Well TDs can have different experiences. Natural that some TDs might get some stock earlier than others.

Until now we still haven't seen any qc pics yet, so...

I honestly do not think its out yet. I believe it's a pre release... Why would they release the blue first anyways? Odd... Although there are 5 models

Maybe get interest piqued?

 

[TheDonSL]

True true! Lol lets see what happens... I have a feeling once they release the big blue, all others will follow... Perhaps this is a test and they will release the long awaited titanium last to see if the less popular models will sell more based on release order...

And the RG case of steel, not tit like the Noob one..too light for gold edition.

How do you know it's light? RG hasn't been released yet. DO you have any inside info to share with us? ;-)

I just hope JF goes back and does the original Rubens, the RB1. Nobody ever did it, and I still love the "1" the most of all of them.

You mean this one J ?

 

[slaughterer62]

Yup. That is the one. Unique ROO dial. Love it to death.

The case seems to be Ti ... no?

I think factory did cost/benefit analysis on the amount of lume application and decided it too expensive. Lol

Judging from stingy lume job by the factory, it's quite possible. Lol

Oh yes. I have the RG Noob and it's gorgeous. But in the titanium case feels way too light for a gold model. Real gold cases are noticeably heavier than even steel. Noob had done the RG Montoya in steel and weight was convincing. Holding my Noob "Gold" RB2 and Montoya side by side the Montoya felels more gen like in the hand. I'm confident JF will do RG in steel like their Schumis etc...

Someone correct me, but in weight order of precious metals its platinum, gold, steel, titanium.

 

[Flashbolt987]

Weight order is correct

Toro said he would have my JF RBII blue Tuesday or Wednesday- of course that is China time. so maybe I have QC pics on Thursday if not Wednesday- fingers crossed...

As I've said before, it's a decent effort. Still in need of a few things but a good start. I'm looking forward to seeing the Ti version as the strap on this one looks good and no holes clasp. If we get a decent quality strap and clasp on the Ti, I'll be contacting my TD. Do you guys thing we'll be able to order just a strap and clasp? I know that to date JF straps have a gap on Noob cases, but it may be worth a pop?

I am curious about the interchangability of the JF strap on noob case too.

 

[Flashbolt987]

Quite unbelivable that a simple thing like that 1pm screw and better date wheel wasn't addressed.

THE JF RBII still a no-show. WTF is going on with JF- introduce and then no delivery. I keep getting promises but so far no show.
