  1. just ask a dealer to sell you the noob bracelet only. just keep in mind andrew and josh don't sell noob stuff as much as i am aware off. But pretty much every other TD should be able to source it for you. enjoy your bp!
  2. toro told me the white one is sold out..may you tell me where u get the white version?
  3. sorry to hear but a rep will never be a gen so just keep that in mind. Nevertheless I can perfectly understand you since I am also a perfectionist. So easiest way to change bezel is to take out the movement and pop the crystal out. But without the right tools and skills its pretty difficult. So if you can do it ask andrew nicely for a replacement and I am sure he will send you one! He can source all the parts and he is a reliable and stamd up guy! But otherwise enjoy the nice watch and your dial looks spot on! Cheers
  4. I just swapped the bezel of mine some days ago. Same with your watch the pearl is about 1mm or half over the bezel which was not the case with the first batch. Easy fix though Ps. Really recommend the clear coat mod but use matt clear code instead of shiny.
  5. Nice watch! I am also waiting for the white noob to be produced again. The main difference is that the AR has no blue AR coating but at least the date is nicely aligned what is not always the case for the noob. Perhaps the noob bracelet is little bit better since it is really outstanding. But enjoy your bp it's definitely a nice watch!
  6. It definitely does and the quality is outstanding. Wearing it now steadily for a month and strap got extremely nice feel but no signs of abrasion. The asso strap is lying at home in a drawer and getting coated with dust... JK also the asso strap is of outstanding quality and already got a nice patina after some weeks of usage.
  7. Looks awesome, enjoy! Did they sort out the misaligned numbers on the dial? Definitely consider buying one of these, but since I already have the CrPo and not enough funds I guess I have to wait...
  8. Can't told so far I have it at home..Will wear it next week and can tell you more then
  9. I guess it fits but so hard to find and way to expensive. I just swapped it and this time I made the mod with matt clear coat to prevent it from fading..hope it lasts
  10. I just acquired this Omega Seamaster and want to ask whether someone knows the exact production year since I think 1963 is not correct. The watch is working flawlessly and has nice patina on the dial. The strap is not my cup of tea so can anyone recommend a seller who sells croco straps which would fit these lugs? Cheers
  11. Thanks guys I really appreciate your thoughts and you just gave me the right advice. Since I really like the sub it would more be that I won't lose money while I wear it but I will rather hunt for a 16610 with maxi dial and black insert. That is the watch I will really enjoy and never sell. But to start I will go with a tc since as a student I don't have the necessary funds somehow
  12. On a local auction platform there is a good offer of a slightly used rolex 116610ln for about 7200$. What I have found out regarding my research I have done this is a pretty good price. This is a lot of money for me that's why I would appreciate some expert advice. Is this a good price and will it rather go up or down in the forseeable future? Appreciate every input cheers
  13. Had a dial issue aswell. Just got a new dial and replaced it myself. Really easy task and good training if you want to learn how to take movement and stem or take off hands etc. Just need some stuff to do this such as hands lifter, tweezers, small screew drivers, bergeon rodico to get rid of small dust particles and something to open the case. My CrPo looks like new after the swap. So rather dig in how to diy than sending it back to china which is a pain in the a... cheers
  14. Have to admit that it looks way better than I actually thought. Great job!
  15. Definitely go for the noob v2 116610 first because if you like the style of the watch (which is very classy in my eyes at least) it will be a keeper. The project x is a nice watch but definitely not as accurate as the noob v2. But it is still a good rep as it looks like and you have to try. Maybe the bezel is ceramic but you best send an email to puretime to check because I really have no clue. Trying to franken a 116610 would be too expensive in my eyes and it is a excellent rep out of the box! A gen bezel is basically impossible to find and if only for a fortune. Gen crystal is an option but not so sure whether it directly fits the v2. My recommendation is to order the noob v2 as a first step and then to decide. Hope it helps a little bit at least
  16. Go for the 116610 it's is even better than the bp 116610 so it is a excellent out of the box rep
  17. Pure beauty! Just wait to get him the lv dial and hands back in stock. Definitely my next acquirement! "Who has the best sub?" is definitely answered
  18. I currently own the bp sub but I am on the cliff for the new v2. Must definitely be amazing. But nevertheless bp is a great rep and the magnifying crystal is top notch.
  19. when I was new I stupidly purchased a fake pam strap over ebay! I started a dispute and they didn't agree with me. The seller still sells tons of his crappy fake pam and iwc straps and has hundreds of positive feedback. Only some get it that is fake. So to my part I have learn and for me it will never happen again in my life. But I feel sorry for people spending that much money for sth like that. Ebay should definitely improve on this. Some of us could work for them and spotting some noob and h-fac watches
  20. Damm it definitely looks spot on! Should I really sell my bp and go for the v2? Or is the bp still very close?
  21. True that so give it a go and tease us with some nice pictures. Maybe you are the next 007
  22. Haha poor guy not even gettin a bp nor v2 no but seriously is there nothing to do against such fraud?
  23. That stuff just sucks! Not even ar date magnifier crystal! Poor buyer! Hopefully he is not going to pay for it!
