Noob V4 Daytona's

[XLR8R]

Daytona color is still orange or I got bad eyes?

To me looks tad darker grabbing pics from the video gonna post them soon

Black dial sub rings are still too shiny.

the white dial finally has been fixed. The "zenith" subdials were ugly as fuck.

But the black one? seems the same as a v2.2, and ARF 116500 black dial is still better

It looks less shiny compared to 2.2 to me. Forgot to watch video because of the stomachace gonna watch and upload the pics as soon as possible. But looks like small holes on endlinks are back and hand finishing looks rough.

Agreed. The black dial still looks abit too shiny compare to Gen

I just purchased a noob Daytona 2.2 with all ARF upgrades in M2M. Should I have waited it out for this?

No-one can say for sure. At the moment there's no release date for the V4.

Id say wear your watch and if the "rumored V4" ever gets released you can then decide wether to buy or not.

Thanks for the input
I’m pretty excited about the purchase. I’ve had my eye on the Daytona’s since they first released the fully functional movement. Finally pulled the trigger.

Really nice XLB8R !

It hurts my heart though to see him pick the gen dial with his bare hands haha!

 

[McPeace]

Thank you very much for those pics! Looks quite good IMHO ... good enough for me to grab one once they are out

 

[Zenth]

Totally beat ARF!!

 

[mari115]

This doesn't look like an ARF dial at all

 

[mari115]

Also, looks like they are still using that ugly ass white gasket for the crystal, that creates that ugly white reflection in the border of the crystal

V4 confirmed !!

That sounds like a very sweet build. The ARF dial is still considered the best out so far, and there’s no certainty how the Noob v4 is going to come out, whether it will be stock, and whether the dial will actually be better than ARF.

Only thing I’m not sure about are the ARF hands you mentioned. I don’t believe the noob movement accepts ARF hands. But I could be wrong about this. Did the seller mod the hands?
