That's why i was curious. The casing and crownguard is from N (def. Not KW type). The dial is coffee colored and there is no violet/blueish tint on the AR.

I saw it on a trip to China last week. They had kw 111 too. My jaws dropped. I wasn't particular interested with the 111, the 417 strikes out with the coffee dial. Correct me if i'm wrong,the kw version seems to be out of stock for a long time and i remember it has faint blue AR so def not a KW. This is reinforced when the guy told me that this is new watch from N fac without me even asking.
There is no mistake it is from noob as the CG is the same type being used in V3. It could be small factory assembly but then again i thought they dont sell noob parts individually

That's why i am asking if anyone knows about it. I didn't buy on the spot cox i have the 111 and 416.

Yes i know there is a h version. Like i said the case and cg is from noob. It was only recently released, together with the new zf 312 v2 using the new p9000 layout movement.

Well, this is all academic unless you have pictures as proof.

Hmmm. Gen has blue AR. Also, I got a KW 417 from Sead 2-3 weeks ago. KW are sill outputting them but without decorated movement. Closed case back so no problem. I had to wait a week or two for mine.

Yea just treat it as academic, like when i said zf 382 is coming out with the new movement with the modified balance wheel. Nobody believed it until PT announced it on their web.

Cheers.

Actually, I received pictures (and saw some more on a Chinese rep forum) of a new Boutique Edition made by H-factory, it had a very similar case to the 111N V3 Noob, a CG with straight inner corners and VERY GOOD dial and caseback engraving. It's a confirmed HF release, and the dealer told me they're doing many models.
I was really impressed with the news and the pics also blew me away, however, it's been a week already and only Josh posted the Saudi Arabia version without any hype and no one noticed, plus I've asked a few other dealers and no one even heard about it so it's really weird!!

Josh and Andrew have a direct way with HF, as Angus with NF and other factories.
Btw good to know. Very curious to see the new caseset.
