I wished mine was still in good running condition. Should’ve know the low amplitude was a hint of some issues. Worse is I can’t anyone in Spore to fix it for me.. lucky

Yes I think the battery on this model is slightly bigger than the other Daytonas inside. Also it could b the insert is made from real chocolate adding more weight. ha ha



haha dark chocolate:D and maybe a scale with some weight problems :p

Now now, what do you think about the crazy idea to remove the rotor from the Noob? Mine is a bit noisy, and even my girlfriend that handled it asked me "is there anything loose in here?", you can really feel the moving rotor inside while having it in your hands, and that's an instant tell, how could you improve that? other than removing the rotor? (it would be totally silent since there would be no rotor lol)

Gen Daytona’s aren’t silent like submariners and sea dwellers. You can hear them spin, go check rolexforums and other watch forums about Daytona rotor noise.

Also - clasp and bracelet are improved a lot on 904L noob.

i doubt it has anything to do with the fact that they’re using 904L... but I owned both v1 and v2 904L and 904L version is noticeably better. They probably just spent more time manufacturing it better.

i own a daytona, and it's far far more silent than the noob one, my noob is even more noisy than a JF 15400 v3 that i own sadly

domiffm good for you that Domi changed it to white


Sent from my iPad with Tapatalk

Hehe, yes! He convinced me that the white dial looks better especially when you look the sh*tty black dial from noob. So he switched it for me with a spare white Noob dial.

In addition i have already a second one here because I was in spending spree :p

And may I ask why would anyone in their right mind expect a $500 replica to perform as well as a $10k gen?

never said i was expecting it to be just as silent, but it really feels like an heli on my wrist. Much worse than my 15400, which is noisy too! i thought that by replicating the movement they would have made it a bit more silent
