Noob never announced a V2. The two most obvious flaws in the Noob release are the red triangle is too close to the ROLEX text (because the rep GMT wheel is larger, along with the dial, crystal and the bezel), and the GMT numerals are printed straight, not along an arc to match the wheel curve. This is most apparent between 20 - 24, being especially bad at 22 -24.

Here’s my Noob v2 Sky Dweller on Black Dial

This rep has both those original flaws so if someone told you yours is a V2, IMO they would be mistaken.

I have seen more than one recent purchase of what I believe are leftover old stock with different substandard bracelets. If that's being called a V2 it's not an improvement.

Too add , the fluted bezel in general where it is white gold and have sharp glowing edges , this feature obviously not there in rep where fluted bezel is steel and the edges art not sharp.

Will not talk about movement and bezel command in gen cause this is something impossible to be replicated.

I bought the rep to compare with my gen , its in KJ2020 post above , and ya not even close imo

Noob made the only great one and they have (apparently) closed permanently after being raided. Other factory Skydwellers were once marginally passable due to nothing better but now pale in comparison.

Some more info here

Can i get an opinion on this one https://trustytime.io/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_407&products_id=23147
is it a decent replica ? (it’s also stated that’s month can be adjusted) so i believe it’s fully functional

That looks like it might be OK to me bro. There is only one movement these models can have. This looks a lot like the Noob but it says 904L and it's $100 less than the Noob was, so there may be some shortcuts taken in quality. Noob is 316L.

I would give this one a try if I didn't already have one (or three in my case, haha.)

Regardless of the 42mm case diameter the Skydweller looks very prominent on the wrist. Here you have a side-by-side comparison with a 43,5mm PO:

Possible to find a rose gold/chocolate dial Skydweller or have those not been repped yet?
