markiemark Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Some one finally got one: http://www.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/latest-sub-noob-153095.html I can live with the insert, but when I look at the sel fitment I start to weep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derik429 Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Andrew is my guy and I always buy from him, Do you think the BP submariner is worth getting? Really in the market for one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wepiii Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 (edited) I have both. In my opinion... BP Bracelet sucks, Noob is way better. Pearl is better on Noob. Insert is better on BP. AR is way better on BP, Noob is too blue. Dial is better on Noob. Finish is better on Noob. Neither are close to a "super rep". Combining parts from both might help. http://s1280.photobucket.com/user/wepiii/media/photo1_zpsd53f49e5.png.html] http://s1280.photobucket.com/user/wepiii/media/photo2_zpsad75279f.jpg.html] Edited August 3, 2013 by wepiii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipw1999 Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Which has better lume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wepiii Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Lume on both is awesome. Best of any watch I've had, rep or gen. Same exact color and intensity on both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derik429 Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 BP bracelet really that bad? Any easy fixes on it that you can do yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rek001 Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 What exactly is wrong with the BP bracelet? Sorry if this has been discusses before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmtlover Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 If someone put's these watches together and waterproof them, what would be a reasonable price? And from what parts would this best version exist? If the bezel assembly isn't interchangeable then I think this build would be "best": -BP case -BP bezel assembly + insert -BP hands -BP hourmarkers -noob dial -noob bracelet If bezel assembly is interchangeable then: -noob case -noob dial -noob bracelet -BP bezel assembly +insert -BP hands -BP hourmarkers -BP hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OysterSub Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 This thread is awesome. Thanks for all of the information. I'm venturing out of my omega realm and buying the noob version from PT. From what I understand most people like the BP crystal but the new noob version has the Rolex crown etching in the middle of the sapphire glass. I don't think anyone's mentioned that at all but man it sure got me excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtlover Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Confirmed on RWI, bezel assembly not interchangeable :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
van_damme1988 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Noooo... So the only solution for perfect ceramic insert is gen, which as a combo with dial sells currently on RLX forums for $1100? Holy cow. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmtlover Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Good news, some TD's are reporting that there already is a 2nd batch with bolder numbers on the insert. Already some pics on RWI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markiemark Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Yeay! The bezel looks pretty darn good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtlover Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Second batch has thicker insert font, is confirmed. And looks like the sel is also tighter but that could just be some lucky guys who have just received their 2nd batch Noob sub-c. All of them had a better sel. We are talking about three so far so could just be lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtlover Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Back and forth. The thicker insert font appears to be a photography issue, not an actual improvement they made... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
van_damme1988 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Also it looks that DWO print on the secon batch is offset to the left. Edited August 6, 2013 by van_damme1988 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aa007210 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Hi all, I started this tread a while ago because I wanted to find out which is the best or ultimate out of the box Rolex sport model Noob factory or BP Factory. I read almost all the post which followed on my question and I also asked some of the RWG TD's about their opinion. I found out that there is only a difference between the Noob and BP version Submariner No Date when you look at the case and dial. There is no difference in the lume; although some of the TD's told me that only the BP would have SuperLumed dial. When you see this model either on the website of Puretime, Trusty Time, Precious Time or Toto's you will see the pictures with a SuperLumed dial. I will show you that there is no difference at all. First I will post the Submariner No Date Noob and second the Submariner No date BP. Both watches have the A2836-2 movement.

markiemark Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Nice pictorial! Thanks! How is the pearl on the BP? And does the Noob bracelet fit the BP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aa007210 Posted August 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 The pearl of the BP is IMO the same (heights) only the triangle is different. The color of both pearls is different. I don't know wether the bracelet of the Noob will fit on the BP. I would only replace the clasp. Maybe the case of the BP is also a bit thicker and in that case the bracelet of the Noob won't fit. I found some pics of the pearl was forgotten to post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
