Amazing bro! What do you say about the bezel? Its big differens? I know gen has different light reflections specialy in low lights, more glare so to speak. But do you feel its big differens to newest clean bezel?

no bro i don't care about the other parts and the BTF base for the 116500 is perfect. CF I prefer it for 520 ;-)Are you finish with this build now or you gona go crazy, gen case, pushers, gen movment etc?

The gen bezel was the most unexpected surprise of this build, I was tempted to keep the CF V3 but in the end I gave in and bought the gen. The difference is very evident, the engravings are more precise and less deep and seem to have the light turned on inside, they are much more evident and the platinum makes the bezel more precious, the black color is more intense, "more black".
With the gen bezel watch changes!

Hi’
I am an newbie, so sorry if this is a stupid question. But why are the BTF base watch so much better than, for example the Noob V4 base? For the 116500.

The shape of the case changes, clearly better on BTF (or CF for the 520) compared to the old Noobs which had no shaping on the profiles. The bracelet I left the BTF, has perfect sel and an excellent consistency after the oil bath.

Thank you very much;-)
no i'm not interested in changing parts of the movement that are not visible. And I must in no way deceive anyone who would open the case back for an inspection ;-)
