Now comes the wait.

What made you choose the BP version? I trust you read up about sea masters in the omega section before buying?
Toros good though you will be pleased!

I've spent days reading and came to the conclusion that BP is a titch more reliable than Noob, depending on batch and yada yada. but there's been an up rising of faulty Noobs popping up in the forums recently.
I haven't gotten QC's yet, but it's only been about a day since WU cleared the money. Not worried, just anxious. :hehehe:

are the movements different in the two versions? i thought both had same
i believe the end links on noob are more accurate
but bp has its own positives

 

[ScruffyL]

I don't believe that they are, The noob version says Asian 2836 automatic whereas the BP says asian clone 2836. Moreover the Noob version is a solid $100 more expensive. And I'm just starting out. I can drop $500 on a Rolex DSST when the obsession really sinks in.

Received QC pics yesterday and got tracking infos today. Well on it's way. All going smoothly so far

The watch arrived yesterday and I am thrilled with the quality. I'm having a link removed right now but tomorrow I should be able to post pictures.
All in all, it took 8 days of traveling, and customs didn't even raise an eyebrow.
