I had to use some extra links from my Noob GMT II, but this watch is fantastic. Yes I know it's the SS version!

Nice one

It's a fantasy model and never made in SS which is a really big tell.
Was wondering if someone who has received the watch knows the weight? From what I’ve read consensus is that this is only ~50 grams ish lighter and since the date wheel has been fixed no other major/noticeable flaws?
Guys don't get so hung up on how much the watch weighs. The vast majority of new reps produced are of good quality in the $400-$600 range. I have never met anyone in a pub with a pair of scales asking if they could weigh my watch. Others keep asking for a lume shot as if its the B all and end all. The truth is even on a gen it does not last long. For a real good lume shot for those so hung up on it buy a Nite watch as the lume lasts for 25 years without a light source (amazing I have one).
Hi guys why are there puretime, 01, 03, 05? I'm currently dealing with puretime Jennifer. Is it reliable?
Puretime are reliable. Many sites change their domain to avoid closing down by authorities.

The DW on the 3135 is still not fixed, or at least it wasnt just before CNY - its ARF Fat.
I have a ARF with Gen XTAL and DW with a movement service - i am considering selling PM me if interested and I will put it up on member sales.
Just found that comparison. Is that an ARF vs NOOB? Does anyone understands what is he saying in the video?

Just received my watch from Andrew, it feels and looks great, but my only issue may be the bezel is a bit too dull behind the numbers? Here is the link of the watch and some pics. Let me know what you guys think!!

(I'm by no means a photographer obviously, so let me know if you want different angles and more pics.)

why did you go for BP? only because of the wrapping? It looks like the noob version has really bad gold plating, but ARF holds up really well
Hi everyone, just new to the forum's, and i need some help, i'm ready to take the plunge on my first replica Yacht Master, but cant decide which one to get, after reading this post all away from page 1 too page 27, what i thought was going to be a simple purchase has grown into mass confusion. Chosing between ARF large DW and shorter straps too, Noob Factory's sharp edges and everyone waiting for Ver 2, I was looking into buying from (Puretime), but there lack of interest in returning my email to not excepting credit cards at the current time. i have decided to go to (TrustyTime) thanks to user Kozo.
Now what i'm asking is if you can look over these 3 choices and let me know which one you think is the over all best, I'm leaning towards "Noob factory" it looks to hit more of the key elements i'm looking for .
Thanks everyone.

im also trying to decide. here are my considerations:
- JF is not an option. the finishing is not on the same level as NOOB and ARF. The bezel has some weird effect, depending on the light.
- ARF has corrected the date font on the A2824 movement, so that version is a good option. 3135 has fat numbers, so its out.
- The numbers on the bezel of the noob version has round corners. Not as refined as the ones on the ARF.
- Noob comes with 2 extra straps. Its always good to have more straps to find the right size for you.
- On the ARF, you can only have 2 straps, so you have to take care and choose the right size.
- ARF has a better bracelet, with a real metal blade.
- I´ve been reading a lot about people having problems with the NOOB´s gold plating. The ARF seems to hold much better.
So, if you want the best, at the moment, its probably the ARF with the 2824.
Noob is also very good, but the problem with the gold plating really worries me.
Hi! Why did you rejected the noob version 2 times? I want to understand the 100USD difference between the ARF
