At first i decided on a EWF GMT Master II on Friday and purchased that. I did not hear anything back by Sunday and so when I contacted QC on Sunday Elena said they were out of stock and to patiently wait. However I changed my mind to a day date noob. Elena told me to custom order the price difference. The website is pretty self explanatory and I paid for the first watch with visa. But for the daydate (custom order of the difference in price ) the transaction would not go through. I could not reach anyone on the site regarding the transaction issue so I decided to buy a gift card master card and try that. it worked with the gift master card. Now i am awaiting QC pictures. Will see how this goes as I'm excited for this watch!

pure time actually failed the QC test on the watch as the date wheel was found to be off center. they sent it back for replacement. Really glad this was caught before delivery .

The fact that they saw it was not good enough is a great sign, that they care about what they send out and the actual customer.

It fills me with confidence I have made the right choice to buy a rep from these guys.

I'm quite a patient chap , but the anticipation waiting for me QC pics is getting to me.and it's only been a few days.lol

Good luck pal..

just as an update, I have not heard back since from pure time. looks like it's taking a while to source another one from noob. I was hoping for QC within 5 days tbh. will keep posted.

it looks like noob finally fixed the fat stick markers, they are now slim as they should be.

After 3 QC rounds I finally pulled the trigger on one. it seems all the Noob Day Dates have a really bad date wheel. This particular example is actually by far the best out of the bunch I saw...even though it is still off center. Let my bad choice be a lesson to you. Use the money towards a gen oyster perpetual instead or something better.

i think the noob case and bracelet is much better. it's just the date wheel. I might also add it's a little too yellow. compared to a gold ring on pic below:
