New Noob daytona 904L V2

[Mancster]

Thinking about making my 116500 white dial available on M2M for sale. It's a ridiculously gorgeous watch but I'm not sure I'm suited to it. Pondering

It will be sold in minutes, I was told by Intime just earlier this morning that both dial colors are out of stock and they have no idea when to expect more.

Thanks for that, I was wondering how would one go about adjusting the bezel, is it even possible (or worthwhile) for a beginner? Thankfully it’s the bezel and not the dial misalignment I guess!

Wait until you get the watch and then decide. You won't believe how small this watch looks compared to these blown up pics on the screen I don't think you'll even notice it...

Here are QC from V1 and latest V2
I am still not sure about the color of the subdials, they should be matt.

You are the one that taught me that the Black Ceramic Dial 116500 sub-dials should be a matt silver finish.
The Black 116520 SS Bezel sub-dials are more shinny. No one else ever seems to mention this point.

It is difficult to see in pictures, but I found one that illustrates this difference very well.

Both are Gens btw...

Just ordered the noob v2 116520 with Puretime, hopefully these are still in stock. Black or white, gen dials going on so doesn't matter.

Those macro shots can easily turn nothing into something.

Hi guys,

Just received another QC from my TD and wanted to run it by you guys, is it V2? Also... everything about this watch seems to be excellent except for the fact that the indices seem to be misaligned?

Full QC: imgur.com/a/KjyUuXD
Dial only: imgur.com/a/y6XZuOT

Previous dial: imgur.com/a/5RwANo8

The previous watch wasn’t bad only thing is that the indices didn’t quite line up? (Also the bezel).

ive tried to take snippets of the image to show what I mean but not sure if I am being too nitpicky given this is a rep after all.

Could the experts please chime in and confirm if the dial is indeed a V2 and also if it’s just my eyes playing tricks showing it misaligned/slightly rotates.

It's a V2. And a good one too. Bezel is a weeee bit misaligned, but indeed acceptable.

Great pictures, and it is a really good looking watch, but please tell me what makes it a V2?

The R and the extra space around the O in ROLEX makes it look like a V1 dial to me ssouthall6 ?

This is a QC pic I got in the end of 2018



The subdials appear to be thicker. At least that's what I see, but I might be wrong. It's happened before

Yes, that is in my opinion, a thicker subdial, corresponding to the V1, or V2.0 if you want to call it that. The way that I feel like I can tell is by looking at the separation between the numbers and the end of the subdial. The number size has not changed, and are true to size, therefore if there is more separation, then the subdial is fatter.

Hope that helps.

Nailed it !

Well it looks like it's the v9 116610 all over again.

Mancster seemingly gets the only noob 116500 with a decent dial

Maybe it’s just me but to me seems like the gen and the arf dials are more on the ivory side whereas the noob is white

Guys,

Do I have permission to share a QC photo of an ARF Dial. I have already accepted based on pics here, but now I’m hesitant I truly got an ARF!!

 

[xartan]

AFAIK there is no problem with that after you accepted. You’re not allowed to upload a bunch of QC pics before accepting asking for opinions with no specific concerns in mind.
