Panda Daytona 116500 GEN VS NOOB, Clean V2, BT V2, Full comparison

[NoShenanigans19]

Is there really a CF Daytona Panda 116500 V3 available? I’ve seen Clean push out updated versions of different models of the Daytona over the last few months. I’ve even recently saw on the JTime forum someone said they purchased a Clean V3 Daytona Panda. I just don’t see that many posts about it. I didn’t check all TDs but I checked JTime (since the post I saw was about them and a forum member purchase a v3 Panda from them) but I didn’t see JTime post about it or the price change on their site. Even the video that cyprusdaedalus posted was removed soon after their post.

Is this all just wishful thinking that there is a v3 out there or is this version update just low key for now?

The V3 update is only for 116500 black dial. They essentially updated just the dial.

Curious if anyone would know which factory this could be from?

Very poor research from my side. Was already posted on several places here. Watch is a Noob.

Sorry about that.

It is from NOOB factory, two years earlier products.

Here is a new BTF (in stickers) vs a CF V2 (going based on crown being fixed)

The crystal difference is huge, but personally I like the CF dial better.

Clean's dial details are indeed better, but as for how to choose, it's mainly pleasing to see which aspect you care more about, after all, it's hard to have an all-around winner when the representatives are competing with each other!

Hi’
I have a noob v4 116500. Daytona.
And I just have one question: How do I fixe the crystal problem? It is just too high. Can it be pushed down or will a gen Crystal installed in my watch get the job “to high problem” done?

Thanks. So i don’t need a gen crystal? Is the gasket alone you mentioned enough with the crystal on my noob, so the hight will be fixed?

yes

Or is a gen crystal combined with the gasket you mentioned, the right combination? And again thanks a lot for the help, much appreciated.

 

[Donnaildk]

yes

Thanks a lot man. You just saved my day.

Is there an CF vs BTF V3 comparison for the 116519 (Gray Daytona)? I'm sure I saw one somewhere but I can't find it anywhere!

There is no comparison yet, what you see should be clean and GEN's factory homemade comparison chart!

Looking to replace my CF V1 with a V3. Did the V3 dial get colder in it's white color again (like the V1)? V2 it got warmer but i've seen a few people comment the V3's got a colder blue hue to them?

Anyone know?

 

[zeroth380]

What do you guys think about this one? Latest CF version

 

[wolfwood]

Did they put a new glass on it? It seems so clear now. Just like the BTF ones. If that's the case, then I might get the CF instead.

V2 to V3, no change in dial colour! After the 116500 black was upgraded to V3, the white one is now called V3 too, without the factory actually making any significant changes!
