Black 116500 Noob with a New Clean Factory Bezel...

Nice pictures, thanks for posting them.

Yes it's clean, i can confirm that the deep engraving is not noticeable also the colour of the CF factory is brighter then noob and richer.

I’m most likely buying a donor Arf. Going to get my noob bezel and dial swapped. Anything else I need to swap? Bracelet without SELs or just the clasp maybe?

Best ever seen man
Congrats
Ultimate modding
Cf insert
Arf dial
Arf clasp
Noob case and movement

Price
688 noob
500 donor arf
160 cf
+ watchsmith

You get a NWBIG watch for about 1500 dollars.

Uncalloutable

Just the clasp? Or the entire bracelet without the SELs? Since I hear SELs don’t swap properly between. The noob and ARF

I wish there was a comparison between the ARF and CF ceramic insert. I’ve got the noob V2.2 and would ideally want a CF ceramic insert and the ARF dial. Unfortunately you can’t get the ARF dial as a spare part and have to buy the whole watch. Buying the whole watch just for the dial doesn’t make sense. If I’m buying the entire ARF watch than might aswell skip the CF bezel and just go for the ARF bezel, since I would already spent $500 on the ARF watch. But exactly how much difference is there between the ARF and CF? Anyone?

Just two pages ago in this thread... from a member with extensive hands on experience.

I used to be a huge fan of the ARF. Having now seen both, and many versions of the gen, the clean is miles better. The depth is deceptive, the photos Li put up don't really do it justice.

ARF font is of course much better than noob and was worth getting at the time but the numbers are too dull. Going to use my arf one and get it rose gold paint modded and stick it on my 116515
