So Rolex is planning to make the whole bezel platinum ? What you mean by bezel insert?

No the whole bezel is solid plat on the 116622 blue and the rhodium read it all the time .not sure about the rolistiam though..shame no members own the gen then we could weight the noob vs gen

Looks pretty good to me- This is the Nob A3135

OK thanks for that- Did not know that- WHAT is the difference between "A" and "SA"

It matters because a 3135 is a decorated eta. Sa 3135 is a clone now do you get me?

Sorry- Been away from the rep world for a LONG time- just re-acquainting myself with the verbiage- Cheers!

Boy stuff got a LOT better in the last 7 years since I left!

Hey guys can anyone tell me if this noobYM is the 2824 or 2836 movement ? Have a buddy that bought this not really knowing much.

Looks like the SEL's are ok not perfect
Thanks

Which version do I have? I picked it up in M2M awhile back. I personally love the watch but want to know if the noob version is that much better. I don't think I have the noob. Maybe JF? Everything lines up perfectly. Has LEC. Bezel clicks over nicely with no play. Should I bother getting the noob?

Hope you didnt pay alot for that...the SEL gap is huge too. Definitely not noob.

I had SEL concerns on QC but experienced forum members said it's fine. Fairly new to the rolex game but upon receiving the watch the braclet feels "wiggly" and not stiff by the sell area. Almost loose. Is there anything I can do to tighten this

try bending your springbars a bit to put more tension on the link or get some thicker springbars.
