who got the watch could you kindly show us more pictures? thank you ;-)
Yessss
We need more photos including side profiles.
Also how is the bracelet? If anyone has gen or PPF can you compare bracelet to that?

Hi for those who got it already, do the white lume markers look very obviously off and too stark white compared to the gen off white greenish colour ? Thanks
Bracelet is of course nowhere near gen, I've commented on this few pages back. Edge is sharper than PPF's, but still not bad. Typical what you will expect from high-end rep.
Lume is plain white like A4 printing paper. But obviously off? Don't think so, I myself have never thought of this part at least. It's one of the least things you will notice compare to other tells such as the sunken moon disk.

By way of an update, no news here from Puretime. Haven’t bothered to chase them but wanted to let you guys know I haven’t forgotten about this thread

Same here. Got a message from PT yesterday stating that the factories are still closed and they haven't managed to source the watch yet. So, we just need to be patient ....

Probably not opening again doesn't sound encouraging.

Yes got this I hope they can still source this watch since Green Marker is going to be closing permanently.

I’m a bit confused about who actually makes this watch. Trusty shows green maker but pure time and Jtime say Geen Maker. I suppose it could be a typo...
Terrible news none the less.

Well needless to say, anyone wants to M2M sale one of these I’m in the market ????
Probably will have to cancel my order with J time

I wonder how many orders placed for the 5712 and pending now! I am sure it is green factory. I would assume TDs will refund or alternatively offer a substitute watch from available factories.
Also now that noob will cease to exist along with their super clone 4130 movement. It would be a huge step back for the rep business .
It will be a long hiatus i guess .

surely someone high up in the chain at the these factories will just open up a new factory name if they can source all the parts.there's too much money to be made.
If noob stay closed I just hope vsf will get the clone 4130 movement and start making Daytona's.

Most likely but can take some time (a year or more) to purchase new equipment and hire people again and start the process again. If vsf takes over it’ll be a little faster but there are a lot of unknowns. What we DO know is there won’t be any new NOOB Daytona’s for a while. I was lucky enough to buy 3 last month (final one should arrive today) but other than that it’s over for a long time.
