Review: 93250 WM9 vs Noob bracelet

[CharlieUK]

I decided to share some shots to help people decide if the extra $$$ for the wm9 bracelet is worth it.

Only each person can decide that for themselves.

The wm9 is on the left.

The wm9 is finished nicely where you cannot see the lines where the 3 pieces formed the end link.

Also, the wm9 accepts the 2mm gen bars, and has nice finishing around the recesses for removing the lugs.

The clasp print is much nicer on the wm9.

here is the noob.

The crown is excellent. To me, this is almost worth the $125.

And here is the notorious noob crown. :shh:

it's hard to see it in this picture, but the noob lacks a lot of craftsmanship on the clasp.

The wm9 is on the left.

The endlink engraving on the wm9 is very crisp.

Hope this is helpful!

hi,

thanks for the comparison review.

great info!

Thanks for that nice review!

On WM9 braceletclasp the number is M something so I think he has different numbers on the clasp???

[rosnik]

I suppose this WM9 bracelet in pictures is V2.

The V1 did not accept 2 mm springbars.

Is this correct?

I find that the safety clasp doesn't engage properly on my WM9. It's always a tiny bit loose, and I find myself pushing it over that tiny bit every now and then.

Not enough to get upset about, though..

I believe the thickness/curve shape of the SEL is still an issue. Or has it been resolved in the latest version?

There is an easily visible gap at the case, and a tiny tiny tiny gap at one side. Bah, I can't quickly find a picture of the gen to compare. Not particularly inclined to ask my boss if he wants to do a quick side by side comparison
