360 and or 599

[Knifemaker]

I sent this in a PM to our Guru, and would like input from the community as well.

so time permitting, any thoughts would be welcomed and appreciated!



KnifeMaker here, I'm badly wanting a 360! Yep, I know not correct, especially the case back, Buuuutttt-----That really doesn't bother me. Not trying to pass as Gens. Just love the look!
Looking at both Noob and KW. Pure time tells me that the Noob is a better watch, but then again, he does love his Noob's. LOL!!!

What I am looking for is nice non cloudy crystal, and strong lume. As I am up there in years, and need to be able to see the time in the middle of the night when I wake up at all hours of the night.

I have a Gen. 024, Noob 111, (4 years old from Sead, and the crystal is very cloudy) and a ZF or KW 386. VERY nice crystal, and very good for vintage lume. (Seller first said KW, and after purchase, ZF) It is the DLC over Ti version.

Really shocked at just how good the crystal, case and lume is on this DLC version regardless of which manufacturer.

I've seen some fairly good prices on KW 360's lately. so wondering what you have learned on the later ones?

also, I have noticed the indices look orange in the picks of the KW. Surely this is not the case?

I decided for the 599 as in my humble opinion it has less flaws. The 360 KW has a too large canon pin - but there are tutorials that show how that can be fixed but not I'm not sure if this also applies to the 360. I'm very happy with my 599 nevertheless the color of the 360 is also very nice.
