Someone need to buy me a v9 hulk to review and send back

this v9 mid case is definitely better than the arf.noob if your reading this shit
you must fix the sel the arf have destroyed you in that department. Del is one of the most important parts.also lose the polished inner clasp .should be Sand blasted.and lose this 2018 dial layout as it's not period correct for this type of Rehaut engraving. Use the small ft dial layout

@smoke , so the best sub at this moment is the NEW GMF?

No I said the best most gen looking case. The rest of the sub is pretty bad apart from the bp dial they use.and I still don't know if it's gen construction. As nobody owns one.but it's a bp case and the bp cases were not gen construstion on the past.but maybe now there using 904

There are some things i don't get:

- V8s has a better looking insert than this v9 (pearl triangle looks bigger, thus better ). The insert engravings on the v8s are right justified however...

- v8s green looks nicer as well

- v8s bezel better as well. Scallops look to be milled rather than broached and have a better ( taller and narrower ).

The lugs however on this v9 are amazing.

And i'm not just talking about the shape here and lug taper, i'm also talking about surface flatness/evenness.

Just look how straight the light reflection is across:

Surface is now as good as on the ARF. No more rounded lugs with wavy faces :) .

Sel looks to have gaps but hopefully an Arf/jf bracelet would fit tighter than the noob 80k. I can confirm this from past experience.

Cgs look amazing ! Just look at the sttaight light reflection going all the way across.

CG width looks to be even as well !

It seems noob is back in town.

Arf hands are must for this.

I expect a load of threads from folks asking if their watch is a v7, v8, v8s or v9.

I'll get some QC pics of the Noob from my TD soon, then I'll decide which one.
Unless Noob has solved their insert number problems I'll stick with the ARF.
ARF will probably respond anyway if the Noob is better.

Thanks for your keen observations, andrei01
Could it be that Puretime calls it V8s and Intime calls it V9.
Of course we can't make a definitive call on Angus' pictures with black BG.
Congrats, smoke
Noob appears to be listening to you finally!
The least they can do is give you one sample of LN and LV.
My personal choice is still the ARF SH3135, but Sead was correct in telling me to hold my purchase of an ARF SH3135.
He said for me to wait for the changes that Noob will make to address their obvious annoying issues.
It appears Noob is finally listening. ARF is really in the game.
At the end of the day, the consumer wins!

So just like with the daytona we are in a situation where you need to mix and match noob and ARF to get a decent watch. What a coincidence. Almost like it was by design....

Lol, I thought the same. I am not a daytona person, but the sub goes something like this;

Noob > ARF in case
Noob > ARF bezel
Noob > ARF insert
ARF > Noob in hands
ARF > Noob SEL
ARF > Noob clasp
Any dial, crystal and dw is not good.

What's the recipe for "the best daytona" ?

Noob movement, pushers and subdial hands, ARF everything else and a load of case work!

Wow,
Thank you Noob for listening. Please get the sel fitment better if you read this and a SH3135 if possible.
Actually this is the first ceramic sub I consider buying since years. Good job!

k4jun if we were to compare the broached bezels i'd say Arf is closer in term of scallop shine.

Arf is still a better a better choice ootb imo.
