What do you mean by, aligned hands? I might be in market for a 187 just need to know what to look for in QC.

1st watch QC. note the position of the large chrono hand and the subdial at 3. both are misaligned.





2nd QC. same issue, maybe even same watch.

Had the same problem on my chrono hand @ 3 as well. barely enough to be noticeable, and I dont use my chronos, so I just had my TD send it... couldnt be happier with the watch, welll maybe if they used a 24mm lug instead of a 26mm.. Its like trying to find plus sized clothing (26mm) for watches, all the cool shit is 24mm.

I just saw I waterproof Simona for $150 on Paneristi...took everything in my power to not fire my paypal funds at that person. I just kept reminding myself....(you could almost build a watch for that, you could almost build a watch for that, calm down):thumbsup:

Back to the Noob 187, I don't think you'll be dissapointed. It is everybit of a $400 watch in terms of fit, form, and function. It blows other genuine $400 watches out of the water.

Just FYI...the dial at 3 appears to be a common issue as a few of the owners on here have chimed in. My 187 Noob marker at 3 resets to 30 as it should. But it's almost like the pinion or the gear is loose. I sometimes notice the hand is slightly to the left of true 30 just like in your QC pics. After I slightly tap the watch, it goes back to 30. If this bothers you, this might not be the watch or the movement for you. I have read that even the gen Valjoux movements have similar problems.

Hey...totally agreed, not arguing that point with you. Just wanted to give you a heads up about the dial at 3. be prepared for a future quirk.

I see. However you can see in the pics for comparison most of them are aligned on the subdial at 3. I realize it may occur down the line but the consensus is that you should not be getting it on a brand new watch.

Sorry
Yes, I mean A7753... LOL...
I have already edited my last post

It is better than I expected. The only obvious flaw is the lume of the hands: It is coloured but it should be almost white. It is an impressive and weel built watch. Super replica even with the lume flaw (easily corrected by a modder)

No need of new pics
There are a lot in the links of PAM GUIDE:

gotcha, wonder if the new tool correlates to updated date changer... very sharp looking watch, can't wait to tear the box open :wyliehelp:

it's going to be my daily wear like my wm9 ym was when i had that.
