----- Son & father wristshot today!

The way to secure the pin is to crimp the loops once the pin is in place, this has always worked and how they were designed

Ouch now that hurt no McNair is not me, a scammer/repair guy got outed/went bad 2012 check RWG bz for threads, Md2020 is our version of him but different guy . I am the guy hunting them for wrong doing, OK all straight now.

What about the guy with one eye from monsters inc?

SuperOcean Steelfish would be best for a small wrist. If you want a chrono, then BCE. I have a 6.75" wrist for reference.

There are many details that separate these 111s from the makers mentioned.... The mods suggested really ain't worth the money but to each there own..... But when you get to basics the noob is built very similarly to the gen as in the case and bezel etc the H is made with a different technique which can prevent some parts being OEM replaced without machining.... Then there has been several reports of over polishing, pitting and general urn robustness of the h makers case.... But neither use the same quality steel as OEM ... Variations occur in CG especially lever shape, and foot plus other small variations like font, sheen of berlac, finish if hands, crystal, lug shape, pillows and edges, plus depth of base plate to top plate etc etc But otb and overall I prefer the noob currently.... But if I wanted the best one it would probably involve me building one from parts of different versions and makers ....

The whole thing smells fishy to me.

Thats a great review, thanks for sharing. Some highlights for me. ?....... The detailed pics of the dial fonts clearly illustrate the many differences in font styles and spacing even across the same gen series! Look at the different M fonts in the three Swiss Made pics alone? The same can be seen in several other characters in the main dial text. I am really not clear why the kh dial is thought to be the best TC dial, as it has as many differences, as the earlier TC dial and to the naked eye on the wrist none can really be seen? Some early TC dial batches had QC issues, but a properly QC'd dial is also superb. I completed a detailed review of my gen PJ coded 2008 bracelet, against my TC V3/V4 PJ bracelet and it really is very very close in detail, form, feel and finish. Many gen bracelets do not have the 93250 stamped on the back in later series so this is not an issue. Personally I think your crown guard analysis is superb, but what it does also show is why a gen crown upgrade is worthwhile? You can see in the bottom picture it really does make a difference and it eliminates the slipping clutch issue with many TC crown springs. Thanks again for a brilliant insight and all of the above is meant to add some value to your great analysis. I vowed for years that I would never wear a rep modern Rolex sub, but my BK TC franken changed all of that! ENJOY YOURS :-)
