wooky492 Posted May 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Guys, does anyone know the best way to add extra holes to the rubber strap? I will order a genuine small one, but for now I need a quick fix. Powerdrill perhaps?? ;-) Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inertiadrifter Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 The difference between noov V3 and V3.5 is the near colorless AR'ed cyclops. V2 is totally different factory and needs to be modded to be good but not as good as the V3 and V3.5 Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apcollector Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 wooky, I used a flat head screw driver and heated it over the hob. I then pushed it hard into the rubber and it worked. It did not leave a clean hole though, but is good enough for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it did not melt too much rubber on the exterior though ;-) Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apcollector Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 None of the rubber melted. The straps must be heat/flame resistant to a high temp or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, how's the lume on your diver. Mine seems to fade a bit within a very short period of time. Even when I've recharged it under a direct sunlight it is not that great. I definitely need a new super-lume job!! Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrima Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 How's the AR on your diver? Looks a bit blueish or is it due to the fact that you have blue sky and sun (which is not very common very I'm from;) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2 The lume isn't good on mine either and it does fade quite quickly, as compared to my other reps. Nearly all the v3.5's i've seen have sloppy lume jobs.

Looks a bit blueish or is it due to the fact that you have blue sky and sun (which is not very common very I'm from;) ) The lume is green and you are right, it's the reflection of blue sky ;-) But like I mentioned the lume is slopy. Definitely requires extra lume job. Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wooky492 Posted May 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Sorry for the bad iPhone pic but this is the gen: Wow not bad! The v3.5 lume is probably about half compared to your gen pic.

indywatchguy Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Swiss and Asian have the same beat rate and sweeping second hand. Swiss can be more reliable but ultimately its personal preference. I always go for the Swiss option if offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
