Thanks. I guess part of the joy is having to wait a couple of months to get it. HaHa. I had it sent to a friend in LA, and then had to wait for him to return to Mex. The TD wouldn't ship to Mexico. The only thing that works well here, is Customs. ;-) The black and white bezels seemed to be in great demand, but I can't read the dials in certain light, but on the ice dial I can see it perfectly. So I was able to get it without too much trouble. All's well that end well.

There was more pictures (sadly i dont find them) from Kris Humphries the paparazzi guys were like 2 metres away and you could directly see the sunburst effects of the little dials. So its an instant tell thats why i know that so well :D

Personally the non sunburst subdial of the Noob is an obvious and instant tell to me, even if you only grab a quick glance on the wrist. The ARF SELs however I don't think I'd notice on the wrist unless I got a particularly good/long look at it.

I remember reading about your saga before. Glad it finally worked out for you. Makes it all the more special!

This is the model I wish somebody would rep. Love the ice blue, hate the brown. Ice blue with ICE!

Noob is the only one using the clone 4130. They developed it and understandably are keeping it to themselves.

Thanks for that - I was hoping ARF would upgrade to that movement, but looks unlikely unless they develop their own version.

Arf will never invest in full clone movement.

​​​​​​Ice blue looks fantastic though. Anyone order the arf yet ?

I don't know why everyone is only talking about the Aesthetics.
Anyone who notices your watch, especially it being a beautiful Daytona, will definitely want to check it out. The Faux movement would be a more instant tell than anything.

I love the 116506, but until NOOB comes up with a better looking one or ARF clones the movement, it 's a no go for me.
