PAM 005 H vs. Noob comparsion

[PAMaholic]

Isn't there like a $100 price difference too?

I don't think so. I paid a nearly equal price for the Noob and H version.

Yes from Toro the HF version is 158 USD while the Noob version is around 258 USD I think.

I not sure about the version he is selling that cheap.

It's supposed to be old stock of H factory with the old dial & case-set as Toro was pretty much clearing all Old H factory reps out of their inventory for the price of 158 USD; http://www.torobravo2015.com/index.php?route=product/special&page=2

So for quality-wise, I should aim for 005 v4 from Noob I guess? The one that costs 258 USD.

As [MENTION=35350]ALE7575[/MENTION] Suggests Noob v4 005 is the best value for the money. H factory does great dials ever since but usually is stuck on the case set & rest. Noob has still a great dial but with much better case-set and the rest so I suggest you take the noob.

Final decision could be made first when both watches are compared directly with each other. Hope the Noob arrives next week.

Looks nice! I ordered a Noob 005 last week so getting it soon i guess!

Another question, is the subdial @ 9 working ? Im sorry if that's not the name of it, but the thing on the dial replacing number 9..

Do you imagine nowadays a PAM Super rep with non-working subdial @9 ??

OK I understand

But we are talking about PAM SUPER REPS with Clone movement, completely different from other low grade reps

You should read and learn a little here and in the catalogues and Videos of dealers to enjoy this hobby

Some shots of the so called latest Noob 005. To me the lume is not as good recessed and way to "sausage like" applied compared to the H above. What you think?

Thanks PAMaholic for the pics
Unfortunately, as we have already commented by PM, your watch is a Noob V3 with "old" caseset and old dial.
Therefore, comparison doesn't make sense, it will be not useful

I think we should delete pics to avoid mistakes or indicate in above pics that the watch is an old V3 with old rep sausage dial

Yes that might be best. Please just delete the pics or maybe better the whole thread. Thx
