  1. The QC from the factory is not very good. A gasket could even be completely missing, as far as you know. top quality diver/sport replicas are able to be waterproof but you have to check them.

    Thank you for answers. I have already ordered it from Ryan, I will check it, but i read the JF V6 factory have better QC vs the Noob 5.1..

  2. Hi rek001. Please read the post #10, sentence three:)  There is the description about the watch and beezel. They exist in two versions and I own both.

    If you ask for a high gloss and shiny beezel, and you're lucky it will be real ceramic. The matt finish beezel it will be painted aluminium. (i taking apart one and it's kind of anodized AL)

    I also own a spare blue ceramic 300M blue beezel, so they exist :) It can't be scratched with a knife :)

  3. I bougt from InTime. Both have non marked 2824-2 asian nickel plate movements without any omega marks on it. Anyway, the other claimed ETA SMP's had only sticker on the movements, wich fall down after a while, so this is not a disadvantage for me. The case had all omega marks, even on the caseback inside, but the material used (or the finishing at all) not as good as Noob produce. (the caseback had to be tight only with a sticky ball, othervise you will damage the threads on it). After a silicon grease the watch is waterproof, but need to check it at a local watchmaker!

    Need to check the springbars too! I find the springbars ends (also near the divers clasp) need to be push inside on their place with a little screwdriver and double check.

    The pearl is too high, after a minute heating you will able to push it inside with a soft plastic material to fit the beezel height.

    After this mods and with a little lucky it's a perfect rep :) I like It!

  4. Hi there. I got two 300M Ceramic  in last month from same seller and they had asian movement and both with 3-4s gain. Interesting, the first had aluminium beezel painted in blue, and the second is a real shiny blue ceramic.

    The beezel is misaligned a little bit on both near the 12 o' clock, but is fine from 20cm distance. The bracelei it's fine about a half hour sanding (with 1200 Scotch sandpaper) on the edges and after tightening all screws, but not as good as Noob CrPo bracelet, which is good out of box. The first one had some little scratches on the AR, the second had some little painting "drops" on the dial, but they are only noticed with magnifiying glass.

    You never look at reps with magnifiying glass!! :)

    And in final, the second one has misaligned hour markers :) Overall, from two reps you can make a good one, OR if you had lucky, the first will be perfect. (I haven't too much lucky, i was born in 13 :)

    If you not use the magnifiying glass, this is a  super rep, i wear one a daily beating, i don't regret this purchase.

    Cheers.
