Going to the 50s..!

An oldie but goodie:

Their new site is http://www.homage-forum.com/ I’m pretty sure they started again because their Admin went long term AWOL, causing them no end of problems

I believe he is more readily accessed on the homageforum... B

This was Sub 16610 WM1. The first Sub that really, really was the SHIT. In the second picture it's next to my gen GMT again and you see why this was a remarkable rep. It mimicked the genuine looking crystal / rehaut look very well. I loved the V1.

This is where we start with questions like these... this site gives movement diameters, heights, stem heights and pinion sizes... all the details you'll need to see if a 2893 can fit a 2824 hole. http://www.ranfft.de/cgi-bin/bidfun-db.cgi?10&ranfft&&2uswk&ETA_2846

Reliability on the new noob is fine, lots in the wild now and no horror stories. Dial on the steel version is a joke, completely wrong. Bezel isn't great either. Dial on the ceramic is better in terms of the ROLEX spacing but the Subdials are too fat. Once seen you cannot unsee. Bezel is poor compared to the ARF as well. For a Franken project it isn't going to be cheap. The fact noob have a functioning thin watch is pushing the price of gen daytona parts up, certainly on the steel model, on the ceramic forget it, gen parts are impossible to find. A good alternative is buy the noob and if you can get hold of an ARF bezel insert and dial do that. Even the BP dial is miles better. Problem is both BP and ARF dials are a fraction too thick so will need to be shaved in order to fit the noob case. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
