some days ago i placed an order with andrew(trustytime) and i had "funny" episode:

first i got this message

<<Dear Sir/Mdm

Thank you for your purchase! We have received your order and will process your order for you.

You will receive a tracking update within 3-7 working days. We will get the watch you ordered and do a full testing for about 6-24 hours before we pack and ship it out. >>

after 23minutes i got a new message:

<<EMS sent in package:

EA*********CN

Thanks>>

maybe we got a better service from some dealers, than from others...but in fact most of them are just "white" lies

Because its the same watch...

so why i read everywhere that the ttk/narika noob and beginmariner are not the same thing?

Wow, good luck!

I've been after all of them almost and at the end of the day I prefer the SeaDweller now

Go figure

i have just been in the collector's area...but i couldn't find the legendary noob in the list...

anyway i decided to don't buy from him...i like to pay only through credit card(fast and easy),which it is not mentioned...

other payment systems are a pain in the ass(at least for me)...

Hmmm, it's HIM not her

In the collector section, but I'm not too sure if you have access to that section.

Maybe you should become supporter to access it.

In the meantime, here is what I wrote when I got mine from TTK (exact same one as Narika's one):

Rolex Submariner 16610: The NoobMariner

thanx for the info

btw i already have the josh's begin mariner and i'm very happy with that...I also read your amazing review 2 weeks ago, but honestly speaking,when I try to compare the one I purchased with the ttk's pics i really cannot see any difference...

that's why i would like to buy one from narika.it only remains me to compare them "on live"

Amazing how the reflex isn't yet the NoobMariner from TTK or Narika.

Well TTK isn't here anymore

Guys, come on, for 100$ you can get one of the best out the box sub available from Narika, THE NoobMariner.

Just my 2 subs

how can I contact her?

in short u pay more to get a worse rep...how funny

what's the difference between them???

both look same,both have a crappy asian movement...

seems there are only small differences here and there...do you think they worth the extra $20???

thanks a lot guys

anyone?

i'm interested as well

The asian ETA 2813 is really a misnomer. This movement is referred to as a DG2813 in the ofrei and julesborel catalogs. It's an asian 21j and is closer to the Miyota than an ETA. I think it was Josh who referred to it as an eta copy movement, but it just ain't so! Look for the WO symbol under the balance wheel- that means it comes from PTS Resources in China. I personally like the movement, but it's like any other rep movement (ETA included), it could be dirty and need to be serviced.

But once it's been serviced it's fine. And if it's running well, then you may not have to service it for a few years. Ironically, it's also cheaper to replace it than service it- the Chinese Conundrum!

hi

that means that a21j and DG2813 are the same thing?

I't's the same noob factory one, good bracelet, dial and case, poor clasp and crown.

An ETA 2836-2 will fit with a different spacer ring and eta hands.

Noob case SN is 520117

hi guys, i'm new

btw if it comes from the same factory why does it cost -$20???
