Posted this on few other forums, so why not here as well :)

...

Just got this one today from Angus, overall fit and finish is simply outstanding, but you be the judge.

Few mods (although not totally necessary)

- CG edges softened

- CG lever pin flattened and polished (mine came slightly rounded)

- CG lever refinished, edges polished and tip rounded

- polished the crown as it came with rough machine marks

The Noob's level of attention to detail and craftsmanship is of sort that would make even people like Kbiz, projectologist, Brobert and other 'machinists' salivating :) LOL!

Rather than going into a detailed review-style write up, let the photos do the talking this time.

For those still claiming H-fact 243 is "better" than Noob V2...you should maybe invest in some good glasses :)

Pretty sick how good that really is....

Thanks for sharing D :tu:

Yeah, these 243s are really well done. The attention to detail and machining work is outstanding on it, indeed.

:)

great watch :) cant wait to get mine as well :)

btw how did you polished your crown??

any infos please?

Thanks bud. I use pretty much manual process for this as it's very easy to over-do it when it comes to crown teeth polishing. I have had for some time a little plastic wedge with a sharp end at about 25-30 degrees angle, perfect for inserting between the teeth, inside the cavities. It's one of those Compaq laptop opening service parts. You can see its photo here: http://publius.mu.nu...es/2005_03.html .

Then I wrap a cape cod around the sharp end, insert it between the teeth and start move moving it horizontally. Take your time, then do the same with a clean cloth insted of CC for fine polished finish. It's not exactly a fun job but the result is more than rewarding. That's all really, no rocket science there ;)
