Moded Noob 6497-2 very close to GEN. post your thoughts

[marlin2284]

Just got a couple of Noob 6497-2 movements from wOlf today and took the time to tweak them up a little. Pretty close to gen. (thanks wOlf)

I'm thinking that maybe the balance wheel looks a little small compared to gen. any thoughts on that? I have a bigger one I could swap out. Also found the dagger regulator to be a bit longer than gen. although it is the same thickness as the swan neck, a huge bonus compared to other asian movements. The only thing left beyond that is the fact it does not have ETA stampings on it, looks very close.

My next project is going to be a Noob/Swiss ETA hybrid with incabloc mod. for my ultimate fiddy.

Thanks for looking.....

What tweaks did you do?

Serviced them and incabloc mod....

Here is the movement inside my M111. I changed the high beveled gears with some gears that have a smaller bevel. I have some with even smaller bevels on my swiss movement, but I am saving that for my Fiddy project.

Thanks for looking and for your feedback....

These new clone pam movements are so much better than the old ones. And it's mostly down to the improved CDG on the bridges.
