i get your point, but still not as open. this clean coronet is synonymous with some precious metal older style serif font daytonas

Read the intro guide which can be found here (and pay attention to the section about Trusted Dealers (TDs):


You may also want to check out the Italian language section of the forum, since you said you are from Italy and English is probably not your first language:

Here are some close up’s of the Clean 116519 silver dial. I’ll try to get some of the noob and BTF one of these days.

How does this stack up compared to Noob? I have the Noob, and the CF looks better in terms of case finishing and construction. But the dial IMO on Noob looks better, and the crystal is absolutely see-through like BTF. I feel CF will fall short in terms of crystal clarity as well.

Anyone with a Noob and CF can compare?

Dial and Xtal you can replace down the road whereas you are stuck with the case. I think that overall the CF dial looks good. You can and will find some flaws on close inspection but from a reasonable distance it will be hard to distinguish from a gen.

On precious metal reps the weight will be the instant giveaway on close inspection anyways.

The CF 115519LN with the grey dial is a great rep right OOTB. I am in the process of placing an order for one.

Oh and it's almost impossible to get a noob at the moment so I wouldn't even bother comparing.

It's down to CF and BTF and I think CF wins this one. I have more faith in the quality of CF over BTF anyways (and so do most of the TDs).

Agreed, unless you wanna find a Noob m2m. I have two CF Daytonas and one BTF. I'll take CF over BTF.

I already own the Noob so it's worth comparing for me personally

Well then you can compare with the posted pictures of the CF or post some pics of your watch so that the RWI experts may compare the two.

I suspect that the differences will be marginal since noon daytonas are usually great. I for one would be very happy with a noob and would not replace it with any other rep unless if it is way better. You can't get a noob anymore. That alone would give me enough satisfaction to keep it.

Nice! BTF V3 has better xtal/dial but CF still has better case construction and finish. In the end it comes to personal preferences. I am going with CF personally.

All the TDs I consulted (3) and my TD of choice said otherwise but I stand corrected. I will further ask them about the BTF V3. Thanks for the info!

Cf isn't on Btf Level by a long shot bro.

Only gold color on precious metal models is better. some models like gorilla the dial is better.

Everything else btf is better.

Case, crown, pushers, crystal, movement, finishs. All better on Btf
