shoot I guess I lot of people got screwd. Got mine a month ago for $278 plus $25 and now find out about this crap.. Time for me to find a new "TD". Tire of this crap, like the "Trusted" dealers didn't know about this issue and yet they just keep sending them out. Spent over 2 grand this month alone on watches. Guess he lost one customer no biggie for him I suppose.

Yes Jay123, I know that because I have just read your thread in RWG.

Unfortunately, it seems that there are already some watches V3 with wrong dial.
At this moment I know about yours and Debellum's:
http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/my-new-111-125473

Maybe, Noob has at this moment two suppliers of dials and one of them is wrong.

PLEASE BUYERS: BE CAREFUL WITH QC PICS AND BEAR IN MIND THIS ISSUE.
I think it would be interesting to start an specific warning thread about that

ALE

WOW! I quess posting QC's pick with no obvious issues does have it's advantages huh?

They probably didn't know about this? I mean how long has this batch been going out and people here and other forums have been accepting QC pics, thinking everything is fine.

This is a factory issue, not a TDs.

Ruddy hell, I've been looking to buy the 111v3 as well. What now? Guess I'll have to ask for QC pics in advance of paying.

Toro said he spoke to the noobfactory maker and they changed suppliers. the old supplier quit the rep business out of fear of the government

Yup>> I got The bad dial too. COmparing mine to the better noob, i do think the 3 on mine looks better... maybe I'm consoling myself and seeing things, but I still think it's a fine watch and few will know the difference. I certainly couldn't catch the bad two in the QC pictures! I'm just going to live with it. Nice catch though guys...

You can be sure. Nobody will be able to see the flaw.
And your watch is still a Super rep. Enjoy it !!!

This is for new buyers only !!

You can ask for them but you will not get it before payment
You should ask dealer for the QCpics and have an alternative watch to change if the pics are not correct.

Lol I regret selling my 111n v3 now. I figured I was going to pickup another one early next year, but now it looks like it won't be a very good version.

But then again, having a super rep OOTB is boring. Bring on the mods!

No. b_r .
No worries
Just to check the QC pics to get the correct watch.
If you don't get the correct one in QC pics, have another one as alternative. Just that !!
The (correct) PAM 111 V3 deserves the job

No no, I knew you were the PAM moderator, I was just poking a little fun at you. I was also giving COLDI a compliment by saying that he is helpful in the PAM section even though he is not the mod here. ;)

Is it just me or does the 6 look wrong too, one is definitely more rounded at the top!

No you are right "2" "3" and "6" are wrong, because is another different old dial as said by Rwolf.
It is noticeable only if you know the flaw.

See below post by stonesix

Just like to add my observations...
not only does the 2 in 12 was wrong, the 3 & 6 both were wrong too.
lets see the 12, 3 & 6

Also, the stick hour hand are thinner in comparison.
