I love this watch! I am considering getting the green one! Any feedback on the black version? And you went through puretime correct?

Yup only puretime has them , It’s actually nicer than I thought it would be. The dlc is matte all around, no polish.

How’s the durability of the finish?

Beautiful piece!

Hard to say, it looks tough as nails but who knows. The finish really looks thicker than any I’ve ever seen

I think you can have the dlc done however you want from blaken. This particular limited model may be and exception but I’m fairly certain you can even get grey dlc. The noob does look great though. I really like the finish because it’s all matte, was originally going to franken but it’s pretty good already.

Yeah, Blaken will do whatever you want. The limited single red was done with polished sides, not that anyone in the wild will know. There weren't many of these out there.

I’ve got the new vrf blaken coming too so we’ve got the shiny style covered. The oxf just looks rugged. Something different

Ah yes, the Yachti. I was hoping for a Sub with polished case sides.

Well I think the noob one that dude posted is polished sides bro. I’m tempted myself

So you planning on putting that dial on a 2836? I pulled the trigger on the noob, knowing myself I’m gonna want a gen dial and hands, already have the insert. Can it be done? Everything I’ve read says no way but there was a dude that got all that on a 2824 arf dj 41.

You can put a gen dial on a 2836, you have to clip and reglue/solder feet. Gen hands no.

My blue dial is already on a 2836, easy swap in.
