Hi all,
Complete newbie. First rep, purchase. I have one on order from Sead but I got impatient and ordered this one. I ordered an Omega 45mm PO on Aliexpress but got a Limited Edition 45mm Skyfall instead. But not complaining its a lovely looking watch with a nice 3d dial.
It stated Automatic movement and it seems to be as it was not working when I got it and a 40 sec wind sorted that out.
The sweep movement seems very nice but I am no expert as this is my first automatic.
Bezel is not lined up with the pearl but not majorly noticeable.
The bracelet is loose, so I will need to re size, It feel low quality and sharp. I have worn it for 2 hrs now but long term wear with a re size could start to scrape my skin I feel.
I cannot seem to change the date.
Overall a passable and presentable watch for $58, I paid $23 for an EMS courrier service, but next time I will not bother at that price. I will just take my chances. No point in posting links as It seem the seller is gone. Probably will pop up again.
When I figure out how to post pics I will do so. If anyone is interested.

which one are you looking at, if you don't mind me asking. I've messaged a few sellers to send me photos of panerai. I haven't pulled the trigger on it yet though. I probably would if I haven't bought a few watches within the last few months..
The photos I received looked pretty decent, although it wasn't the same as the stock photo. The actual photos showed two extra buttons, one above and one below the crown, whereas the stock photo did not have those buttons. This was for one that was going for around $40

I'm actually waiting for my PAM425 to get in any day now. I specifically requested the P.3000 movement and one dealer out of the 6 I contacted said they could source it (not listed). $185 shipped. If you go to any other TD, it's a $500+ watch with that A7750 P3.000 decorated movement. We'll see if it pays off, but I'm hopeful!

It just came in and it's absolutely gorgeous! I honestly couldn't be happier with my purchase.

And the strap is different.. Some kind of soft suede that's really different from the rep asso straps I've gotten from our TDs. I love it!

Well, the face seems decent.
Does the crown need to be screwed down?
Movement is hedious, but I wouldn't care.

I spent probably a good three months researching and talking to at least 30+ sellers and in the end, I spent about 130 on an AE 088 since the Noob ones were unavailable. Needless to say it turned out to be crap. So unless you want to risk spending in excess of 300+ on AE, save up your money and pick up a secondhand on the M2M section. You'll pay a little more but get a much higher quality rep.

Yup, it's a screw down crown. It moves like butter. I'm extremely happy with it for 1/3 the price set by TDs here.

I figured as much, but you would think the vendor would at least make some sort of contact with I am sorry, can I substitue for.....?
Noob Sub V5 for 149 usd, too good to be true?

Mine did lol but sometimes they're forced to shut down due to AE shutting them down.

I'd say so... I think this was discussed a few pages back, the pictures are taken from a different seller selling them for 350. Ask for pictures, then buy it... And if it's not what he sent you via pictures fight it.. But, that's ah your own risk.
