Daytona Appreciation - Post Your Daytona Pics & Opinion

[SuperLory]

to be precise @2fast4lust you are referring to the Gorilla only in this case right ?

I leave you to decide if NOOB 4130 did a good job or not...... on right is my 2011 gen 116509, so it has an older style bracelet and the 3/6/9 plots are different size. Difference on the wrist.....red is slightly less intense, case is spot on both for slimness of flanks and curves, bracelet I can't compare as not same but the NOOB is very comfortable ( more than my gen WG one ), weight gen is 197g rep is 142g.

To be honest, one look half asleep and you know which one is noob and which is gen...
Which is not to say Noob hasnt done a good job, just that the noob bezel and dial is far from good imho..
CF is about to release a racing dial. Let's see

And Noob had years to correct their incorrect SEL for their 116509, 116505, and 116506 models.
Instead, they didn't bother and reused the same SEL that they use for their steel Daytona.
That SEL is a fatal flaw to me.

It’s difficult to see it in real life, i just checked my panda too. But I agree with you. Someone told me the same about this before.

You can see them in this side by side for comparison.

Yes, not the panda but the gorilla bro

Ok thanks for the photos. The BtF looks nicer to me, and the crystal is so clearly. Subdials are quite shiny anyway

 

[Grapeshot]

The pushers on the BT look more accurate to me.

 

[michaelle1193]

Sorry Maybe im wrong but this doesn’t look like btf?

Case, pushers, crown, crystal, all better on Btf.
Clean dial is better when it comes to subdial thickness and matte-ness. But btf has a better 3d effect in the dial. Coronet is also better on Btf.
Movement in btf is also a little better finished, not as dirty also.

Overall a mixture of btf watch and cf v3 dial is ultimate Combo. Like it used to be with noob v3 watch and arf v2 dial.
