CASE : BP has sharp angle. Noob slightly different than Gen. My DJ 36 BP has similarity shape case with this 41 BP.
BEZEL : BP looks wider. Noob slightly different than Gen
DIAL : BP tick mark the fattest one. Noob a bit slim than BP but still need diet.
SWISS marking : BP make big mistake.
HOUR HAND : BP looks like another watch

BEZEL : The fluted bezel BP has sharp angle. Noob more flatted. Which bezel looks like GEN do you think???
CASE : Noob case slimmer than BP.
CROWN HEIGHT : BP crown was a bit low height than Noob.

As you can see above. From the side BP look a like DJ II. Maybe they are using their DJ II case stock.

Another thing make me sure BP using their DJ II old stock case.

BP bracelet attached to the case looks have gap.

I think Noob more accurate in this DJ 41. What do you think?

Sorry for my english.

So just to be clear... what model are these supposed to be?
Datejust II - older discontinued model that actually measures 41mm.
-OR-
Datejust 41 - the 2016/17 release that is NOT 41mm, it actually measures 39.5ish.

These pictures are comparisons of the Datejust 41 (I.e. the misrepresented and mismarketed Rolex watch that actually measures 39-40mm).

The gen Datejust II (41mm) doesn't come with jubilee bracelet (and if a rep Datejust II does come with jubilee bracelet, then it is a fantasy model)

It is also worth mentioning that both of the BP and Noob Datejust 41 do not have gen crown/stem/tube height position (the BP one is worse, and the Noob one uses a decorated A2836-2 movement - which is associated to low crown height)

Here are pics of the gen 126333 and it's gen crown/stem/tube height position:

The gen is a 36mm 116233, not a 126333. Notice the hidden clasp

I think they will release it SS with jubilee a few month later. Since Rep SS model more popular in west than the gold model.

Check this out! I love that dial and I love the jubilee bracelet, but I'm not sure how I feel about the two together.

Wow slate dial. I own this dial on DJ II. Looks really good for youngster. Also popular in Instagram.

What do you guys think about this noob datejust with blue dial:
http://www.tb-688.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=39_212&product_id=848

I was thinking about BP with blue dial but to me BP look a little purple comparing to Noob.


I can't comment on the dial but if you buy that exact model:
1. consider the BP v2 Datejust II 2824-2 instead as it is known to be the better one (e.g. bigger date window and correct crown/stem/height position). I also owned one before (and I frankened it) and it's very very good for the price.
2. The gen Datejust II never came with jubilee bracelet so that is a fantasy model. They only come with oyster bracelet. Datejust 41 on the other hand is a similar model that can come with jubilee bracelet, but it measures as 39-40mm (despite its misleading 'datejust 41' name) whereas the datejust II measures as 41mm

Ive seen those BP v2 Datejust II and blue dial color is so off comparing to gen. Gen blue doesn't look anything like the one in BP v2 Datejust II.
Those BP v2 look like this which is not what gen blue dial looks like:
IMG_9526-2.jpg

It should have different shade of blue, less purple.
Jubilee bracelet is no big deal as people put different bracelets on their Rolex watches.

Have you seen BP datejust II SS with green dial? Do gen enemies exist? I've never saw gen datejust II SS with green dial - I searched all over the internet too.

I kind of like it but I'm most sure if gen even exist and if it does I'm not sure if that color is accurate.

I miss sure the green is fantasy but it does look nice!
