I just got a noob V3 and it's great! At first I would have sworn that there was no LEC but I eventually found it but discovered that the crystal is slightly rotated. Can this be fixed? Probably I just shouldn't worry about it.

sorry CP , I can't help you .

but it makes you wonder why the makers of each part ( case , crystal , etc ) don't use a very thin sticker to indicate the centre of each piece , so that when the final assembly takes place it is easy for things to line up properly

Overall I'm very happy. I think if I ever get my TC back (sent back for movement repair) I will sell it. Here are a few more pics

I wish rolex would use AR. I like the disappearing crystal on other watches.

I think I got lucky. The dwo was the one thing I was worried about and it's dead on. I don't get why people are so hard on this watch. For $350 it's just unbelievable how close it is to the $8500 version.

...really it's that easy? I thought you had to disassemble pretty much the entire watch, remove crystal, align and use a crystal press?

Damn gonna try this on my cheapie SubC!!! Wohooooooo!

I saw the other thread but other than spouting off J12 this and V2 that I didn't see any real information. Can anyone show me what the differences are between this and other v3 or v4? I'm keeping the watch regardless but it would be good for others to know what they are getting since this watch is being sold as the latest Noob version by a TD.
