I tried looking too and was not successful. Reviewed many examples on eBay, Chrono24, etc, to no avail. I don't believe the variation existed that reflected CF's version of the dial. I agree it offers some balance, however, we buy reps because they are representations of the genuine beauties, and regard accuracy as being the best of achievements for a 'good' replica.

I have some hope that CF will correct and/or maybe BTF (or some other factory) will come out with an arabic Daytona dial as well.

Not always. Sometimes I prefer the rep over the gen.
My CF Racing dial was delivered today. I want to call in sick so I can go home early to open the package lol.

CF, so it has the 4/6 tick flaw. But on the wrist, it does not bother me. As said many times, we all have our tolerances.@e1phantom - Who makes the dial and from who did you order it from? Pics would be nice.
I ordered from a non TD.

Found a couple of parts others might be interested in. They look decent IMO, obviously minute and hour hand have limited use. Maybe trade to someone who got first batch 116506 with black stripe hands.

Wow thanks for sharing! Would you say that vsf bezel is enough improvement to swap? I have the blue dial BTF and I’m kinda disappointed with the bezel engravings

I would need to replace the BTF bezel, the numbers are too close to the triangles/line track. YMMV. The one in the link looks much better to me, assuming you get one like the pic. You can ask for an actual QC before purchasing.
I really hope CF or ARF correct the error. It's so simple and obvious (to me) that I'd expect it in V2. Then I'll buy 2 (helps to have a spare in the rep world).

I live in these things. I'm on my feet all day (physical therapist) and these things are the best things my feet have met in years.

Nice contrasting colours but man…that is one very busy looking dial, especially considering that’s it’s also a small area to be cramming so much into it.
