Is it possible to fit the endlinks from a 116519 to a 116500 then add an oyster strap ?

No

As far as I'm aware the end links on the OysterFlex models is one piece with the case. That's what I've seen on a RG from a friend. I have never had one with me so I can't 100% say but I think this carries over to the other models as well.

hibee999 as QueTip correctly stated and explained.
The GEN 116519LN has fixed endlinks on the case. Not the same as the 116500 - here the bracelet = SEL makes the closure to the case.
The REP Daytona 116519LN and also Gold / Everose models have an additional "lug hole" in the Daytona case.

See therefore the picture:

Thanks for the feedback

I normally wear my 116500 on an Oysterflex, i bought some smarty endlinks but the fit isn’t great.... I’ll have to think of another way

Cheers :)

The crown action and handwinding feel magnificent, very solid and smooth. I'm just not sure if I like the way Oysterflex sits on my wrist..

I was worried that it might look tiny on my 7.25" wrist, but I think it looks fine:

Looks awesome. I know this new clone movement has been out a while now. Not many complaints on the stability so I guess its pretty stable? I'm wondering about the chrono function?? How stable is the chrono? Can you reset it anywhere and it resets perfectly to 12? The reason I ask this is because with pretty much ANY A7750 based movement if you reset the chrono between the 25 and 45 second mark it will cause the chrono hand to become off centre when it resets at 12. That pisses me off to no end and its not always an easy fix of simply resetting the hands.

I can't talk about the long term stability of course, but I've ran the chrono twice today and it has reset exactly to zero. This movement has nothing to do with the 7750,it's an actual clone. It feels great, the best rep movement I've ever handled.

Thats great to hear. At what point did you reset it though? Can you try a few times and reset the large seconds hand at the 30, 40, 50 second mark? Does it reset to 0 each time?

No idea. I let it run for 2 and 5 minutes, stopped and reset. And it's at 0 now. I'll try later in the day and I'll let you know.

OK, just tried it, I was curious :)

It resets to 0 every single time, no matter where you stop it.

As far as I can say, two of my four Noob Daytonas do not reset properly, which is very annoying. Both of them are out for repair.

Hmmm 2 different experiences from 2 different members. LOL

That is my concern - I've had over 30 chronos in the past and none of them reset properly especially when the big seconds hand is stopped and reset anything past the 30 second or so mark - I think because the reset hammer hits too hard at this point and beyond it never resets to 12 perfectly. I know this clone movement does not work the same way but I was hoping for a 100% stable chrono as I use this function quite a lot.

The Noob SA4130 clone has been out for a year and has probably undergone some refinement over that time. This movement feels buttery smooth and resets perfectly for me, having just received mine in the past month. I plan to use the chrono frequently in the kitchen as the tool it was designed to be. My ETA7753 and DD/ETA2892 movements are less refined than this clone movement by far.
