to say they are dial swapped 116509?

damnit, i don't understand why can't noob make the correct SEL for the 116509 (white gold) and 116506 (platinum) daytona: both of these models should have longer SEL that protrudes the end of the lugs.

it's basically an instant tell with the stock bracelet, imo.

Same problem on my 116506, I'm looking for bracelet by Arf with 950pt for 116506, anyone can help me? On puretime is not possible order only the bracelet

Received my Daytona today! The sunburst gray dial and the metal bezel are an amazing combination. Yes the SELs are not the right size but I think I can live with that and it's a great choice!!

After a day with the new Daytona, one thing to confirm there definitely is a gap between the SEL and the case. This is pretty visible and can also be seen in the pictures on the previous page. However, this is a simple fix. I followed post number #17 from this thread (https://forum.replica-watch.info/forum/rolex-tudor-replicas/7683601-sel-mod/page2) and now the SELs are perfectly flush with the case seen below. Also removing the bracelet, the reference number on the case is wrong, it has engraved 116506! Looks like Noob reused the case from the platinum Daytona.
