Recommended Posts

It's the third noob sub I bought, and the most significant improvement is the bezel, the sound and the feel of the 120 clicks bezel is totally different with the previous version which released last summer, and very close to the gen 116610LN, the font of the bezel also been improved.  
the lume is same as the V3, not as bright as the explorer II, but better than noob's early edition.
 
unfortunately the bracelet is not as good as the previous version, contain a small gap on the ear and a larger gap on the buckle,repalced it with the V3 bracelet, which works far more better.
 
took some photos of the latest version noob sub, together with the early version 116610LN

the uniqflawue is not perfect insert' color .. bit darker than gen...

I think the color is OK, 

here is a pic of a gen and a V3 sub (the previous edition) 

the one in the left is the gen, the right one is the noob V3 sub released in last summer

and the latest edition v3.1 come with the exactly same color as the V3

Thanks for the photo, you are right I just compared the V3 with a gen yesterday and the color of the V3 insert do running a bit darker

 

 

But the color of the V3.1 insert is a bit light which is more accurate

 

Here is a pic of my V3.1 (left) and the V3, you can view the difference of the insert color

Congrats on this one. Any side comparison pics? Is the caseset  the same?

Yes I took some pics yesterday, the V3 ( released last summer) & V3.1 (released this Feb) do contain some differences, not only the insert font and the insert color

 

The crown guards of the 2 watches are in different shape,  above one is the V3.1

and the V3.1's printing of the words "CHRONOMETER" "CERTIFIED"  are not as clear as the V3,   especially on the letters "CHRO" and "CER" , I prepare to replace the V3 face on the V3.1

 

the above one is the V3.1

your new sub is the v3 your old sub in the pic is the v2,one again thanks for the paint info

 

as i know the new sub is the 4th edition of the ceramic sub produced by noob factory, the first run (V1) released on 2012 and the 2nd run released on Jan 2013, and i bought a 116610LN at that time,  the 3rd run released on  last summer which is the one in my above pics, so the one just release on 2014 Feb is the 4th run. some dealers call it V3 and some others call it V4, or V3.1

anyway I think the current version sub with the 2013 summer version's dial and bracelet will be the best mod
