Bezel-Dif-06.jpg


When I Look at my QC Pic the bezel from my noob looks better.

Guys, in the comparison with low quality pics of the V3, the bezel is not quite good and not similar to CF.
But in other QC pics... damn, it ooks like the CF! Or at least, is almost good like the CF...

When I made this original comparison, I included the following disclaimer...

"You really won't be able to truly confirm (if Noob is using the CF bezel) until some member of this forum compares them side by side, and in person.

The QC pictures that I have seen so far in this thread are not very high resolution, so the photoshop comparison of the bezels is not very accurate."



All of the Noob V3 QC pictures that I have seen so far are still not nearly as high resolution as the other pictures in the bezel comparison.

I did not use your QC picture, xxBlack because the glare and poor contrast on the bezel was so different than all of the other bezels in the comparison, and the resolution is still quite small by comparison.

To try and illustrate the differences in resolution that I am trying to work with, I have inserted your picture below...

Hello guys,
I received the QC for my Noob Daytona V3 but I have some issues and would appreciate your opinion:

First of all the chrono second hand seems to be not centered. It might be just the angle, but it seems to be the same on two different pics:

Next question is regarding the clasp: what’s your opinion on the gap left from the crown?

And last but not least do you think the dial printing is ok? Especially the R and X of Rolex? Unfortunately the resolution isn’t very high...

Thank you for your help!!

CHRONO SECOND HAND NOT CENTERED!

DiaL printing is not so visible from your pics, but is not the best feature of Noob Daytonas, we well know...

So I think mine and your are not 100% straight. I tried to correct that (I „calibrated“ it with the „cosmograph“
693bbcfe0605231adb67ced1abfad76c.jpg


If I am right the picture is a little bit bad because the cosmograph wouldnt be centered too.

After adjusting my chrono looks like this

It‘s not 100% correct because it‘s a little bit hard on an iPhone, but I‘m pretty sure that’s just a bad angel

Apart from the resolution I would say yours (L) looks pretty good compared to mine (R).....

Such a shame. They have all the materials to make a killer watch, a great movement, better bezelz etc, why so sloppy on the assembly? Seems like at least 50% of the qc pics I see have all kind of misalignment issues. If they just put a little more care into putting them together... It's still a $700 watch!

I asked my TD for higher resolution pics of the dial, so let’s see...

- Yes the Chronograph second hand is not centered. It could be just assembled wrong, or not resetting correctly, which would be bad.

- Yes the gap on the clasp is really not good.

- The printing on the dial is too small to tell at that resolution.

- In addition the dial does not appear to be centered in the case.

Is it from Lucy? It looks like the background that she uses for QC pictures.

After my confusing exchange with PureTime I sent a message to Trusty, and Andrew confirmed it is blue. Also there's a youtube vid uploaded in Chinese that shows the lume in the end (it only had 1 view yet lol). Here's the link:

Every Chinese video I find always has a guy applying/removing a sticker at least 3 times (just why?) and rotating the crown like a madman! :D

Yes, it’s from Lucy! ;)
Usually her QC it top notch, that’s why I’m a little uncertain.
