  1. I think h factory N dial; rest noob; but I am no expert... This is under the philosophy that it is hard for the factories to do the pig
  2. What's a BP version? Is that a maker?...love to hear the experts opinions
  3. And what was on your wrist when you noticed the yacht club? Gen or rep? Did you ask to take a closer look, or not as you didn't want to cause attention to what you were wearing? I often have that problem and was wondering if others have that "issue"
  4. I wear my diver on bracelet under dress shirts all the time
  5. cant tell from my picture. I will have to look at home, but tfrom the gen picture above, and my picture above, they don't look too far off...I guess its all in the white balance setting of the cameras.
  6. Agreed it still looks too low. Maybe I use my h dial with new noob case set or live with the SLC
  7. thanks for the Toro link, That helped. just wondering if i want the torpedo love on my dial. So you don't even think the new and improved dial for Noob has Panerai in the correct spot? did you order the extra lugs and Watch from PT as well or from Toro? Thanks!
  8. really??? no one has the knowledge or is willing to share? here is the picture of my case that is cracked
  9. ok, used the search function and got caught up sort of..: Overall the differences i have gathered from the fora: Noob 1) Has Ceramic Crown like GEN (really nice feature///or liability...i guess it can crack easily) 2) Apparently has better case color? Have not seen side by side between H vs, N vs Gen on ceramic color. maybe i missed it 3) Claim that lugs are replaceable with OEMs and will not scrape color when entering case? Are these two claims true? I had an earlier 292K from H and lugs definitely started scraping off the thin PVD on lugs 4) Pig Dial is apparently not as crisp as gen or H factory...confirmed atleast with one picture set...don't know if it is representative 5) updated dial without pig has Panerai in correct placement now...this seems true now H 1) has best pig 2) 292K that i had lugs with thin PVD and black color was getting removed (had to use thick black sharpie) 3) my 292K case cracked right at the lug area...This is why I am seeking a new 292...please help... I can load a picture of my cracked case for your persual if requsted. 4) Cheaper Anyone can confirm or have pictures Noobs claim on point 2 and 3? Thanks for your help!
  10. i have both, the gen rubber has tubes that are considerably thicker: maybe twice the wall thickness. from top and bottom though, it is very difficult or perhaps indistinguishable...caveat is that I haven't picked up a rep rubber in a year, but the three i have a very thin walled tube installed
  11. hi- puretime's 15400 looks interesting. Surprisingly it is more expensive than the diver as it seems like its a simpler watch. Any comparisons with Gen? This might be a nice alternative to those who don't want such a large watch like the diver.
  12. Closed case back for more of a "rugged diver" look
