Can arf daytona accept noobs dial and bezel with no problem?
Alredy have arf and Im asking if someday i buy noob and replace dial and bezel so i can SEL my arf with noob bezel and dial lol, or give it as a gift to someone
I read is 1mm too wide and also the dial feet needs to be cut as they have different movements

As asked, a Noob dial will fit an ARF case

But an ARF dial is 1mm too large in diameter for a Noob case, and would have to be cut on a lathe as shown in the post that I linked above.

Arf cutted pushers only for gold models,i got arf 2 weeks ago and pushers still long

Is my ARF Daytona in this QC picture v1 or V2? Bezel doesn't seem like the upgrade but that might be due to distance, would love some input.

I would say V2 because it has the newer, shorter Pushers.

Greetings gentlemen,

I would greatly appreciate some feedback regarding these V3 BLACK Dial pictures. (This is my first watch ever, so I am humbly trying to consult with the actual experts.)

My main considerations are:

1.) It appears it has the thinner "V2.2" subdials. I just want to DOUBLE check that these are in fact the more "gen-like" subdials.

Additionally, since these are some of the very first pics we obtain for the black dial v3, it would greatly benefit the community if someone like Mr Scott can sketch out some lines and compare it with a gen (or even a v3 white* dial).

2.) It appears to have the updated V3 bezel. However, is it adequately aligned? (What do you guys think about the white paint, to my eyes it seems a little thinner more "gen-like"?)

3.) It appears that the SELs are kinda rough, in particular the bottom one.... Thoughts on them and the clasp?

4.) Dial and subdials appears to have crisp printing, but the Daytona red seems a tad too dark to me.

Any other feedback you seasoned enthusiasts like or dislike on this specific V3 watch?

Thank you very much for the help and kind attention!!!!
