That's what looks like was done to his case. This way it mimics the earlier 116520 cases that had softer lugs. The newer 116520 lugs are identical to what you see in 116500.Amazing Specs!! The SEL also looks perfect!!
Great looking watch.
I keep reading reshaped Noob case. Does anyone have any before after pic of the Reshaping. Which area is being reshaped. Just curious.
Too me it just looks like the edged of the lugs have been softend.
Like you said the edges need softening but also the sides of the case on the Noob are too flat looking from the top down there it needs more of a curve from the middle of the case out to the end of the lugs. There is also more of a curve to the bottom of a gen case but to get it perfect you'd need to add material to the Noob case. The Noob SEL are way off. I used a small hammer with a rubber head to tighten any side to side play between the Gen SEL and the Noob case. This thing took me probably a solid 40 hours of shaping and polishing.
Not usually attracted to Two Tone watches. But this looks pretty impressive.
What are the specs? Gen case also?

Hi Spatiumtemporis,
May I ask where you have the mid case modified, and what work has been done on it? I've tried to contact modders in this forum about this, but without success. Would appreciate if there' s any information of modders who will reshape the noob daytona mid case.
