Change the strap and install a solid caseback and BAM! The bargain rep is now a beauty with class. Enjoy

Where did you get the solid caseback?

That looks like a KW 372, not a Noob.

Take a good look at the crownguard REG. T.M. spacing and most notably, the blue screws as well as the CAL P.3000 and SWISS MADE placement.

How does it compare to the noob? am I best asking for a noob over kW in your opinion? I'm looking to get a new strap anyway and not worried about the back. More concerned about the front case, movement and face accuracy tbh.

When I say movement. I don't mean to look at I mean which is best for ease of service and repair.

The KW is a well-made watch; I own the KW 605, which is basically a 372 with an anthracite satiné soleil dial.

The Noob excels in the way it looks on the wrist. I have a gen 372; the Noob looks very close, save for a slight difference in the text and hour maker color. This could also be due to a difference in series; The Noob is based on an N-series 372 while my gen is an R series.

As far as the movement is concerned, both KW and Noob variants sport an A6497 which has a power reserve of around 58 hours (as tested with my Noob 372 and KW 605). It is a rock solid movement, easy to service and source parts for.

The power reserve on my 372 is indeed great. Love this watch, definitely one of my favourites and 3 months ago I hated PAMs!

I'm either taking the movement deco off, getting a solid caseback or fitting one of the swan neck decorated 6497s though I think as the stick on deco plates do look a bit naff even without the alignment issue on the "Swiss made".

What's the main differences between these two series?

Thanks for the info you have been a great help. I asked if it was s kW and they insisted it was noob but after looking myself I'm convinced it's a KW as well. It's a shame really as I had heard such good things about the noob and had my heart set on it but what was I to do when they was insisting it's noob?

 

[apexitune]

this from kw?

 

[Alfakingmuch]

I think so but I ordered a noob.
