Hey Friends,

i thought i bought a Noobmariner but after i opened the case today i didn't really find the expected 2824, but rather something i can't really identify that tries to look like a 3135 clone.

Do you guys know which movement it is?

Thanks!!

It's a 2824 where they have placed a decorated bridge in place of the normal micro adjust screw. Basically it's harder to fine tune the movement. It's not a SA or SH movement. Never understand why they decorate a closed caseback as this would not fool a watchsmith

Yes that is normal for Noob. Sometimes their subs have different looking 2824 decorations (depending what bin whoever grabbed the movement from took it) it is still a 2824. Enjoy! And if it ever does on you, you can easily find a real ETA 2824 or Sellita equivalent to drop in, without any of the stupid engravings

Thanks so much alpaca9!

I think i am really going to buy a real eta, as they also seem to be a good investment...
