I have 1 question for Ale & all....
In my Noob 299K, few parts of the watch have a sharp edge, especially the part that connect to the bracelet (sorry I don't know the name of that part). Is it normal? Hows the gen & is there some fix that we could do?

Sharp edges are what make gens stand apart from reps. The sharp edges you want to get rid of are actually a good thing.

A high end watch is not supposed to hurt when you wear it. :) Edges are supposed to be neat, but not sharp.

It's a common issue on reps: the makers skip some polishing steps to save money. Have someone soften the edges with a small file and it will be alright.

Actually it doesn't hurt me when wearing it, but if you touch it you can feel that it's sharp. So I'm wondering whether the gen is also the same

I noticed the same thing on my 297. If you run your hands along the inside edges of the bracelet, can feel the sharp points, but you don't feel it when your wearing it. The outer edges are soften, they skip doing so on the inner edges? The older bracelet type wasn't like that.
