Apologies, not my pic. Waiting on mine to arrive. It seems to be a very accurate rep with the exception of the movement.

Why not BP as per above link? @Omagad

Because JF's only flaw is crown's being fat which you'll never see unless you have a ruler with you (this has already been discussed here).

The finish of markers/hands, you'll need a loupe and the bracelet thing you won't notice unless you wear it yourself (and who gives away his Rolex to anyone?)

BP's, on the other hand, have naked-eye-visible flaws, such as the rehaut problem, the lume, the bezel and even the movement if you're a bit careful (but I can give you that one).

So, from an owner perspective, I'm pretty sure BP's superior to JF's because it feels more "gen like" and have a much better clasp. On the other hand, to another dude's eye, JF's look superior to BP's, even tho BP's an excellent rep.

Of course, I'm totally open to discuss that since, again, this list is about consensus and not my own opinion. I'll add BP's to "probably" until we figure it out.

Just my observation, but isn't BP's bezel the closest to gen-like? I've always found one of the biggest visible flaws with JF's Yacht-Master is the insert doesnt look anything like gen, because the numbers and notches are not "crisp" or refined. The Noob bezel is better imo, but still not that close when you compare with gen.

BP's as far as I can tell seems to be the closest as the numbers and edges are all sharp and crisp... Wondering if anyone else has thoughts on this.. Pics below:

Sorry to be that 'n00b' but I'm on the verge of pulling the trigger on a JF 114300 Grape and want to know what the "bracelet thing" your talking about is and what "feels more gen like" means? Are you talking about the finish of the bracelet?

I see the pam111 Noob v3 on the list, but I only find a v4 on the TD market, isn't it an improvement or did it mess something up?
