New noob Pam292N v2 with correct dial

[Wedd]

Just saw on puretime the new pam292n v2

http://puretime.co/product/pam292-n-v2-11-noob-best-edition-on-black-leather-strap-dial-updated/

The color of the cermaic case looks the same as the the v1, the dail is corrected but it seems the sandwich dial looks like the same depth as before. The crown tube doesn't look like its ceramic?

please share your thoughts.

stems looks ok here is a good picture of a gen:

The crown appears to be too wide and not as tall as the gen. The font on the 1 in 12 is too thick near the top.

Im sure others can advise more and confirm is crown is wrong. Thanks

1 step forward 3 step backwards as always

 

[John71]

Is it a different case in comparison to the v1?

 

[d4m.test]

The '1' appears to be the same issue with H factory 292j series.. are we sure that they are both wrong? Perhaps, there was another version of 292j that factories replicated.

#1 PANERAI logo still low...

#2 wrong font color?

Yep, you are right wolf.

Appears to be yet another factory fail.

the panerai logo spacing is much higher than the previous 292N( you have to compare it with the previous version(the panerai wording was really low on the previous version), this is the only detail the factory corrected. the rest of the watch is the same.

This new version is exactly the same as last version Noob N-series
Noob has just tried to correct the position of PANERAI inscription on dial

This replica is really fantastic, but, unfortunately, and I don't know why, the PANERAI is still low as you can see in below comparison pic. See the green line to notice the wrong position in relation with 4 and 8 stick markers.

Concerning colour it is completely impossible, as always, to see it from the pics. Seemingly it is the same as last version with a grey-greenish colour. OK in my opinion.



Fortunately we still have the J series Noob with the same characteristics and almost perfect. PIG logo seems good enough IMO, because it is few noticeable in almost every light conditions.
IMO the best option of PAM 292 is J series Noob without money considerations, and after that the H maker J-series, a little worse (no ceramic crown) but with a little better PIG and cheaper

I agree ALE. I dont like the pig. I hope to see a ultimate version of this rep (292N) from Noob. I'll take it with pleasure. But the price dont justify the purchase... this flaw is
noticeable

I don't know what people are talking about.. PAM111 v3 is 278 usd? This is 318usd and comes with ceramic case, dial is 1mm off and people hate it.. PAM111Nv3 'the best rep ever' has several movement flaws and no one complains... I love this watch and the 1mm difference ok, it's a rep after all...

OK. This is your point of view, and it is as respectable as other ones. And you are right somehow.

For me a flaw on the dial in a current PAM replica is unacceptable.
Anyway it is not the same 1mm of difference without near references, that 1mm of difference with very close references, like, in this case, the alignment of 4 1nd 8 stick markers.

I don't like either the movement flaws.
I don't like the flaws !!

Many people complain about the movement flaws in 111 and similar. I have even written two long threads about that.

ALE, how about the PAM292 H maker M-series, which is rated as Super Rep?

How would you compare the H maker M-series to Noob J-series?

The H maker M-series (without pig logo) was released before J series with pig logo.
H maker M-series was considered Super replica in that moment (2011). It is an "old" generation of replicas surpassed IMO by the new generation of J-series (although the no perfect pig) mainly by Noob J-series. mybe we should consider a downgrading of H maker M-series following current criteria.
These new replicas form Noob are the best available version of this watch

I have studied the matter and consulted all my data and documentation and links, and I have decide to change a little and update the evaluations of PAM 292 ceramic replicas following the comments made in previous post.

Noob J-series Super rep
H maker M-series and J-series First Class rep bordering Super rep status
H maker K-series First Class rep

[Will78]

Thanks, ALE for the boundless contribution.

I am torn between taking the plunge for H maker M-series OR Noob J-series OR waiting for the next Noob update that "actually corrects their dial issue". Reason being is that I don't really like the PIG.

I want the PAM292 so bad that I already ordered the strap for it. Soon, I will have a strap without a watch.

 

[Norrie]

Same. I don't like the pig either.

Guys, any news on the Noob 292J? I'm dying to get one!

 

[Evora]

Noob is no more available, but some TD have still some (rare) HF 292J or 292M.

Mine is one the way ;-)
