Is it me, or are all of the pictures taken at an angle to hide the severely left justified dates?

V2 3135 Sub C

Dates are left justified. Something I need to address when I get it. (Because I ordered this, this is the main reason I couldn't offer you more for your GMT! Bad timing).

Lume is horrendous. But don't really care as ill be replacing the dial.
This is more of a curiosity purchase for me. Just want to find out what this model is all about.
wow three different colors on the lume? hands, markers, and pearl are all different blends/types of lume.
the pearl color looks correct, but the hour markers look like the dark blue that came on my dssd. the hands look, i dont know, in between?

Looks like you might have made a mistake there! But if you need a gen crystal for that new watch, shoot me a pm.
That cant be the same maker. The rehaut on that is wokky in a very bad way compared to the one posted in this thread.
Got it today. Looks better in person then the QC pics. Very nice! I am a happy customer.Here are some of the QC pics.

here are my 2 cents:
I am a rolex fan and already pulled the trigger on the new exp2 white, but at 438 usd I would expect a lot more from this sub, the biggest flaws for me are:
- Date positioned ALOT to the left, guess they are reusing DWO from another model/version
- Lume is horrendous, clearly three different suppliers for dial, bezel and hands
- 750 engraving on the back of the case, (means 18kt gold for those of you who doesn't know)
- Is it me or the pics from puretime shows a dirty, scratched and even rusty (the movement) watch?
about the movement: I prefer reliability over looks, but given that this is one of the main "improvements" of this version, shouldn't be the hairspring blue? If it is not, then it spoils all the work done to the movement
pearl on the other hand looks very good, as does insert, swiss made on dial and crwn postion are not important for me.
for this price range we are almost in TC territory, and with TCs you get a real ETA 2824 movement, so for the moment, this sub c is a no-no for me
I've read somewhere around here that noobfactory is at the moment renewing its rolex range, being the exp2 the first of this new "generation". will see when I get mine, promise to post pictures then

Or, we should all just relax.
What's important is that if the buyer gets enjoyment and value from their watch regardless of gen, rep, price, brand etc, that's all that matters. Not the 0.0001mm misalignment of a rehaut.

just wonder if this a good candidate for mod and probably franken? I love the 3135 clone movement and seems like the case is good as well. just the dial, date wheel and probably the hands?
anyone gonna try? if so I would like to know what parts and where to get them as well.
Thanks
