Hi guys!
I would like some opinions on my modded sub so I can improve on the next one. Thanks all.

Third times a charm thanks.

OK, here's honest opinion - I don't know, what you modded, but crown guards are horrible, rehaut is super wokky, and something is definitely wrong with pearl.

 

[TESLA760]

That rehaut.......Ooof.

 

[peterpotamus]

as said above, that rehaut sucks

is it a 42PO 16610LV?

 

[TQDG]

Bezel, rehaut, crown guards, pearl, dial printing looks way off (see depth rating)... my goodness.

On the bright side, the cyclops looks like it has AR, so there's one positive.

 

[Bonesey]

Not sure what you guys are looking at but the rehaut isn't that wokky at all. It's a little deep but that's not really that bad. It's not a TC sub though.

I think you maybe went a little overboard on the trimming of the crownguards. It's a little extreme, next time you need to continue to put the crown back to check that you aren't removing too much material from the cg's.

It also looks like you've epoxyd the pearl as well. A good solution is also to get a Watchmaterial pearl and install that. They're only $10 + shipping if you're in the US.

 

[Tagfan1]

Yes it's a NOOB 16610lv.
Was debating on removing the engraving but sounds like it has to go.

 

[Tagfan1]

Good eye Bonesey yes I epoxied the pearl.

 

[rsh]

this is in no way a NOOB 16610LV

the rehaut engraving actually lines up decently, noob does not

but that is not all that gives it away....look at the date position, it is actually in the ETA position and there is no dwo. the Cyclops is also too far over. Dial print and markers look way off...I actually had one of these in a 21j variant like 3 years ago. Not bad but way off really. On a good note, I remember my sub had a great clasp....

 

[Tagfan1]

I've got to believe its a noob I ordered it from Trevor.

 

[rsh]

its not

 

[Bonesey]

I have to agree, noob at least uses a DWO and not the ETA date position.

 

[Tagfan1]

Thanks for the input everybody. If general consensus is that this is not a NOOB then ill be giving all of my future business to a different TD.

Why ? It's not the TD's fault. This is the most replicated watch in the history of mankind. Your options are endless.

 

[Tagfan1]

Because I specifically ordered a NOOB sub. If that isn't what I'm being sent then it is the TD's fault.

 

[TESLA760]

You should direct some of that anger at yourself for ruining what was probably a decent watch from the factory.
