Some bad information above. The V10s is not actually a noob. It’s a copy of copy if that makes sense. Smaller unknown factory is producing these. I’ve purchased two of them and they are way nicer than the actual noobs imho. One of the better subs...if your good with an eta which I much prefer to super clone movements anyway
You are right bro, there was a lot of confusion when these models came out. I think you were lucky if you got two good ones. That you find them better than Noob V10 is a truly sad commentary on Noob's current quality but I agree they have been on a steady decline since their June 2019 raid and change of ownership.
Even the real Noob V10 Subs had QC issues and were discounted shortly after their release.

Here's a comment from the extensive thread about the "Noob" V10s linked below. It would make sense that the maker would have a relationship with Noob since they were using its name.
"This is Sky factory using noob name. And sometime using noob leftover casekits to create cheap watches with noob leftover parts."
There is a ton of info about the Sky V10s in the thread below along with pics and links to videos, etc.

No doubt it is a very good watch for the price but I stand by my statement that you get what you pay for. For $140 more OP you can buy an RXF which is significantly better in many respects. Date window, datewheel, crystal, cyclops, bezel insert, dial markers, SEL recess, no SEL gaps, higher crown position like gen, etc. It's certainly well worth the relatively small price hike.
