Mary, so now v9 exists? these are the words you wrote to me in e-mail: Mary say: "3135 version call V9, 2836 version call V8, V8 have two kinds: 904ss and 316ss. V8 is same with V9, just TD call it different version. " You made me take the V8, you say you have sent on Tuesday, but when I ask you the tracking answer me on the mail after days without sending me the tracking.

(deeper engraving and different paint color) v9 is v8 but 904 steel these are the most noticeable "updates".. v8 and v9 may have a better green on the hulk model, as far as I'm aware, but I haven't seen any pic of v8/v9 hulk yet so I can t say anything about that. OP how much did you pay exc shipping? Totally wrong bro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dom1986 0 Posted June 15, 2018 check the bezel, between 30 and 35, there is a black dot. This doesn’t look at all like a v9.Ryan (intime) and chazing are the only TD’s who have legit stock v9. I know because I purchased one and got QCs confirmed over on RWI. Other td’s are passing v8 904’s as v9’s. Its a messSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If by noob you mean over 4 years experience on RWI buying, selling and researching reps then yes. You got it. You couldn’t be further from the truth to be honest.The sels on the v9 are not gen like at all, on all of them. Not one i have seen has got a recessed SEL. The insert isnt even right. I have a v9 hulk and an arf hulk in hand about to hybrid and franken. You probably already did this with your incomparable expertise and eye for a v9....Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're one of the few on both forums to have had both in hand I'd imagine. What do you reckon then? Which is the best OTB and why? Best for frankening? Best bits of each? Please share!

Best for frankening? Best bits of each? Please share!Haha, i am by no means an expert but have put a lot of time in researching the whole v9/ARF debate. For me the ARF OTB is the hands down winner. Sels, insert, hands, on the face look more gen than the v9. I have only had the v9 alongside my buddies gen and the insert although good is an easy tell as the numbers seem white. The ARF platinum looks awesome and the engraving although deeper is a lot closer on my eye to Gen. It also looks peachy as gen and those sels and hands which are almost perfect. The ARF. However one big down on the ARF Is the case and dial. The case is way off and the dial is cheap looking compared to the v9. The v9 case (all be it bigger than gen and the ARF) dial, and band seem very good to me. As are the bezel teeth and machining it is almost nailed to gen. the laser on the clasp on the noob isnt correct its a different shade and the sels aren’t in anyway recessed no matter how much i wish they was. The band feels nicer though than the ARF. My thinking is this - noob case, noob dial, noob bezel, ARF band (praying it fixes sels on noob case), gen xtal, gen dw, ARF hands. Done for less than £1400. Ill hybrid the other ARF case with whats left and sell for a cut rate to try and get some £ back as its wiped me out. Anyone has any other ideas they wanna hit me with please give me a shout!

GingerApple 7,288 Posted June 27, 2018 Excellent little summary, thanks for taking the time mate! Can't wait to get my ARF in hand - I have dreadful standards and even worse eyes so I'm sure it will keep me happy. Good luck with the project, pics when it's finished please!!!
