What is Noob Factory..?

[ryanwayer]

Dear All, I'm new to this website, Could you please tell me what is Noob Factory?

I saw many products from Noob seems have better quality , Is it true?

Thanks.

Its a factory making high quality reps, some of its models are supposed to be better than other rep making factories

 

[trailboss99]

NF are one of the three big factories making high quality reps.
the name stems from the fact they made the case set used in the famous Noobmariner (tho not the watch itself). NF use George of WM9 fame to design and build their moulds which is one reason they make good stuff.

Not all factories make all models this current trend of calling everything Noob factory or Hublot V1 factory is in the main not true.
The Noob name was associated with a Rolex Sub/YM and was not actually made in China it was made from parts sourced and assembled in Bangkok by a small group of importers,this has since stopped and the importers have gone their separate ways.
There is however one of the original importers still making what I suppose you could call a Noob sub although it is not the same as the original Noob sub it is better than the average Chinese version.

RIP Robert....

Still, he knew his sh1t....

That is interesting.
I thought he had vanished????

 

[trailboss99]

WM9 has vanished, George will still be around working for the factories making moulds.

I read that there is no Noobfactory.
On another forum they call it AP factory.

 

[trailboss99]

Well, you read wrong. Even the NF call it the NF.
As I said above they are not the folk responsible for the Noobmariner, they simply made the case used in it's assembly.

They can believe what they like but according to the dealers who buy from them every day what I have told you is correct.

So even the factory knows we call them noobfactory, and they've adopted it as their own? Thats kind've funny :lol:

Who coined that name, TTK? Then Reg called 'em nymph, etc?

 

[ViperGTS]

If we have found George, does that mean we have found where the WM9 money people have lost is currently residing...

 

[ryanwayer]

So noobfactory is based on China or Thailand now..?

Who said we found him? All I know is he does the moulds for NF. that does not equate to knowing his whereabouts any more than I know exactly where NF is.

So noobfactory is based on China or Thailand now..?

As I said, the Noobfactory has nothing to do with the noobmariner other than they made the case set for it. The noobmariner was made by three guys in TH (called the Noobmaker) who have nothing to do with what is now called NF other than they once bought casesets off them for the noobmariner.

What is referred to as the Noobfactory has never been in TH, that is/was the Noobmaker.

Alles Klar?

 

[jonasprivate]

Yes now its clear.

 

[trailboss99]

LOL, I know it's confusing, it took us a while to work out WTF was going on when the dealers began to talk of noobfactory this and noobfactory that. Usualy we come up with these names (in the case of the noobmariner it was Pugwash) bit this one came from the factory themselves so it took a bit to work out that noobfactory was not the same as noobmaker.
