Hey guys I'm really close to making this my next purchase.

Just wanted to check on quality of the crown guard, the U shaped piece of metal which the crown sits on. Is this made of plastic or metal? Is it well made?

Would be grateful for some feedback from someone who owns one! [emoji106]

Yes, crown is very well made. Extremely solid and feels secure when locked. No idea what material it's made of personally.

I see that Noob make the latest version of this, has anyone bought it from PF-818? Are there any old versions to avoid?

Also, I don't see many posts of the watch with the leather strap, see link:

Does anyone have this version with the leather strap?

The leather version came out about 2 years after the initial NSD release so that's probably why you haven't seen it much. Everyone who wanted the NSD when noob released it years ago bought it on the rubber bracelet because that's all that was available at the time.

Does the latest version still have the problem with the loose bezel? I've got an earlier version with the loose bezel.

Guys, some help with my QC. It appears the triangle marker at 12 o clock on the bezel is poorly fitted, there seems to be a gap around it. Thoughts? Thanks!

Quite possibly... you might ask for additional close-up pics of the triangle to confirm that it's not a shadow or other light trick. I've seen many weird effects in my QCs over the years that weren't ultimately there in person.
