I have both, I want to love the bracelet, but I tend to like it better on the rubber.
Contrast looks better IMO
and it's much more comfortable....

Hi guys, this is my first post and probably my first purchase. The only question I have is whether Swiss ETA is worth it. This is my first rep and I want it to be perfect. Thanks.
Welcome man!! if money is not a problem go with swiss eta, noob's factory really uses brand new movement, and about reliability, there is nothing better than swiss movement, so yes if you want it to be perfect, and have the money, take a swiss, but if you take a eta clone, it will be fine too, i have one actually, and never had a problem with any of my asian movement, execpt with some 7750...
Don't forget to post QC if you see something wrong, and of course somes pics of the watch when it arrives..
Thanks theskull. I'm not in the position to throw away 150 but if it's significantly better I'm absolutely willing to pay for it. I'm also not sure whether to order from puretime or intime. From the reviews I've read they're both pretty reliable. Do I get the QC pics after I paid or should I ask for them beforehand? Thanks a lot!
Go clone, buy a swiss movement and swap it if you really want it to be fitted with swiss movement. At least you will know that the watch is really fitted with a brand new swiss movement.
I have never go for Swiss movement OOTB from makers and honestly i don't believe that my $150 more will be well spent going for Swiss.
In general i agree with you better go clone, but noob and angus said that all diver's sold swiss will have a brand new swiss movement, i remember he even post pics of all the new movements for the diver over at RG in puretime threads..
After yes if you have a good watchsmith, you can always buy a gen eta yourself and ask him to install it in your diver... it depend on if you just want to receive the watch wear it and that's all or if you don't mind waiting a bit to install a swiss in it.. Like i said, i bought a clone, and if one day the movement dies on me, then i ll buy a gen eta low beat and ask my watchsmith until then the clone is good enough for me

The two pictures sent from fabric will still be low res..
This is 4.1 lume shot from QC pics. Not arrived yet so can't really give any feedback. Looks good though, not sure how long the lume lasts for.

What would you say is the biggest tell on the noob 4.1? I know it's been discussed in almost 38 pages, and many of you will tell me: please go trough the thread. But is there anyone who can easily sum it up? I think there are a lot of people who asks for the same and will be asking. Maybe somebody already did an awesome summary or review of the noob 4.1?
Also another question, you guys with a rep, what do people comment about your watches? Has anyone comment it? Been busted wearing a rep?
And thank you all for making this forum great for a new user as me, I hope I can contribute with something in the future

You. Are you the type of person that can afford and wear an $18K watch?
Other than that, bezel lume is still not 100% accurate, but it's much better than before. Hour hand is also different, but you need to be an inch away to see it.
