I think this thread is a helpful case-study. Here we were presented a Noob watch and told his was H factory. Without fail, most comments centered around how much like Noob it looked and how H factory is improving.

There are many watches with both H Fac and Noob reps, with both classed as super reps, yet there obvious flaws that separate the two and make it obvious that you are looking at a Noob (CG body, dial print quality, lug shape, etc...). Does it really make sense to have both watches classed as SUPER REP, when one is clearly more accurate than the other?

Here are some straight pics of the dial, I did not have time to pull out all my tools so they're not the best, but hopefully they will be clear enough to state without doubt this is a noob watch:

Thanks kilowattore
These pics are definitely a Noob dial
Therefore we must consider this watch as a Noob M-Series
Interesting discussion which shows we are objective reviewing watches and realize the quality when it exists

THREAD CLOSED

**************************************************************
BE CAREFUL - THE WATCH REVIEWED HERE IS A NOOB M-SERIES NOT A H-FAC


The watch reviewed here by kilowattore was bought in a M2M sale by this member.
Seller said it was a H Fac M-series and kilowattore started the review and the thread considering this watch as a H Fac model

Then we all started the discussion, considering it a H Fac and a little surprised with the improvements showed in this replica in relation to other H Fac 44mm Luminor

Many details type Noob were appearing and some members gave the alarm about a possible mistake.

Warning signs were more and more frequent and finally this watch was actually indentified as a Noob M-sereis

We will keep this thread closed to can see the interesting discussion and identification process.

Kilowattore kindly will edit this thread and will start another correct review of a Noob M-series

Thanks
ALE
