take a closer look at the number mark "18" you will see a line on the left side of the number "8" because the insert is combine by two piece which created this un-even surface

New VRF Pepsi GMT Max
- Thread starter rockdaytona
- Start date
I think noob is betterThe red looks even lighter than the VRF MAX in TD pics, which is pretty bright red as we've seen. Plus the 1 serifs are wrong. Don't see any speed bumps and the transition points are good. Cyclops distortion is there at only a slight angle off, too bad.

You don't say. But have you seen the price on that thing or the movement they use?

Noob is further away from the red colour and has a horrible transition line

Come on mate you can do a bit better than that surely.. Look at the stickers in the second photo for me
Hmmmm. Not sure if the speed bump line defect outweighs the superior colors relative to the Noob... what say thee experts?

I think it comes down to preference, for example I like the colors, transition and font of the noob insert, however the point of transition needs some work, although it's not really noticeable at all by eye.
I'd argue the point of transition on this new VRF insert is better albeit not as smooth with the speedbumps, colors aren't the best but definitely acceptable too.

While the VRF Pepsi colors are debatable (in some pics they looks great with cranberry red while in others they are off), the VRF watch overall has some issues that I can’t ignore - Date font is bad, Rehaut printing is terrible, the bezel is totally wrong (Teeth are more protruding and bezel well is shallower). However on the positive it has the VR movement inside.
Other than the 18 transition, Noob has got many things right. The red could be more cranberry like though. I also hope they have improved the bezel fitment better in the recent WG models. For now, I prefer to use the Noob as the starting base.
For those that have ordered the VRF, post some real life pics.

Since when did the Noob Pepsi become so good? Stop being delusional lads. VRF colours are far better from what we’ve seen so far and as a watch it’s far more bang for your buck.
Noob on left, gen on right. Not my picture, I wouldn’t give Noob a cent of my cash for anything but a daytona these days.
