Talk to your TD, this is how they look for a 116500 built

This picture of ARF 116500 dials was posted in this thread (5) months ago in October 2018.
I was just wondering guru, if you ever used the Black dial to build a 116500 Noob with an ARF dial and Ceramic Bezel?

I have seen pictures of your other SS Daytonas and your Gen 116520 dial with a Ceramic Bezel, but nothing with this Black ARF 116500 dial?

Wow the gen looks so much better. The dial and bezel on the Noob look so dull when you put them up beside each other like that.

 

[Bobi01]

Yeah and subdials are much darker on noob

If the Movement is the same size as Gen, why is the Noob caseback thicker here?

[Bobi01]

If im right,gen is 12.2 and noob is 12.7

Makes sense as Guru has said that the newer Noobs have a better gasket that lowers the Crystal and makes the Noob thickness the same as Gen.

But the clearly thicker caseback and the 12.7 mm thickness on the Noob in the Video doesn't make sense.

the gen is at a angle making it look thinner

No, if you follow the link and watch the Video, the Noob caseback is clearly thicker...

I checked with my gen gmt. The caseback on the gen has a gentler slope at the edge after the knurled section. Whereas the noob Daytona and yatchmaster has a caseback with higher gradient slope around the edge. Definitely can tell if compared side by side. This is weird. All TDs say it’s same thickness as gen but it can’t be as you can clearly see from the picture of the 2 Daytonas side by side. Anyone can explain this obvious difference?
