What maker is this mate, it has individual sun bursts...

It's an ARF bro. It's been available for two years. V2 is current but even the V1 dial has individual sunbursts. If you weren't aware, ARF Daytonas use modified A7750s that achieve near gen slimness by removing parts that render the 3 and 9 subdials useless - they are frozen. The big chrono hand works but no subdial counters increment to record timing progress.

Sorry dude, I completely disagree. I'm okay with the black subdials, thicker case and the typical soft ARF lugs. But the bezel insert is 2mm off each direction. It just looks silly. I have seen DHGates of this model with perfect bezel alignment. I'd also like to see a gen that has the insert off by what seems like two or three clicks. This is out of Rolex's QC range for sure. It would irk me looking at it but hey to each their own.

All of them are like this. It has been like this for a long time and it's not one or two. Every ARF has this issue.

Heh it's not the end of the world, just not for me. I'll check the model in a year or two and see if Noob or ARF progressed with the rep since.
