ARF 126334 DateJust 41, Best in the market

[Bobi01]

Looks great, enjoy in good health!! Every time someone posts a blue wrist shot, I see a different shade of it

Your top right had a bit of SEL gap. Put in some super glue (on the other side so that spring bar and bracelet pushes right) and re-attach the bracelet.

Robi01 is an expert on SEL gap fix.

Hahaha thanks bro

 

[Bobi01]

Thank you, sir! I noticed the gap too! I’ll try to do that. Thank you!

You can try first with pure glue tape and put few pieces on other side lug and that will push endlink to gap side,if that will be hard for you you can use super glue but be careful
btw very very nice example with sharp lugs like gen,this is latest batch of case with sharper lugs then old batches

Does anyone if it is an easy job to polish the brushed parts on the jubilee bracelet? With what tool would you need?

Datewheel font is awful, too bold particularly in the higher numbers, unsure how ARF continue to make this same mistake. Personally, had two of these and they seem more bold in person too. Shame, because the rest of the watch is fantastic! Good news is its an easy enough mod!

He compares ARF with gen or what do you mean? The ARF is the one with the fatest date font

Anyone with any experience of polishing the brushed finish part of the jubilee link? What product do you use?

Which one is the 2nd watch in the comparison?

The first one he compares it with is a POS. The second one however has really nice lugs!

I think the second one is the new REF version. Though the dial is bad and the bezel is tad big, I think the lugs and SEL is really great. The lugs are thin, and shaped right. ARF lugs are still bit rounded and maybe a bit too thin now? The dial color on the arf seems really nice compared to gen. But the DW on the arf is horrible and there is no substitute for gen crystal.

REF could be a great Franken base with ARF bracelet, arf dial, gen DW, and gen crystal.

so they switch 30 with the coronet and call it a new version.
apparently they still have a big stoke of the ugly fat DW.
so we will probably get stuck with this until they get rid of the whole stoke.
too bad coz it's a really beautiful and well made watch.

Is the ARF still the best ootb Datejust and is the black rhodium better than the blue dial one? Thanks!

Which color you prefer that color is better for you

I would go with the color that is closer to gen

I hope there'll be one or two more little improvements ... and not just the little crown under the 6.

1 page ago, is advice on colour choosing.

This tells me, that you didn't even bother to read 1 page ago. You post this and expect answers. Stop being so lazy and entitled and expecting others to inform you, go back and read some posts. You will even see comparisons of rhodium vs gen if you go back 15-20 pages.

Both is genlike,95% of gen, thats why i told you you choose color you prefer
