Good luck finding a Noob at a TD though - had one on back order for a looooong time from my favourite dealer before getting the VSF. Which I absolutely love btw. I'll be doing a close up shoot of it over the weekend, for you to have a look at and decide.

I ordered a Noob V5 last week too, and, no stock. Told the dealer I’d prefer to wait for the Noob when he offered the XF factory 111, after reading about the lime on the XF. I’m interested to see the VSF though, how’s the lume?
I had the same dilemma - asked around to a bunch of TD’s, no luck on the noob111 for about a month. Finally BK was able to get me one with his slight mods. So I paid a few extra bucks for some polishing and loctite but the watch is the noobv11 and personally I think it looks better than the XF/vsf version.

No point waiting, was told by TD no more Noob version. So I went for VSF as well.

Overall the watch looks amazing to my untrained eye - almost done with the close up and lume pics, will post by latest tomorrow morning and you be the judge. Overall, I find the polishing exceptional, the movement spot on, the strap (at least the one on the watch) extremely well executed.... but then again, I have rose tinted glasses on since I am comparing the watch to itself, a gen Blu Mare and photos I've collected from all over. One thing I'd point out on the lume, it is even and lights up like a torch but I am always hesitant to say it us the right or wrong tint, since I find photos could be deceiving. A filter here, a spot of over saturation there, and two photos do not look the same. Just my 2c's.

NOOB is better in many ways. It is always difficult to take what is now, or find what you really like. I would choose the latter.
Noob V11. Ordered the V5 but had issue with Visa Payment they stopped accepting it at the time of process. It worked out so I ordered the V11 from a different TD. I have it on a different strap, I never liked the one it came with.
I've seen these p series instances with novodiac instead of incablock but never knew where they came from ...
Hmmm. it's the first time Im encountering this. Was thinking it's a Noob until I spotted the non-incabloc.
Anyone else has experience with this?

Where did you buy the strap? It looks awesome!
Amazon.com $20 I did change the buckle to a Panerai one that came with the watch.
