Note some of these watches have mods to them such as recessed insert, shaved cg's, gen crowns and wm pearls. - These are all relatively cheap mods / easy mods. Please pay more attention of the crystal height, case, bezel, dial and so on then the mods.

Movement: a21j
Dial: Very good, noob dial
Date mag: 2.4
Price = $70 - 110
Date mag is to low, 2.4 mag.
Date Font is good, but again the magnification is to low.
Dial is a noob dial, so its very accurate !
Bezel is pretty well cut, teeth are a little to high, but honestly who's really guna notice.
Crystal is pretty low, unlike gen - this is a easy give away and a very hard thing to fix on a noob.
Still... a great watch over all ! I can't say enough about an a21j noob sub !

Movement: Swiss Eta

Date mag: 2.4
Price = $350
Dial is good - noob dial used again (same as watch above)
Another shot of the dial
Date font is good, but mag is off again. - Same case as the noob sub so its to be expected.
crystal height is the same as noob sub, so still lower then gen.
Bezel teeth are higher then gen, same as noob sub post above - same case.
Its a noob sub w/ eta movement and mods by BK... beautiful watch, still some flaws though.
Eurotimez - TT, wrapped gold = (Same case as wm9)
Movement: Swiss Eta
Dial: Very good, noob dial
Date mag: 2.7
Price = $375
Date font is good, date magnification is .1 more the it should be - but still good
Another shot of the date mag.
Crystal height is good - much higher then noob cases.
Another example of crystal being higher
Bezel teeth are cut more centered like gen.
Dial is noob dial, so very good detail to it.
Mbk - M series - Gen bezel assembly (being sold by Eurotimez and wm9)
Movement: Swiss Eta

Movement: Swiss Eta
Dial: Average, unknown dial
Date mag: 2.6
Price = $250 - 300
Date font / mag is good - 2.6 magnification.
Unsatisfactory dial ! - its crap ! - must change out w/ noob dial.
Another shot of crap dial.
Good crystal height, not as good as MBK-m series, but much better then noob subs.
again crystal height - Not a bad watch to mod into a beauty ! but does need mods like new dial and cg's. (as do most other watches anyways)
Hope this helps you get a visual idea of some of the differences between models and why the price varies so much.
Please add your own info also !
I know I didn't add a lot as my time today is limited.
But hopefully some time soon I'll make a nice comparison chart or something.
