I doubt that because I just realized that my TD website listed as the 2836, here is the qc

as I mention above the rehaut is so strange, the crystal height is imbalance as well, or maybe the imbalance crystal make the rehaut look curve illusion on the bottom of the ring ?

Smoke, can you help identify this bad boy? My buddy just had it arrive, it looks pretty good SEL's kinda suck. They are loose and already driving him nut. From what I've read here I think it's a 2824 but can you please confirm.

Thanks man

Pull the crown and turn it clockwise and see what way the hands turn.the sa and 2824 case is near identical.the cg are the slighty wider on the 2824 and not noticable without each case next to each other

If the crown is turned clockwise the hands move anti clockwise.

Just got my QC photos for a blue dial SA based noob yatchy. I already approved it knowing SELs aren't the best. What can be done to improve the SEL fitment? Did Noob use 1.8mm springbars for these if so should I replace them with 2.0mm?

@smoke Do you think replacing spring bars with a pair of 2.0mm would make a difference? Thanks a lot already for your input on this!

I could fix that vertical sel play using our plastic or paper sel mod.using bigger spring bars won't help.the noob ym comes with 1.8mm bars.bigger bars like the 2mm bars of the sub c won't fit through the bracelet spring bar holes.this is use is soo Comon on noob reps it's scary.I'm not sure why the sel moves up and down perhaps the way the bracelet spring bar holes are drilled too big.but use mine and zockker sel mod to tighten the sel.or get a new bracelet

Use this guide to our mod you can use paper as its faster to do takes 10 seconds .but obviously we can use plastic aswell

Does anyone own the mid size version of the YM116622 with rolesium dial or have any first hand experience of seeing one. I have one on order for my wife and whilst I'm not expecting it to be in the same league as the full size noob I am curious as to what sort of quality it will be. It was relatively inexpensive so not worried just interested to know what to expect. I believe the only decent quality mid size rep is made by BP factory which is where mine is being supplied from

I just saw this YM Grey Dial (w Blue accents) in person for the first time (Gen) and damn, the dial color is GORGEOUS!!!!
I really love the grey a lot, the blue sets it off sooo nicely, and the shade of blue is literally just perfect!
Absolutely incredible, gorgeous watch, without a doubt!!

(It's just too small a case and not thick enough for me either!) :(
