GingerApple 7,299 Posted January 29, 2018 New arrival as of five minutes ago! This poor ARF seems to be getting a bit of negative press, but I for one am a happy punter. I understand that those in the know have issues with the dial being too blue and the case being the wrong shape (and a few other bits and pieces), but perhaps that's why ignorance really is bliss. I've never had a noob one of these, I've never seen a gen in the flesh so to me, in my mind's eye, this looks like the real deal and equally importantly, with its 904L goodness, if feels like the real deal too. I love ARF bracelets! Share this post Link to post

In that case, I'm off down the pub that @pickledbeetroot drinks in; if even he can get some action when he wears a fake Rolex, I'm going to have the honeys flocking round me!

That is the BEST looking D-Blue ... and don't you let anyone say otherwise. Now, even though you do NOT have a pretty face, you can proudly show that you have a pretty watch on your wrist ... Kakaka!

Automotiveromance 1 Posted January 29, 2018 That bezel does look fantastic! And the dial looks really nice under normal lighting, not as excessively bright as in the overexposed dealer pics. Great looking watch, hope you enjoy it! Share this post Link to post
tickedoff 0 Posted January 29, 2018 I owned a gen DSSD a couple of years ago. I sold it because it was top heavy, (not comfortable on the wrist). I just bought the noob V7. Even if it doesn't get a lot of wrist time, I still want it in my collection. At the rep price....who cares. To me , I can't tell the difference between my old gen and the new rep. Don't overthink it, just enjoy it. Share this post Link to post

WatchDog21 3,345 Posted January 29, 2018 Very nice. I had one, sold it, now miss it and will most likely pick one up again. Thanks for sharing. Oh and yes, ignorance is bliss when it comes to those minor flaws. My motto, if it makes you happy that's all that matters! Share this post Link to post
MetalMickey 179 Posted January 29, 2018 Looks good. As for the "flaws", don't worry. A boss of mine a couple of years ago had a gen and I handed him my Narikaa-DSSD to compare. He could not tell the difference. So there you go. Share this post Link to post

I love ARF bracelets! Thats the money shot right there. Arguing back n forth on rwi. that insert is by far, best one done by any factory to date. You caught it right there and i couldn't in my whole write-up. it flashes over to that metallic whitish platinum same exact way gen does. almost exact color.... and those sel's .... so pretty Share this post Link to post

Haha.. just wear for a week you will get used to it. What's funny is switching to a daytona, it feels very strange initially but you get over that quick. Looks amazing mate, need more pics...

Although it's chunky, I don't actually find it to be uncomfortable or top heavy as others have said; it's a cracking fucking watch in my view! Go and buy it people! I've not been able to take any photos though, sorry, as I've actually had to do some work today! It has given my (admittedly thick) shirt cuff a bit of a battering though. Top watch.
