NOOB V3 116500LN announced! Whats new?

[Digital.]

Thanks for the helpful reply.

I actually did this experiment two days ago and it lost ~3-4 minutes after 24 hours. This is extremely disheartening since i spent almost $700 from InTime on this and it cannot perform to the same accuracy as my $100 Seiko.

I have contacted Ryan about this but he has not replied yet. The QC pics seemed good and showed the calibration was within range. I'd hate to bring this in locally to pay an additional ~$200 to have it serviced.

The amplitude is obviously fine (assuming that's actually the watch you've been sent). 3-4 minutes a day is obviously not fine.

​​​​​See what Ryan has to say, although posting it back to China isn't really a good idea anyway unfortunately.

The only realistic option is to have someone to look at it and assess the problem.

I wouldn't feel too bad about that. The watch is essentially running dry from the factory and the parts will suffer from a lot of wear without the correct lubrication, so I'd suggest it was serviced anyway.

Finding replacements for worn parts (which could have been avoided) in the future is going to be a bigger headache. These movements are excellent but we have to look after them.

Do you have advice on which type of watch service shops to look for? I'd be hesitant to bring in a replica Rolex to the more reputable shops, and at the same time I don't want to bring such a complicated piece to someone who doesn't know what they're doing.

You have to look for their websites in their posts or email and contact them.

I can't mate, I obtained the number after giving him my word to not give it to anyone.

Mraccountant is your noob bezel bevelled around the engravings ? Mines out for delivery right now ! hoping it's good enough out of the box.

 

[mraccountant]

Yes it’s good but i prefer the CF bezel because in the light it shines more and the numbers are brighter

We have a section here with watchmakers that can repair your watch.

Where are you based?

Have you tried calling the free-toll support ? It's in your damn rights to be in within COSC for fark sake.

Lmao

Just got mine in , Watch is awesome overall. Bezel the best yet. I see what some meant about the daytona text it is a step back a bit where its too light now , Bracelet and clasp I feel is junk though maybe just needs oiled but no comparison to the ARF one perhaps il swap them over, Sel is great now looks like they improved them all on that.

the word Daytona here looks fantastic ... did you use filters for the photo? did you correct the colors? Here it would seem the right color ;-)

 

[ManuelCalavera]

anyone know if/when the gray dial (white gold) version will come out? I can't find it on intime...

 

[JDM180]

Pictures please!

It's in bits at the minute to swap the bracelet or at least the clasp , will stick a pic up when I'm back home and finish swapping them over.

Hi all,

Can anyone confirm if ARF bracelet fits into NOOB v3 nicely without any additional modifications?

Thanks

Anyone got an answer to this ?
