Guys i want to push the button for a yachtmaster.

But dont know which is better- puretime have the noob 1:1 with the Chinese A2824

https://puretime.io/yacht-master-116622-1-1-noob-best-edition-silver-dial-on-ss-bracelet-a2824.html

And the Version with optional Swiss ETA 2824 but not declared as 1:1:

https://puretime.io/yacht-master-11...aselworld-gray-dial-on-ss-bracelet-a2836.html

What movement is better?

Best would be a 1:1 with the swiss eta and silver dial- but not listed on puretime.

What is the opinion of yachtmaster crew her?

Thanks for your help!

Best, claudio

Hello guys. Just wondering if the Daytona bracelet is interchangeable with the YM? Planning to get a noob 904L Daytona Strap and put it on the YM. Thank you.

Double bonus Noob 2824s. This pic was taken one year ago today, on their day of arrival. Rhodium one still running perfectly OOTB. Rolesium one crapped out at 8 months, I serviced the movement. It's running but not all that well. It will need a new movement soon.

Thank you. On the verge of buying YMs. I love em all. Just deciding what movement to get. Ive been a noob ETA fanboy. And reading all the comments here about the 3135 having crap reliability is making it hard for me. I plan to do crystal and dw mods with the 3135. Do you have any advice for me? I love all your watches and shots. :)

Hello again. May i know which factory and movement? Sorry for all the trouble. Thank you :)

Hey mate,

No trouble at all, my pleasure.

It’s a BP Factory with a swiss eta 2836.

No mods.

Cheers,

Im building a franken 16623 and am looking for a good two tone bracelet. Any suggestions? And for my understanding a yachmaster bracelet will also fit a daytona correct?

I am a newer member. I have several reps (Panerai, Hublot, Patek) and 2 GEN Rolex. I am considering getting a rep of a Yachtmaster.

I just scrolled thru all 96 pages and looked at some very fine watches. I am looking for the best our of t he box because I doubt I will ever mod. I would also like 904L if possible. I think both GM and AR are making models in 904. Any experience here?

I have heard of bezel issues on the AR (not clicking) and of the crystal coming off when removing he bezel on GM. It seems the Noob and JF also makes a decent rep.

I am mostly interested the Grey Dail with Blue hands.
