Good morning gents,

I am ready to buy my first rep, and have made my mind up on which one I’m going to buy only to read more posts and change it again!

I’m stuck on a choice of 3 watches.

DAYTONA 116520 arf v2 BLACK DIAL
SUBMARINER NOOB 116619LB Smurf V7
YACHT-MASTER 116622 1:1 NOOB BASELWORLD

all 3 are amazing watches, it’s going to be my first rep and will be a daily wearer but I just can’t make my mind up. All 3 are a similar price too.

Any opinions of key things that may sway me? I.e horrible flaws or bad build quality.

Thanks

If you put those three in front of me I’d choose the Yachtmaster. But that’s my choice. What’s yours?

What color Yachtmaster? The Noob Blue will flare purple in harsh light, some like that others don't. The Noob Rolesium (white sparkle) isn't as sparkly as it used to be. The Rhodium (dark grey) is nice. I would recommend staying away from from anything RG or YG, personal opinion - you can't polish or brush out scratches without removing some of the thin colored metal coating. Don't sweat your first rep choice, plan on utlimately having all three!

Both Noobs, one for my wife, she loves it.

Thanks for your reply, I’m thinking the one on the right of your picture in 40mm, I love the grey dial. I would be strictly SS no gold at all. Thanks. What’s the durability of the bracelet like on the yacht master, is it good enough to be a daily.

Yes they are fine to wear but will scratch like any watch so you have to be mindful of that.

However, my vote is all three!!! Don't hold back, you will just end up kicking yourself and ordering the rest after you get the first one lol. Welcome to the addiction!!!

So just do it already. Noob bracelet is good. ARF may be slightly better but they don't make this model/size.

40mm - Noob does not make the 37mm. They do offer 2 movement choices. I highly recommend the ETA 2824. It's very reliable and cheap to replace. Make sure you get the movement you are willing to deal with!

Here's a link to all the Yachti's Noob makes. Just tell Ryan which you want, you can even send him the exact link to a watch.
