Like I said in my earlier post I'm no expert, I'm just giving my opinion, I can tell you this, the insert is better than the noob insert by a long way, and the bezel is much better too. My pics are terrible , but it's worth the money, I'm a happy customer and get compliments on it all the time from guys who wear gens , audemars/omegas/Rolex etc

If anyone knows what to watch out for when removing the VRF bezel please let me know. I asume you can use the butter knife method. I know only the insert will fit in the VRF bezel at least until someone might figure out a workaround to mount the bezel on a VRF.

Hey folks... I’ve been collecting inserts and have a new one of these to compare to the ceramaster and noob and arf ... here are some pics.

The pearl on the CleanF is the highlight here... it’s really something. Jtime was great to buy from. Nice and easy communication. Very responsive ... white glove service for sure.

These are iPhone pics... I’ll share more when I get my SLR out and have some sunny weather to take shots in.

I think you might be the one could guide us how to do it on VRF after you proceed your own experiment.
Just be careful with it , and do not make scratches on sel like m88sby did.
Keep us updated.

Received mine from jtimewatch and communication til delivery was excellent.

Its in 3 parts (just like the gen assembly) inside a plastic case.
The finish is amazing, it looks like a new gen insert. Old ones tend to darken..

I ordered mine on PT. I hope I didn't get ripped off ordering that way around.

Yes it does not sit flush on the case. I have the crystal lowered though, not sure if that's the reason.


It seemed to me that I had read in other posts that it integrated perfectly with the Noob...

hi guys, others who have already installed the CF on Noob could let them know about their experiences? Does the CF integrate smoothly into the Noob case or does it need modification?
