I don’t know why you chose this thread to post this question, but I’ll try to answer: most likely, this is one of the last noob versions (before their re-releases).
Exactly is difficult to say from these photos, but it will not change much.

Noob v4 the best one, you can tell by the long micro screw

Thank You! I choose it here because of the big knowledge of Panerai. So, it's a Noob. Perhaps V4. Now I am wiser. Sorry for the bad pics.

… and also Noob Pam111 v3 to v10 is best/most accurate Pam out of the box.

I would actually say the HF005 I have compared the dial with gen (have both) and it is scary close, it has the closed case back, movements are the visual deal breaker between rep and gen. I can tell a rep 111 a mile off now from the movement alone.

Fun thread, thanks for the bump actually. Regarding the times the rep world is going through right now, bringing the "best OOTB" Pam reps is kinda heart warming.

I'd say the Noob 297 O-series was incredibly gen like IMO, at least the best OOTB Pam rep I own.

HF005 is scary close, dial is slightly better than noob 005. Noob 005 has just a little bit too thick markers. But it’s just a fraction of .mm.

Love mine! I used to have 2.

a T dial HF, and the one I still have, the M series...

The T Dial is being looked after really well.
Had a waterproof test done on it from The Watch Lab in Lakeside and it happily passed.

I would say the Hf 005 dial is a mile apart from the noob, I didn’t like the noob dial at all, it’s hard to tell the hf and gen apart. Also I thought the noob 111 went really down hill after v4. Unfortunately it got progressively worse in my opinion. They must have had a change in suppliers of parts perhaps?.
