I think with this price what we can request more from Noob factory ?
I'm going to clarify again my position:
- I'M A NOOB FACTORY FAN
- THE PAM 111 N-series Noob V3 IS THE BEST CURRENT REPLICA OF PAM111
- FOR THE PRICE OF THIS REPLICA IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO ACHIEVE BETTER RESULTS. CONGRATS NOOB !!!
- I DON'T WANT TO ATTACK THIS REPLICA. I JUST WOULD LIKE TO KNOW DEFINITIVELY WHAT ARE THE REAL IMPROVEMENTS WE CAN EXPECT WHEN WE BUY THIS V3 VERSION. THAT'S ALL !!
That said I would add:
- There is a gap CG-case in the sample of the first pics
- There is no gap in the sample of the second shown pic
- The Swan Neck device of these V3 are EXACTLY the same as previous Noob reps.
In the first replica the tip of the screw doesn't touch the regulator lever
In the second one is the Swan Neck spring which doesn't touch the regulator lever (red arrow) and the screw is at the end too
This is not a problem, as you can see in my threads about SN, but the real thing is that the Swan Neck device is EXACTLY the same in V3 as previous versions. See about that the Noob Swan Neck of the last yaer replicas here:
“SWAN NECK†(Part III) – Statistical Analysis of faults and reliability in replicas
Anyway, I have never understood why Noob doesn't use a long screw like H maker or the gens.
- There are no modifications in the movement
- The V3 version has PRE-V hands, like a lot of previous V-"I-don't-know" replicas
- We assume that V3 has single AR, but it is not specified
- V3 version has N-series deeply engraved caseback, like a lot of previous V-"I-don't-know" replicas.
- The position of the horizontal "A" bar in Panerai is corrected, like in previous versions.
- The CG has beautiful square inner edges, like other previous versions
- V3 has correct CG roller. I didn't know about this issue in previous verions. So i cannot talk about that.
Therefore the only "NEW" improvement would be the ROLLER. But unfortunately I don't know what is the real improvement. Please clarify.
And there is another "improvement" which you are talking about:
"Better QC out from factory"
Really I don't beleve it. And nobody will be able to prove it. But concerning this QC subject I prefer don't talk because we cannot request more of a watch for such a price
SINCERELY, CONGRATS AGAIN NOOB FOR THIS ALMOST PERFECT REPLICA !!! AND MOREOVER, WITH VERY GOOD PRICE !!!
ALE
