Breaking News! Noob is bringing the Icon back!

[rolexwatchfan]

Yes! Noob will bring the infamous 127 back to the market. Y incablock! Updated engravings and sunburst brushing. Swan reg screw still short. Sapphire looks like first batch of 2013, too distorted for my liking. Still, over 5 years worth of wait is over. What you guys think? Here's some sneak peek pictures:

Hard to say, source says "soon".

 

[Rx4Time]

"soon". Could be a month, could be a year. LoL. I just think of the v3 LMPO. It's was going to be released "soon" then 6 months later still waiting.

Nature of the game, my friend.

Interesting development although why only the incabloc seems to have been improved?

Already ordered, Noob price about 40% less than ZF since my last price check.
The screw is fixed, claim to have improved movement engraving, and improved lume.

From Puretime I guess? They seem to be the only ones who have it.

Josh has it at $298 with 'limited stock'

If Josh can get a Noob (those who have been in the hobby long enough know that the twins have a preference for H-Fac back in the day, with Puretime promoting Noob, also known as Mr. Creme de la Creme), then it means all dealers can, just hit up your favorite TD for it,

Edit* non-TD name removed.
Anyway received, here are pics. Not kidding about the lume, bright like a torch lol.

disportionate on your wrist

disportionate on your wrist

Whether or not it looks disproportionate to other people is beside the point. PAMs are meant to be worn big. Plus buy watches for yourself, not for others. But if you like to buy watches so that others will compliment how nice it looks on your wrist, it is up to you. Just my two cents.

I hate that the 127 has a brushed case and not a polished one. What a turn off.

 

[Keyblue]

lol it's fine with a 7in wrist I'll survive with a different angle.

Despite how close the accuracy is, its still way to simple to differentiate a rep 6497. Ratchet wheels and the swan neck tip shape is the easiest to spot in all the rep movements

Swan neck screw is not in all the way... easy fix though
