CoffeeandCard 0 Posted January 30, 2018 I've got the Noob V7 and absolutely adore it - have tried on a friends gen (yep I've seen the box and papers and know he was on the list for years for it) and the difference is so minimal it's insane. Share this post Link to post

DavidAMcC 1 Posted January 30, 2018 That is a beast of a watch. Based on the photos you have here, the finishing looks to be to a very high standard. And it's 904 too. Stop the bus already! I still hanker after the BP 50 Fathoms, but this is a game changer. Share this post Link to post
Mr_B 2,401 Posted January 30, 2018 I don't see a massive difference to my noob v6 Share this post Link to post
GingerApple 7,300 Posted January 30, 2018 That looks lovely too. Unfortunately I'm fairly new to reps and have never had a Noob so I'll have to leave comparisons to others. Share this post Link to post
GingerApple 7,300 Posted January 31, 2018 I'm really feeling the love for this ARF. I tried my hardest not to wear it today, so as not to make my other watches jealous, but it's such a great looker! Share this post Link to post

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. BMW 5 Series in the background? Have you had the bracelet off to see if its marked Stainless or Stanless Steel? Love to see a comparison between the ARF and the Noob version.

Love to see a comparison between the ARF and the Noob version. Sharp eyes; not just APs you're an expert on! I DID take the bracelet off to check, lol. Well, I was taking it off to do a baby oil bath anyway, but the Stanless thing was on my mind as I was doing it. I'm happy to confirm that it is more a case of 'stan less' than Stanless as they have indeed corrected that ever-so-slightly-glaring error. Share this post Link to post

Only cos I've got one myself, albeit with black leather and not beige Good to know that they have fixed that. Although most will never see it unless the bracelet if off, it would still upset my karma knowing it could be wrong. Share this post Link to post
dc2_bb6_cu2 0 Posted February 8, 2018 The blue does look brighter than the Noob, but isnt Noob also darker than Gen? I thought ARF stood in between Noob and Gen in brightness.. not sure tho Share this post Link to post

I thought ARF stood in between Noob and Gen in brightness.. not sure tho These are Gen watches according to the Instagrammer that posted the photo below and indeed, experienced experts on this site. That looks pretty damn similar to my ARF if you ask me.... The lighting in the two photos is obviously radically different, but in terms of where the gradient towards darkness really kicks in, it looks in a similar place to me. Share this post Link to post
