WatchGeek5711 172 Posted February 13, 2022 As stated above these are the names of rep factorys. we use CF for Clean Factory as example, this way everyone knows what they are buying as there are major differences in the Reps qualities from different factorys e.g. the Height of the Daytona. for the longest time noob factory (NF or just Noob) made it to gen thickness of approx. 12,4mm / 12,5mm whilest othrers was 13-15mm thick, so everyone knew if they bought a NF the watch would be thin like then gen.

TonyStarkIM 42 Posted February 19, 2022 I did go through but didn't see anything specific for this, I saw a bunch of other useful sticky's maybe I missed it and will have another look. Thanks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fatarms 7,777 Posted February 19, 2022 Interesting to see P4GTR as a Watchsmith at Reddit... I thought he was just straps before he got canned? Danny must've gotten himself a Finnish repair cert. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
