Can't wait to see mine!! Noob really hit it out of the park with this one.
Do you find yourself using the easylink??

I usually don't open it ...

nice pic mate!

I've just came across different weights for different watches, the gen 116519LN WG Daytona on Oysterflex comes in at 159g

is the noob close to that? I'd imagine it's closer to 100g than it would be to 160..

thanks mate, that's what I thought. Sorry for bothering you, I've just re.read the first pages, where the OP has already stated the weight as well.
I guess, this is the perfect summer watch then, casual, lightweight, beauty. On the other hand it will probably not satisfy people looking for solid haptics (could be wrong here too).

Solid summer watch if you any not hanging around Daytona enthusiasts :D I have one, feels lighter than Gen WG version (tried at AD). The gen gold has a good amount of wrist weight to it. Also WG shine compared to stainless is different. Probably not an issue since the gen is way less prevalant in public. In the end, this is Noob's best daytona OOTB, they have nailed the dial. I hope they can do the same for the 116500 dials (one can surely wish) ;)

As far as I know the only updates to the previous V2 is the updated ceramic bezel and the easylink. No changes to the dial at all.

What are the problems or flaws of the dial in your opinion?

The O in ROLEX is too round. Lacks the serif of the gen and looks oddly spaced, otherwise it's fantastic

The weight difference with the gen one is not noticeable, unless you own a gen and you know the weight or you hold them in your hands

Has anyone tried to order the updated Noob easylink clasp from a TD? I've got one of the earlier 116519 and the lack of easylink bothers me.

Would an ARF clasp fit in its place? The Noob clasp isn't great tbh.

I had deeply believe they use a wrong typo on this dial and the marker are a bit bright compared to gen

Hi,
I just received my QC pics and it seems like the bezel is off.. What do you guys think? Should I accept/refuse/ask for CF install?
