Noob V8 116610LN good or bad?

No, is not the light, is totally off. See gen pictures, your bezel numbers are very dark. Anyway you can make a mod to turn the numbers to silver.

I have a v7 Deep Blue sea that had quite dark number and i make a mood to make its silver.

Here a picture (the bezel is broken in the 50 when i was removing it to change Crystal)

This is a ARF that bezel color numbers are great.

In my opinion noob beats ARF in overall copy tho. Lugs on ARF are a bit thin. Cyclops off too. Your right noob has its flaws but ARF is better with other reps not rolex in my opinion. I could just replace the insert with a gen. $400 on ebay.

Well luckily thats only your opinion, lugs are thin? The ARF that i show you is a SD 43 not a Submariner, lugs are correct.... If you compare the Noob SD 43 vs ARF SD 43, is better the ARF.

A gen ceramic insert for 400$ (350€)? I never see this, it is imposible, let me know if you see one to buy 3

Noob Cyclop also has blue tint so is off to, better than ARF, yes could be, but also different from GEN.

You answer if your submariner is ok, i tell you the truth, you dont like it, ok, but is the truth.

I am aware it is a SD 43mm. Still i stand by my opnions. Gen crystals have an AR (what u called blue) coating on the 2.5x cyclops. Im not saying this is perfect. I only got it to compare not pass it off as a gen. I have a few authentic rolexes for that. The reason i said I could get a gen bezel insert for $400 is i have connections (I am a watchmakers apprentice) and i know some ebay sellers who could get me one. I respect your opinion and wish u the best, therfore i did ask for opinions. Thanks and have a great day
