No one knows yet. Angus won't give any timeframe in his thread at RG. I think he doesn't know either. Speculating I would say the noob 8500 models are months out.

Thanks!

Does anyone know when the Noob Models are coming out?  I was gonna get one of the new ones with the rubber strap, but I am conserned about the fading issues this model has. 

I have been out for a while and have an old UPO where the crown screw has striped and no longer screws in.  I was wondering if our valued rep dealers have fixed that problem?  If someone could let me know I would appreciate it.

Thanks!

Thanks to all. I appreciate the responses and feel better about the purchase.

This may be a dumb question but I just received the Noob 111 M and when the Crown guard lever is closed the crown will still move and wind the movement. Is this the way the rep is supposed to be? Does the 111 Gen crown aslo do the same?

Thanks.

Thanks, I've been out of Reps for a short while and now getting back. I saw where he did a great PAM 063 and I am looking to get an updated one. I saw DSN's but see it might have a few flaws. Thanks to all anyway.

Does anyone know what his web site is or how i can get in touch with him?

Thanks.

I'm thinking of putting this up for sale. Although I consider it to be my holy grail rep, it has been sitting in the box for months instead of being on my wrist.... What do you guys think?

What would you want for it?

Probably better off posting this in the Wanted section, and keeping an eye on the parts sales area. What you will need is the Ultimate hour hand, all the rest of the DSN hands are pretty much the same as the other Ultimate versions. No dealer sells the hand separately so you'll have to hope a member sells a set ....

Thanks!

I would like to buy some updated PAM 088 GMT Hands to put on a Davidsen 088. Does anyone know where I could buy them?

Thanks.

Hey Watcher, great to hear, I emailed BK and I think I will probably order. Let us know how it looks.

Hey Watcher, any update on this? I am looking to get one.

Thanks.

Tooooooooooooooooooooooo Much!

I bought this watch when it first came out because of all the great reviews. However I never wear it. Its huge, very heavy on the wrist and I just have too many others that I prefer to wear. So....it just sits.

I will be happy to trade for somthing, i have a few i could trade off. Please PM me if you are interested.

I am on the brink of making my next DSN purchase. Can anyone share a good picture of the date font. I have seen a lot of gens and am concerned about the size, and the crispness of the dates. Thanks in advance. BTW I have done a search, and still need more.

I just recieved the 088 from him and compared it to a friends gen and its very good. The font on the date is the correct size but is al little dull compared to the gen, its not quite as bright. The mag is the correct size. The hands are still a little thin but not very noticable. Hope this helps, dont really know how to use the camera yet, wife needs to teach me, sorry.

Was wondering if anyone has this watch and if there were any issues? I am thinking of getting this as it seems that we cannot get UPO's with the 2824-2 movement in them right now. Issues would be chrono stops working, or not resetting, crooked logo, etc...

Thanks for any help.

Maybe it lacks a small pin+spring ensemble that should stay below the bezel, in a small hole of the case.

You should try removing the bezel and check. Be cautious: if the pin and spring are there, the spring uses to throw the pin into 4th dimension as soon as you remove the bezel.

To remove the bezel, a watchsmith knife is the best tool in my experience*. Place its edge between the bezel and case, and make lever action. At least, this works on Omega bezels.

*Too thin blades will chip.

THANKS!

I have a PAM 243 Submersible and the bezel slides as it rotates, does not click, was wondering if anyone knows how to remove and fix.

Thanks, Sub1.

Mine sits flush and seems firm. It does'nt feel like there is a rubber gasket around the screw though.

I have had a 45mm UPO from Josh for about a month and dont have the problem yet, but now I am more interested in a 42.5 mm and like the one I saw on Ruby's site. This is why I originally started this post, to see if anyone has had experience with her Planet Ocean's. Does anyone know if the 42.5mm's have the same issues of the crown stripping. Thanks.

I have mine since July. Its the 45.5mm version. Quality is very good. Cant speak about the 42.5mm though.

Hope this helps some.............................

Thanks!

Has anyone seen the "new" Planet Ocean's on Ruby's site. Just wondering if these are UPO's, they look pretty good. I am more interested in the 42.5 mm but wondering if anyone has any experience with these.

Thanks.

Average for here.

Well I'm by myself while my wife and kids are still up north visiting family, so dont feel bad everyone. I am going to celebrate by drinking as many Dirty Martini's as I can before Midnight.

Cheers!
