I ordered a Noob 111 v3 and a Noob 297 O best edition on steel today. These will be my first two ordered direct from China. I know the 111 is highly sought after, and I wanted one on a bracelet.
Smart moves? Or rookie mistakes?

Very nice pieces, perfect first reps. The 111 and the endless variety of straps available for it make it a great choice and the dressed up yet perfect for jeans as well 297 is a well made, timeless piece. Enjoy!

Exactly the same 2 watches that I own. Both are great choices. Not rookie mistakes. You did your homework.

I actually switched the 297, to the 299. I wanted the simpler dial. Something about bracelets that I like. Plus I make straps, so that's never an issue.
Ideally I would like a vintage looking pam on bracelet. Or a destro since I'm lefty. But I don't know if they make either of those.

297 to 299 is your next good move. How bouts a Noob 026 for a destro?

I thought so. Thanks for clarification. What I really would like to find is a Pam50, but lefty, destroy style (my comp wont let me spell it without the Y!)
