I don't think there's any new movement, looks like the good old unreliable CHS movement, they've just changed the decoration

GMT-Master II 116710 LN One question: is it better OOTB a Noobfactory V8 1:1 SS A2836 or GMF 1:1 904 Black Dial A2836 ? this because I wanna have a reliable mechanism and not a time bomb.....even with ICHS.

The answer is in your question, they have the same movement, an a2836. So they both are equally reliable

Maybe I wasn't so clear, sorry for that. Considering that they are both reliable and that's why I am picking one of these two watches: which the closer to the genuine one in term of
bezel
cristal
cristal height
clasp
dial
and so on....
thanks to everyone will give me a piece of advice

Both have pros and cons on different things. Just pick one and you’ll be happy with that. If not sell m2m and get the other but really neither is any better. They just have different flaws and you’ll be happy with any of them.

I think the Noob is considerably more expensive so if all things are equal that may be the deciding factor.
FWIW I read through all the GMTII threads and went with the GMF BLNR ICHS as I can live with the crystal being a bit too high and the rehaut inscription being misaligned. S451 including S/H. Can't get a Steinhart or Certina for that ....
If something better hits the rep world I may get that ... or just stick with what I have.
It's on my doorstep now!! yay!!
