I know, Angus has a strange propensity to bash Noob watches, but calling them V10 is straight up mocking lol

He’s bashing noob because he’s in a way is working closely with ARF.

Yeah I know... He was closely working together with noob, when the V6S was developed, but then, suddenly, ARF seemed to be a better fit. We'll never know the real story anyways

I remember reading about the real story, dunno how real it was but I remember reading he had a big fight with noob. It was long time ago.

If XF pam777 is all sold out I will get pam111 v5.
there is not that many Luminor Marinas (44mm) left.
they seriously need to replicate pam911 and pam1021.

All of noobs new models lately are called v10. I'd say its intentional

I wonder if a short microscrew in the swan neck now is in every 111, or that is just a particular watch?

Lol not all. Just Subs - they went from v9 to v10.

Sea dweller 126600, the gmt. The v10 name is being used on different models

 

[maxracingshox]

That's only true for Rolex reps, I reckon?

Yes I forgot about SDs and GMTs but Noob Daytonas they just released are not v10.

is there any 44mm panerai with date and correct thickness?

Huh? do you mean Alessandro Bettarini case thickness which is thinner and not that bulky?

Hey guys! Just got my QC pictures for the PAM111 V4 I ordered from puretime 2 weeks ago.

Watch is already accepted!!

Now the real question is: Is it a V4 or a new V5?
I think there is slightly a nipple effect on the pinion but I am not 100% sure. And what do you think about the crownguards and caseback? Any flaws a V4 didn‘t have before but this model now has and therefore is a V5?

I am a total noob at PAM reps but it looked nice to me so I accepted already. Even if you tell me now there are 10 huge flaws I will wear it lol

^^^^
Yours appears to have a micro screw in the swan neck regulator that is too short to adjust the entire range, so likely a V5 if this is an issue that was fixed/uncommon in V4.

 

[maxracingshox]

I'd like to point something out. Remember, when the V4 was released? Everyone got excited and then we realized, that there was no "real" V4. Same now with the V5.
If you ask me, V3=V4=V5 with ever so slight variations in manufacturing, that only us nut jobs would recognize. My V4 also has the short micro metric screw for example.

It seems that the whole batch now has a short screw. I would call this batch a V3. When I started working with reps, few years ago, there were both also short microscrews from the same maker. V4 seemed to get it fixed, but now it all short again, so Noob went back with this batch again (not to mention that nipple effect). However, I believe that the most demanding people can get the CP polished flat, and microscrew can be fully winded out, so it's full length will be hidden by the swan base and the steel edge of the caseback cover thus mitigating the wrong length at least visually.

Absolutely agree with you, my 1.5 years old v4 is the same. To be honest, I've never seen a v4 with a correct, long screw. Only the PAM127 has it.

I had many 005 and 111 from Noob with a correct long screw. So pity they've failed with it now.

I thought you guys were joking with the V10, Now at every dealer I look at they call it a V4 or V5 but Puretime calls it a V10... Incredible!!!!
