soireemystique Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 (edited) I orderd 2 AP Black Themes 2014,1 from Noob and 1 from JF ,so I compmare the leather straps from both suppliers! We all know the straps are crap PU but there is a difference in both of them !! The one from the Noob is much more glossy then the JF one and find the JF more accurate !! This is my opinion on this matter but the case and dial seems to be the same ... Check it out !!!! Also the date nrs are not the same ..ex. the nr 1 of the date of the Noob model is not as it should be ,JF is correct Noob is left model JF is right model Edited November 21, 2014 by soireemystique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 JF looks pretty incredible... wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oceanglobal Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 Jf date surface is lowered but datefont on number 1-9 still smaller than it should be and the sec hand at 12hrs has white color where noob is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 Are any of the dealers selling the "2014" straps and buckles separately? Also what is the buckle width? I really prefer the buckle over the deployant clasp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpohl402 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 ^^ 20mm. Dealers should be able to source separately, yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edigital Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 JF strap does look a bit more like real leather from the pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K12AN Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Can you compare the cases too (to Gen)? It looks like the NOOB is slightly chunkier/boxier than the JF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K12AN Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 Hello all and OP Do you know if these straps are interchangeable? I.e. Would the noob one fit onto the JF and vice versa? Reason I ask is because I'd like to put a an AP rubber diver strap on a JF watch...if it's a noob strap it might not fit. If the TD can't confirm its a JF strap should I cancel?

oceanglobal Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Hi K12AN, From my experience, I've tried to fit in noob rubberclad rubber strap into 2014 roo jf and the result is ok, no adjustment needed for the screws. But this is not guaranteed because it may have some differences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K12AN Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Thanks. Wonder if the Noob and JF factories actually make the staps too? Possible they are supplied by another factory/s. I'll ask my TD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
