omgiv Posted February 11, 2013 Report Posted February 11, 2013 Hi Guys, I am looking at getting a Noob 127 after CNY and am trying to get my information straight as far as mods needed. One of the things I have a question about are the hands. I searched this and other forums but can't find the information. I am hoping that some of the experts here can enlighten me. The Noob hands seem to have a flat on the point of the hands, where as the genuine hands are pointy. The aftermarket hands on eBay also have the flat section. I have several genuine pictures saved and it looks like there were two types of hands used. The biggest difference to me is the minute hand. One set has a longer point while the other is stubby. Is that correct? Also, where is the best place to get more accurate hands? Thanks in advance for enlightening the uneducated Puretime Noob Longer Pointed Minute Hand Shorter Stubby Minute Hand
Watchmeister Posted February 11, 2013 Report Posted February 11, 2013 I have never seen a noob in the flesh but I can tell you that the DSN hands are really close. I have compared them to gen in the past.
omgiv Posted February 11, 2013 Author Report Posted February 11, 2013 Thanks watchmeister. I will look into the DSN hands. Do you remember when you compared them and was it on this board. I searched but couldn't come up with anything. Thanks again!!!!

I searched but couldn't come up with anything. Thanks again!!!! I never posted it. Someone sent me a DSN FIddy to look at and I had an EL and a gen at the time. The DSN hands looked really good. Much better than the EL's. But as I said i haven't seen a noob in the flesh..
omgiv Posted February 12, 2013 Author Report Posted February 12, 2013 Thanks again for the info. I have contacted David to see if I could get a set.
