Wait until you have enough money for the ZZF. Buying a shitty rep that your probably not gonna be happy with, just to save a few bucks, seems like a bad idea.

the ZZF out the box, is an amazing rep, and later on, if you wanna do some light mods, you can, and the end result is going to be awesome.

i got one with a Gen crystal and ARF clasp, and it’s so close to my gen that it’s ridiculous.

Nice choice of upgrades, I feel like the crystal on the ZZF V2 is the weakest point.

It makes a world of difference. And with a gen crystal, the DW size and magnification is correct. It also changes the color of the dail

I would save for a bit and go for the ZZF if I were you. Don’t nickel and dime and settle for a lesser watch. You’ll get the cheaper watch and eventually see what the other members were talking about and will want to upgrade.

Honestly I don’t think I’m as far down the rep rabbit hole as some users on here, I won’t be analysing the piece under magnification for differences to a gen, hence the small budget allocation.

I appreciate everybody’s input greatly, I think I’m set on the V10 noob.

Thank you everybody!

Is the difference only with a gen crystal? Or will a prof one make the difference too?

I have no clue, but I would never get a prof, the price difference is not that big, so you might as well get the real thing

It would be interesting to see some comparison photos of your ZZF and Gen. Any chance you could post some?

Thanks
 
I’ve gone with the V10 A2836 Noob, has anyone got any recommendations for getting these serviced? I’m in the Midlands in the UK

Curious what TD did you use?

Personally I wouldn't worry about getting it serviced. If it ever dies you can easily replace the movement. If you had got the SA3135 then it would be a different story.

If you want some advice on service in the UK p0pperini might be able to help you. He has some posts in this thread: https://forum.replica-watch.info/for...fect-clone-sub

Noob has the genuine like case than VRF.

So Noob v10 is not a bad option since they are offering a better price now.

FYI: If you want the best rep at the moment go for ZZF V2S (it has better bezel and dial)

dear, my friend swimmed with this Hulk Noob and the insert was dammaged. do you know if i can switch the noob insert by a ZZF insert?


In my opinion i will buy a ZZF V2S

I think OP has already paid for the watch? I just got a ZZF V2s and it looks great OOTB, only problem is a glidelock that's stuck and WD40 don't seem to work.

Yes, you can swap if you can get hold of one. ZZF is using cleanfactory bezel inserts.
Check with TD's here, you will be able to source one.
