Chinanoob is a vendor, not the Noob factory. Looks to me like the link you posted is to a DJF watch. Chinanoob piggybacks off the Noob factory name, they call their watches Noob but it says Factory DJ. It has the DJF crappy date font, so I think that's what's being shown here.[/QUO


But what about the toro v2 ? any thoughts on imporvements ?

REP don’t look that bad, after tossing that ridiculous metallic insert.



It doesn’t look bad in that lighting.
in half light it’s not too bad. In bright light or even
semi-bright light it’s completely different story - you can clearly see how off it is.

Much better.
Could pass as a Mk1 at a glance...

I disagree. Sure the watch lack the “pop” that the GEN has, having tried it on. But with the 2018 MK1 on it we have come a long way,

Pic with sports coat has a filter, the rest without, outside overcast, no sun. I think it looks good. Best around for sure.

GEN MK1 vs MK2

REP is not far off. Number cutouts & and color is just a tad different from GEN.

Blue has totally different hue. it more on blue purple side. Comparing pics is pointless because those rolex ceramic pepsi inserts look different on pic vs in real.
Ive been told than DFJ will be refining their insert (v3) fingers crossed. It should be released in a couple of months.

Some more thoughts now I know taptalk is working... def a line at 18. At 6 it is not so bad. Nothing noticeable from an arms length away. Surprised how small the bracelet was - had a similar rep from dhgate cheap and had to remove far more links. Really like it. Keeps solid time so far engravings on Renault seem crisp.

So apparently GM has released some GMT with the CHS movement. Most probably the same as the DJF and Noob CHS movement. So sign of Jubilee yet but i guess it will come next.

Going to contact Sead about this - I ordered mine a couple of weeks back, but he’s slow because of raids and hasn’t got it yet
I don’t want to end up with that shitty CHS movement instead if they release it before he gets it.
