Apart from the fat sub-dial which is obvious in this pic, what's wrong with the counter? The alignment seems alright. A few people post ARF with bad bezel misalignment. The 120 marker was off to one side of the 6 hour marker. This one looks good.

Not sure why anyone would pick an ARF over a Noob

After owning both, the noob is hands down better in every way other than the dial and bezel, but on the wrist there is not much even in dial and bezel

with this dial the watch can not be worn. It is seen that it is a fake 10 meters away

I think if most people here stop buying the Noob then maybe they will be forced to correct the dial. :)
For me I am still thinking.

Seems there is already a Noob 126500 V2 with black dial available. I posted my QC pics earlier in this thread and it was generally confirmed that this is a V2 (or at least my watch has an updated black Noob dial), because the subdials are now closer to gen. I'm eagerly awaiting this watch, it's already shipped.

Yours is the only example I've seen of it.

It's definitely NOT an ARF dial, definitely noob and the Subdials are definitely smaller.

This reminds me of the v9 with perfect sel that about 3 people got! It exists but trying to get a TD to work out what you're talking about let alone identify it....good luck everyone hahaha

Great photos. The lighting in the first one really threw me!

I'm guessing ARF?

I think it's about how they took pictures. just tilt the clock a little and choose the right lights that change everything. I refused my yesterday. The counters were fat! as soon as you arrive, take some photos frontally and with natural light.
