OK fellas, about to pull the trigger on the grey YM. I read the thread twice and I keep seeing that some of you have bought a grey dial with the A2824. But the only clone that TDs are advertising is the A2836. They have the other colors with the A2828, but the rhodium version is the only one that comes with the A2836. Do I just have to ask them?
And there's a discussion about the position of the crown being incorrect on the A2824/2836 version. Incorrect how? Does it stick out too much? Too low, high? What?
How will I be able to tell if I'm getting the 2824 or the 2836?

Am I the only one confused by the fact that some dealers offer only the A2836? Only a few of them also have the A2824 version. Are there actually 3 versions ( A2836, A2824 and SA3135 ) or is it that the TDs don't even know what they're selling?
I read that the A2836 version is supposed to be bad and the A2824 a bit better.
It's also funny that every other dial color version by Noob is available only with 2 options ( A2824, SA3135 )..
Can any Rolex experts chime in? @smoke , @timnic54 ?

I was actually trying to figure out the same thing. From what I've read the new noobs have the 2824. Here's a pic of a buddies that he just ordered but i can't tell if the movement is 2824 or 2836

I can't either, I'm no expert in movements. But I've read to stay away from the A2836, because it's supposed to be worse than the A2824. It's odd that they would use only the A2824 in other dial versions and the rhodium would be an exception to get the A2836 too. It's funny that the majority of dealers advertise only the A2836..

That's been explained over and over again in the thread. Just browse through a little.

Smoke, do you know why the TDs list the noob baselworld grey as a A2836? I want that color but the 2824 version.

Thanks

I gave you two likes, so that might ease the pain :D I think that most of the TDs don't even know what's inside. And I think they use the SA3135 version pics for other listings too.
