If you read through the entire thread you will find that there are many many questions and issues dealing with ARF. Anyway, i am not going to be drawn into a childish argument here. If u find my posts inappropriate just ignore it.

Yes, the post COVID v3 Noob bracelets have been improved. Better over all quality and clasp improved in terms of own/close easiness (The coronet shape and protruding part is still wrong)

Has anyone been able to get a version with somewhat more accurate sub dial size? Ordered a panda 116500 from a TD and it’s the small zenith style sub dials, so i RL’d it.

Are the 116520’s (black dial) sub dial size somewhat more accurate versus the panda dial at the moment?

They are shiny thats the biggest issue AFAIK but you can get 116500 black dial and change the bezel to 116520. I have read on TRF they had the same dial at some point. Maybe someone can confirm it here

I may have slightly misspoke when I referenced the zenith style sub dials. I was more or less just saying the size of the panda’s sub dials are very small like the zenith even though it’s not a zenith.

I’d like to get a 116500 white dial but the most recent pictures I’ve seen and from my most recent QC pics the size of the sub dial is quite a bit smaller and very noticeable. Obviously modding an arf dial is a great option but cost of buying the second watch + the mod is a lot to invest. So I was more or less just curious if anyone has gotten a 116500 panda dial with correct sized sub dials

To be honest, i think its more or less impossible to find a Noob with correct subdials at the moment. The last time Noob did a dial with perfect subdials, was the v2.2, and you cant get those at TDs anymore. (Here is mine, with Clean Bezel and ARF Bracelet/Clasp)

Looks beautiful! Thanks for the info though, that’s more or less what I’ve gathered at the moment. I’d be happy to take one with even the fatter sub dials but the small ones are just too obvious. Guess I’ll just wait for them to correct this

Trust me, you don’t want the fat ones either... when the sub dial size is off on the Daytona, it’s just impossible to overlook it. Imo it ruins the overall balance of the dial, and I’ll bet you, you are not gonna be happy with it.

wait for a good batch, find a used for sale or mod it with an arf dial
