Thanks for your help sir!
so a gen stem will fit a noob movement?
thanks for clearing this up.
the chronos stopped working and from time to time the whole watch stops working.
it seems like there’s something with the keyless,after adjusting the time again the sec@6 possition start ticking again after i have screwed the crown back.

Just so you know, the side profile for the steel vs WG (which is what that silver dial goes with) are very different. Insta-tell. Not knocking your watch, but just for awareness.

Yeah, aware of the fact that side profile on Precious metal Daytona is different. It is barely visible on wrist though when you look directly into watch dial. My comment was mainly on the fact that the Grey Dial goes well the OP's watch.
Hi guys would like to ask is it my eyes or is the chrono hand not centred slightly? But on the second photo the chrono hand looks to be in alignment.
And lastly was the V3 bezels H0UR or HOUR? My understanding is it H0UR or am I mistaken?

It could be the angle of the camera when the picture was taken which is why in the first picture it's not centered and the second picture is centered. And the bezel is fine, it's a v3.

More importantly your crown at 12 on dial is well aligned, and SEL have pretty good fit. These are the tiny thing that so hard to mod, if inherited. If any more, I'll ask for 45deg angle shots to check recess on end links.. But recess have been pretty good on most of the V3, quite a bit step up from 2.2 and earlier.
Bezel fonts won't be an issue once you replace with CF bezel, stock one have to go in all case... CF miles better.
And chrono hand can be refitted nicely when servicing movement.
My 2ct
No, Look at the L and the way the angle of the white part goes crooked.
the stopwatch hand is not centered correctly, but that was the case with m v3 too.
It's a simple fix, the watchsmith can open the watch and center it, done after 10 minutes.
He also centered my bezel correctly so everything aligns correctly also.
I don't think it's a big deal to have QC here since it's been slow on this thread lately anyway, as long as its not someone just posting a photo and saying "QC pls"

Hi guys,
On one of my posts on the newbie side, they said that the 116500 Daytona noob v4 has been released and that there is a waiting list. So far after digging through multiple Chinese websites, I can't seem to validate it or find any changes. May I know if what they say is correct?

don’t worry, if it does come out and they change something for the better they will make sure there’s a flaw somewhere; they’re not in the business of making perfect reps. If you want the best possible you will always need to mod.
