DD60 74 Posted December 28, 2017 Anyone know process ARF is using on the insert ? As it certainly appears much brighter than noob inserts. At least in these pics. Or is this one of those lighting issues? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raddave 18 Posted December 28, 2017 The pearls on these seem to be alot lower profile than on the sub Cs and DSSDs .... do they have a glass cover over the pearl lume ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drifterr 0 Posted December 28, 2017 as is on the gen 50 ann SD ...does it seem to have the glass cover over the pearl ? Doesn't look like it. But I'll double check for you mate.

drifterr 0 Posted December 28, 2017 I am simply comparing it with noob insert . ARF insert is more lively and brighter / sharper / crisp..where as noob appears to be dull. This is indoors.Will check out in natural light tomorrow.Below my noob dssd in natural light. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

desmond20052000 0 Posted December 28, 2017 Ordered mine today, what should I look out for? This would be my first Rolex rep and I did heard something about updated datewheel, how do I tell the difference? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Some more shots... Lol Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Brilliant looking rep! Updated DW for sure and even the bezel teeth/scallops look a bit less pointy on some of your shots. As I told you on the geek, wear it in good health and let me know if you ever want to get rid of it. Saludos, Chroniker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it looks like drifters you are good to go. If the number 8 on the 28 looks fat, you’ve got the old DW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pilch23 22 Posted January 2, 2018 Ordered. Hopefully they will bring out a GMT Master ll very soon. Do the ARF bracelets need baby oil bath before wearing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
