Btw here is a quick comparison of the cases between old 2824 noob and the current 4130 noob. While the pusher angle and length is perfect, the side profile is much better in the old case, just look at how flat the lower edge of the current noob is, makes it look more blocky:

Thanks guys but it is a Franken. Older thin case a2824 Noob with gen APH dial, gen bezel, gen crystal. Will have to transfer the goodies to the noob 4130 soon.

Yes bro. Buy new Noob ;-)
Wonderful parts

Is the bezel intentionally rotated 90 degrees?

Or maybe it has a special rotatable bezel? LOL...

It’s the new hip way to wear a Daytona in 2020... equivalent to wearing your hat with the brim rotated 90 degrees in the 1990’s

This was exactly what I found as well. The noob 4130 case is almost like a GMT it's so sharp, the old noob and even JF had a really good curvature

Is it difficult to model the case of the new Noob to obtain a more gen like curvature?
