They are not assembled in the cleanest of places. I am just asking the chap who spoke with such authority that the latest noob daytonas are unreliable.

Alpha_and_omega 3 Posted April 9, 2020 This might have just swayed me into doing the responsible “uncertain economic times” thing and going with the ARF V2 instead of Noob V3. Absolute beaut, well done on the pictures! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharkman07 50 Posted April 25, 2020 I think the ARF dial is slightly superior to the Noob and as these photos show is basically gen looking. I've never once had cause to start a chrono then stand round for a minute with an audience waiting to see if the subdial counter moves. Save the money and get one of these.
