CF on left and Noob in the middle (gen on the right) - lighting can play with the insert colours and it's the same with the 2 gen Pepsi I own.

Folks would typically consider the red on the Noob to be a bit chocolatey with the red on the 18 going further than the CF.

As Mark1937 said neither is close to the gen ;) but no rep has really cracked the 'Pepsi code'

Agreed.

Not trying to give perfection, just trying to help a newbie with his question and give him something to consider.

This thing any over colour has been deep fried, skinned, roasted and pickled more times than we all care. At the end of the day, we're wanting to enjoy a hobby that we love.

I'll keep helping people as much as I can, mate.

All I can say is that I am really impressed.. and this is the first Rolex rep after maybe 4 years and after having owned and handled only genuine Rolex (mostly Subs, GMTs and 2 Ceramic Daytonas). Only minus I see is the squeaky bracelet and clasp sound (not when on the wrist though) and the very hard not to damage bracelet screws
Dial, insert, case, crystal and movement being very good or even close to excellent for a rep, this a keeper!

You’ve heard of the bracelet baby oil treatment? Its exactly what your bracelet needs and it’ll transform like you can’t imagine.

Well I am quite old in the game so yes I have done that in the past many times but to be honest I have totally forgot about it so thanks for reminding
