Well i will give it a try ! So you said i need a special paint for steel ? How long it takes for this kind of paint to dry ? -
Hum, except this paint issue, i have never seen a rep like that...there is a high building and finishing quality and the gen feeling is great too ! Might be hard to go back to the standard Noob factory watches after that
-
Many thanks for this great explanation bro but i am sure i will do some bad things if i try this, so i will let the future buyer play as the watch will be for sale soon

So you got it already. ..great my friend ! -
Well, the bezel engraving is not deep enough and it might be hard to paint it and to remove the excess of paint ; i think i am not able to fix that....But i am sure that someone will have the skill and the time to do this job. So i just ordered another ARF Daytona from Toro and he was kind enough to give me a discount on this one. Regarding this current watch, as i am not able to let her go now until i have the next one, i keep her and i will put her for sale in 3 weeks for a good price with this bezel paint issue.....

Well, Toro didn't see that during the control but we will say that "errare humanum est" Conclusion....Double check that bezel paint on you QC pics when you order this awesome watch; believe me it's a true beauty !!!
-
The 6 is fine here
-
Look at that bezel numbers my friends, it looks like the black paint has gone or is 20 years old. ..damn how Toro makes the control when he gets the watch in his hands ! I wasn't able to see that on his pictures Of course i contacted Toro today and he asked me to send back the watch lol !!! What a disappointment... Here is the brand new watch. Hard to see the problem on this picture

Seiko 5 helmet reissue...Nothing better for that price ! Édit : I just made a circular brushing on the bezel...looks fine now
-
Congratulations, this is really a nice piece ! How much for that ?

That's it ! Just put a small amount of grease in the middle, the bearing must be dry as they are old eta rotor...even WD40 is fine ! Don't forget the screw to install it, like this http://www.ebay.fr/itm/ETA-2824-2826-2834-2836-screw-rotor-vis-masse-Schraube-fur-Schwungmasse-/252666308583?hash=item3ad415e7e7:g:x6IAAOSwHMJYG2Tm -

Well, i guess this is a deco plate in the middle and the real screw is just hidden...So just remove this small plate with the both small fake screws, unscrew the real one, then try to find a simple eta 2824 2836 rotor ! Maybe i am wrong, but if it is right, the deco plate is just glued ! -
Waouh, very impressive with these pics
-
Nice ! White bear is bigger than a kodiak ?

The triangle at twelve is very nice and the numbers on the insert are deep and clear... The bezel teeth are good, the winding crown is perfect, the space between 12600ft and 3000m is perfect, the date is centered, and the sel is perfect...ETC ! This might be a gen deepsea
-
Yes it doesn't have a full chrono, but this is a fine piece and the first daytona i would buy if i could ! Anyway, i will always go with Noob if i have to choose even with JF...BP is not in the race for me ! Noob wins because i have never been dissapointed by this maker with the finishing, the build quality and the movements....JF is great also but Noob is a great value to me.
-
This one looks to be the best at the moment, but i am not sure if it is a full chrono working https://puretime03.com/daytona-116520-arf-1-1-best-edition-904l-ss-case-and-bracelet-black-dial-a4130-super-clone.html

I noticed that intime has a Noob v7 sd4000 https://www.intime01.co/rollie/4037-sea-dweller-116600-black-ceramic-1-1-noob-best-edition-sa3135-v7.html

I would love to ! It's the Noob called v8 by Toro with swiss sellita
-

-
This is Nice indeed...but is it still called the v2 ?
-
On the road To the "côte d'azur" Hello guys !
-
No, i don't think ! And Toro calls it the v8 but it's a v7 with upgrades.
