You asked about the inserts not the watch. Going by qc pics only the noob v9 is better as the case is better.nobody has the arf in real life and only 2 people on reddit has the v9.

I've just ordered one V9 Black 3135 at Trusty Time. As soon as I get my QC pictures I'll post them here to get comments about the insert!

All of this talk about crowns , lugs, and rehaut -
My question is about the crystal. The biggest annoyance with my VRF hulk is the lack of AR on the cyclops. That’s one of the biggest tells.

How does Noob and ARF compare ?

The ARF SD43 has it (albeit with a blue hue)

Lack of AR on VRF cyclop? For me has VRF the best AR available from all submariners. It has slightly lower zoom factor, about 2x only, but is much better.

I want my watch to last long, thats the only thing i care. Should i go with 2836 or 3135 movement? This will be my first purchase, i don't have any experience with both :)

If thats the only thing you care about then no matter which version you choose, you should consider getting it serviced as soon as you get it. The 2836 seems to have less problems out of the box than the 3135 though.

I am definitely going to do that! Thanks for your answer. But what about, lets say both is going to come to me with some problems in it that needs servicing. I heard its also harder to fix, find pieces for a 3135 is that true? Sorry for noobie questions :D

the SA3135 is hard to find parts for but the SH3135 should be fine. Either way just service it and it should be fine.

Read around the forum. There are a couple outstanding members on here that can service it for you. You will need to send the watch to them though, obviously.

If we believed everything this guys tell us, then he would be the king of all dealers and every other dealers out there is an a**hole.
My point is I would take what he says with a big pinch of salt.

I agree. At least the guy was nice enough to inform his customer that his v9 insert is misaligned haha.

$150 price jump for about a $20 jump in production cost. That’s starting to sound closer to gen.
