Guypas83 0 Posted October 14, 2015 Looking at a noob v5 submariner and need some advice on the movement. Does anybody think it's worth upgrading to a 3135 clone movement or sticking with the 2836?? Not entirely sure of the difference to be honest so any advice would be appreciated. Also I have seen other submariners by another factory called JF or TF. Anybody know if these are on par or better than the noob version? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lachsersatz 0 Posted October 14, 2015 Don't upgrade to a 3135 clone. The movement is consdidered to be less reliable than an "undecorated" Asian 2824 or Asian 2836 (just search it, there are many posts here). If you are into movements, you should consider to buy a BK Sub (TD here, "base watch" is a Noob V5) with a swiss movement. On the other hand, don't buy a "swiss movement" - other than a Sellita SW200 or SW220 from any other TD. Otherwise, you will most probably end up with an old, fixed ETA movement where parts have been interchanged - or with no ETA-movement at all (again, just search). Regarding JF or TF Subs: I would stick with Noob if I were you... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
