Somebody post a pic of Daytona with jubilee on it!
Or just search the word "Jubilee" in this Rolex forum.

Make a post in the sales section, not this thread. 1 item per post unless you're supporter.
Mind doing a comparison with your Noob when it arrives? How much did you pay for each?
How do they work? Like the ARF?
Ok this story with puretime now keeps getting stranger by the minute. I ordered June 5th. They come back days later to stay no stock and will get more in 1-2 weeks. Another user somehow gets QC pics after me and now when I emailed puretime asking for update they just said “noob is taking a break and no idea when stock will be back” wtf?
yes I ordered from correct website as I talked with the TD on here who provided the links. I’ve been talking with Elena at puretime via email. At this point I’ll just take a refund. Process got too fishy for my liking. They going to sit on my cash for a month meanwhile Never put an out of stock sign up and even right now still shows u can buy it on the site even tho they just said “no idea when it’s back” we’ll if they don’t know then I surely don’t! Pissed.
Dude calm down, they are not TD for nothing. Do some reading on the forum, this hobby need patience[/
ok so instead of taking a 1 month interest free loan on my payment why not just put on the website “noob is taking a break, order processing unknown at this time” instead of accepting transactions for products they currently have “no idea” about. That’s my point and totally reasonable.

Contrary to common belief watch factories are not the size of Western factories used by companies like GM or Ford.
They are in the main very low key small units usually in a mystery location with no outwardly visual indication of being a factory at all.
These small units are generally only only assembly points and most of the parts arrive from various manufacturer's to be assembled into a watch.
These components will undoubtedly vary in quality from shipment to shipment and the assemblers will use substitute parts if the original spec ones are not available.
This of course causes frustration from dealers down to customers but unfortunately it is something no dealer has any control over and 9 times out of 10 is unaware of the substitution being made
It is not an exact science and to expect it to be will only bring disappointment in most cases
Dealers can only supply what the factories currently have to offer so unless they are holding stock there will in most cases be variation from the original samples
Deliveries from factories are notoriously hit and miss with no real dateline so when a watch is announced and is coming in the next 10 days don't be surprised if in 60 days it's still not released chances are the factory were only testing the water when they said 10 days and production never started until they had enough orders to make it worth while.
I actually got corner SEL gaps on mine that are actually a bit worse than that. It seems to be a common issue with Noob cases now. I'm too impatient to wait for another one and I will probably replace the bracelet with a jubilee. It seems lately Noob QC is just not great.
Maybe just the cheep spring bars. Some members have replaced them with better parts and got good results.
Having reviewed many QC pictures, sadly, I would have to agree.
Shes a TD - i can’t remember which one its under...truetime or trustytime (not to be confused with Andrew who has lost his TD status on Rwi)
Interest free loan...Dude calm down, they are not TD for nothing. Do some reading on the forum, this hobby need patience[/

Give me a break man. I'll bet you're a real fun person to hang out with at parties.

Last week while in Bangkok, I stopped by M&M in MBK plaza and picked up an ARF for $500$.
The watch smith at the shop next door changed the bracelet from my newly acquired ARF to my noob v2.2 for about US$3.
Unfortunately he was unable to do the bezel.
Meanwhile, after returning to Saigon, I had to head to Hoi An for a business trip. Thus I was unable to stop by my local watch smith Minh Quy, before leaving.
Luckily my driver knew the place so he dropped off both of the watches after taking me to the airport.
Word is that when I get back in 3 days they'll have it all sorted out.
Now, if I could just find someone to sort out the dial troubles I'd be all set.
Added some cool Hoi An pics for fun...

Did the guy swap the end links or a simple bracelet swap? A simple swap wouldnt give a good SEL fitment.
