So guys, I think this is a good thread to ask, I've been reading a lot and I still can't have a sure answer on which one to get, kw or noob? There's obviously noob fans on the forums, but the kw is no slouch either. I'm thinking of getting this 390 and 417. Should I go noob 390 and kw 417?

The watch looks great..the only things i noticed are the pin on the hands shouldnt it be a bit flat and the CG pin too.

I will ask for more pics for the CG and lever up close. Since i cant really tell if this V4 Lever or V3

Cheers

We should be careful with the lever

It is NOT clear that Noob has introduced a correctly angled CG lever

Most likely there is only a transition lever, from very open angle of V3 to a correctly angled lever, this is the lever that we are calling V4

Right or wrong lever, it doesn't matter, look at that CG, it's horribly off, and the lever pin, oh god... Don't know what happened to Noob's famous CG...

Thank you! Can't decide between this one and the Noob 372. Luminor cases never did it for me, but I love the vintage vibe of this one :)

I had the same choice. Decided on 390 as the 372 is big for me at 47mm...

Is there a comparison between the 390 and the 372?

Hello all, just got my QC pics from Sead for the latest noob 390. Can you guys tell me if this is the latest Noob V4? I can't really tell if the CG is still V3 due to the picture angles. Also does the CG pin look ok or should it be more flush. Other than that everything seems ok to me. Any comments will be helpful!

V4 case with v3 lever. Anyway, watch looks good. Accept it.

On the side note, i still can't brain why Noob decided to use back the old lever... like wth, did they fire the manufacturer? lol

Hi guys! Got mine from ken last month and IMHO this one is V4. Correct angle of CG lever and flushed CG pin. [emoji4]

Hi guys, I just recently received my Pam 390 from a TD here. Unfortunately, I did not get any QC pictures but this is suppose to be the latest Noob version.

I snapped a few pictures of it and you can see, I still have a long ways to go taking close up shots.

I am seeking to confirm if this is the latest version and overall general comments on this watch in particular.

This looks like H-Factory 100% to me. Give away is the BEZEL being to flat and the crown guard pin being flush. Im no expert but...the bezel seema to be a give away being H-Fac
