Noob Batman v9

[bajamaja]

You guys talking about that ARF will come with a better movement Is there any reliable source that ARF will come with this after CNY?

Maybe it’s just the lighting but the hour marker surrounds seem overly thick and tapered:

I just place an order for one. See what my QC pics bring.

Sure will. I gave the green light on QC so should have it soon.

one of my biggest issues with this watch is the SEL fitment. why cant they just shave down the SEL so that the lugs extend 1-2mm? it seems to look pretty good on the Hulk....arent they the same size?

I asked Mr Puretime about the new ARF, and he said: -"yes, they are working on it. and i am not sure exactly when it can be released"

Color is totally off.
Either give this model a pass or its a must to change the bezel.

Here a few picture

Would you please refer me to buy this aftermarket bezel insert?
I just got the noob and I didn’t like the current bezel color.
Thanks!

I would also like to know where to get the aftermarket bezel as mine is inbound and should be here this week.

 

[jpferry315]

Found this one. Looks better than my QC pics.

This insert from eBay is nice color wise but it has completely white numbers and also they are way too shallow.

 

[Ruprekt]

All these aftermarket inserts have there problems. Most are too shallow and have white numbers, or the wrong blue or color split. It’s a trade off as to what flaws you can accept and live with. Mines in Germany with Steve at USD plating. I’ll post when it gets back.

is there a variation of the V9 that has polished midlinks? is there any good version with polished midlinks?

Well my Noob V9 was delivered yesterday. I was able to set time, date, GMT without issue. The movement works just like the gen. I never held a gen so it’s hard to give a review of the bezel insert color but looks good to me. Not as light as in some of the pics in the thread. Bracelet was easy to size and seems very solid. It’s keeping good time and I set it to atomic clock time and is still spot on after 1st day.

Will do. I got my mail late so just had time to unbox, set and adjust bracelet. I want to do quality pics so will use my DSLR camera. Will try to post tomorrow.

My V9 does have the polished mislinks. Very impressed with the fit and finish of the bracelet. Nice flush fit as it does not have the diver extension like the subs
