There's always an alternative somewhere... Worst case scenario. Remove the cyclops, chemically remove the AR on inner part of the xtal.

Nicer lugs and overall shape, although 43mm here and there says nothing until I can see it on the wrist. The cyclops though... I would change that xtal ASAP if the overall fit was good and I liked it.

I thought the overlayed text from the previous scammers advert on the new one, being identical doesn't exactly in addition with the remaining factors, inspired a "not guilty until otherwise proven". The proof is above. Better proof than that.. Well sure. I'll take the Sub. Payment upon delivery. I don't even need it, but if that's what it takes to save a bargain seeker, sure.

I was hard on him, that I do not hide, but this stuff reaaaaally bugs me. If you guys know me by now, you know that I have a big problem - we can call it almost a pathological hatred - for people profiting on others, and scamming is the ultimate form of that behaviour.

He might change his handwriting next time.. So until otherwise proven, a banged up TC sub with grainy pics from a fresh poster is in my eyes a SCAM.

Now this... Finally have an incentive to buy the SM300, I wasn't superfine of the ones released a couple of years ago.. But this? Suits my modernized but close-to-replica stand that I have. Kind of like my Tudor 7928 with Glidelock solid-midlink bracelet. Why use an ancient movement and rattly bracelet? I like my watches to feel and look new, but not modern industrialized and sterile... http://www.ablogtowatch.com/omega-speedmaster-seamaster-railmaster-1957-trilogy-60th-anniversary-limited-edition-watches/

Now it seems that the dealers have caught up and are calling the Yuki/JF movements SH313X and the others SA3135

You guys could try the contact I've given TickleShoes to see if he can get you gen ones (if it should be of great importance...) Also... I guess it's safe to say now that the 114060 3130 is most likely also custom... So there we go. The Yuki "3135" with a "free" watch included, and also 2 extra movement options. This thread is awesome.

We should make a PDF thread... I have some more juicy stuff, however, mostly Panerai related. Anyone else have anything interesting?

I keep telling my wife that all the time...

I have to say that my pictures in the thread are from crown and skull. And he agrees.... JF and Yuki appear to be macroscopically identical. He has ordered one too do some research, but so far there is no reason not to assume that @chefcookis wrong. I also agree with this.. Look at the details. Bridges. Screws. There's a huge difference between Noob and JF.
-
I'll take it... I need a good base for my 2xAR x-tal and was planning on buying a Yuki, so why not...
-
I must say that I stand corrected until otherwise proven (read: until I get a JF clone in my hands and notice that some crucial component in fact is not compatible..) YUKI: Noob clone: JF clone:

Couldn't really decide... Modded PAM622 w/ AntiqueLeather-straps or 6154 w/ Manufattura Serioso (now that is some crappy italian grammatics, but awesome straps) mustard strap

Umm... Since when is a Sa3135 v2 a Yuki3135? If it were that easy why buy the mvmt for 400 USD from Yuki when you can get the everything else for extra 48 USD?
