I have the noob v10 and it is excellent. I changed the clasp for an arf but apart from that its top draw. I have had no issues with the movement it runs 2sec over if worn. I not sure the concerns with movement reliability are justified anymore.

Agree! Can’t understand the ZZF hype. That dent around hands kill it all...

Build quality on Noobs is also way better.

Having owned Noob v9 LN and LV, ARF v2 and ZZF v1 LN and v2 LN and LV, I agree that the ZZF is the best OOTB. It goes beyond pics. There is a perhaps subjective feel in the hand that sets the ZZF apart.

I have build over 20 watches with ZZF V2 as base.

And yes it is a nice watch to wear it stock OOTB. But man... look at the dial in daylight. The distortion around hands. It’s just horrible!

With all that experience with the ZZF, can you say how many have acceptable rehaut, and how many have either improper letter spacing or are so far off center that the movement can't be rotated to line up?

Hi! I'm just curious as I have not seen this myself (doesn't even understand what you mean). What's distortion around the hands?

Baby oil or WD40 would be better ? Thanks for your replies guys

There seems to be a common misconception that WD40 is a lubricant. That stuff was developed to dissolve stuck/dried lubricants or rust/dirt from gaps/screws and so on. Use it to clean something first i.e. remove residuals of the old/dry lubricant. After that, use a "proper oil" (TM) depending on the intended use.

ARF still have better hands. But Lume wise, ZZF is better.
ARF have better Bracelet as comapred to ZZF V2 ( I have both, ARF, ZZF V1 and ZZF V2). ARF feel more solid and smooth
Bezel clicking is much more smoother in ARF
ARF have clearer Xtal (But doesnt matter, rep crystal sucks)

On the other end,
ZZF have better datewheel even though ARF improved theirs.
ZZF have better movement
ZZF have better insert, dial and bezel
ZZF Have better case

Finishing wise, ZZF is actually better than ARF. If i have time, shall do the VS thread. Don't have a noob though.

Is it worth buying an ARF bracelet for the ZZF V2S I just bought it is it not worth the money

No zzf v2 and v2s looks to have a really nice bracelet, maybe the clasp in the V2 is not perfect but should have been upgraded in this new (gorgeous) smoke version

That’s a pretty cool rep. Looks really good compared to the gen.
