Now the 1 million dollar question is: VSF CRPO or Noob LMPO? :headdesk:

First LMPO with 2892 clone, nice. This movement comes with the 8500 date which is fantasy, but I like its look even more:)
This batch will be a solid base for 2500D frankens.

tripdog do you perhaps know whether the 2892 date disc and 2824 date disc are one and the same?
The movements change the date in the different directions, but tabs of the discs looks the same.

They both rotate clockwise, I'm pretty certain they are interchangeable.

Wow.
Didn't expect a V6 from Noob, for this older model. Great ! Looks fantastic !
Can't wait to see the video. Especially the clarity and the AR of the crystal, in order to make the new ceramic dial shine.
Otherwise I will install a 2 x AR aftermarket crystal.
The date font doesn't bother me, as long as the date is aligned properly.
Merry x-mas to me !!

Wow, noob is still making non-Rolex watches? I somewhat regret selling my V1 years ago so this may be great news to me, not my wallet.

So the date font is wrong if I understand correctly? Is it very obvious?

DW honestly doesn't look that bad. These are ultra-rare in gen so its not likely anyone to get that close, know the tells of an LMPO date wheel and call your ass out. They'd have a better chance calling you out for simply having one on your wrist.

I was waiting for your comment mate! Nice job as always you saw flaws that I couldn't see at first sight.

It seems they are doing like with every other rep, two steps ahead and one step back. The never ending rep game.

DW is a pretty easy fix, could be they only had the 2892 movements with such font, I am ordering one before they fix it lol

Good to see Noob is still in the LMPO game, it should motivate OMF to fix their date and insert.

I dropped my omf order, only reason I considered it was because of ceramic dial. But now noob has come through so Id prefer that.

Also pearl on omf looks horrible. Rest all is acceptable

V7 will have the correct datewheel?
