I would say go with a clean or BTF instead. I like noob dial color But thats the only think thats better on a NOOB(for me) case, braclet, bezel. Hands. Dial text. Etc is mucth better on clean/btf

Hi guys What do you think about this modded https://forum.replica-watch.info/threads/daytona-116500-noob-v4-bezel-cf.10959661/ ? My intent is to buy an Clean v3 but i notice the cream colour of the dial and the terrible crown hole .
I agree with @Tompa .
Both CF or BTF have their ups and their downs. You just have to see what you can accept and what really bugs you in each of them.

That being said, if your eyes like that NOOB then go for it! You're the one that has to be happy with it. And i dont thinks its fair for us to be commenting on a fellow RWI member with an active sale.

And about your remark about the crown hole. I believe its a batch thing. (I'm getting a CF with deep xtal to solve the "cream colour" of dial)
Theres this guy that got one CF V3 seven months ago with a crown hole bigger than my arse after beef vindaloo.

And then theres another guy that got one 5 months ago with a perfect crown.

OR
Buy BTF V3 if you can find one TD selling it. (I couldnt).

There's a youtube of Gen vs Clean v3 vs BTF, and clean is basically perfect now, I have a v3 and I wouldn't get a deep crystal installed, it's not as gen like IMO.
