I asked a TD 2 days ago about availability of a XF PAM127 and he said he could get it so I went ahead and sent payment. This morning I received QC pics and gave it a green light as it looks like a good example. I know XF is listed as closed so not sure what to make of this, possibly some inventory they had that they have been able to get to and get it in the hands of some dealers? Don't know, just happy.

Which TD was this? I’m after exactly that watch.

I ordered mine from Andrew at TrustyTime. This is the 3rd watch I buy from him and have been very happy with all three transactions so far. If the 127 follows the path of the other 2 I should have it in 10-14 days.

Nice, just checked in with him. How were the QC pics? Any sense of lesser standards?

I messaged about 10 TD's yesterday asking about the status of VSF and I got 3 of the TD's said that VSF have many watches available. Specifically the Aqua Terras. All 3 of them are happy to accept orders. 4/10 were willing to sell old models they had in stock. The rest claimed VSF were still closed. I'm unsure where we stand with VSF now!

I simply think like any good businessmen some TDs have a close tie to certain factories and others do not. I contacted a few for my PAM127 and 2 said they could get and all other said nope factory is closed. All I know is I placed order and 2 days later I had QC pics and now just waiting on tracking.

A local dealer here in the city I live says Noob is back and posted some pics on his whatsapp story. I highly doubt it so anyone able to identify those watches? Pics ????

More likely that he has managed to get hold of some old Noob stock I would have thought, but good news if it is true, I'm sure some of the TDs will be able to confirm soon if that is the case.

Which Model would you recommend for the Rolex GMT 126710 Pepsi instead of NOOB?

Clean factory is the new hype. They released a new Pepsi and Batman recently.

VSF must be open. I just got an Omega Seamaster and my brother a 126610.
Sead has loads of stock listed on his page.
