Bucketmouth 0 Posted December 14, 2012 I'm feverishly looking for a thread on "mods" and "noob" is. ANSI don't think it's a reference to newbie? Any links would be greatly appreciated.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted December 14, 2012 Why you need mods? Read for a week or two, you'll know mucho more. 42mm is not large, it's just average size watches. 48mm is large. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trksh-bzr 3 Posted December 14, 2012 you're right. there are a line of reps we call oob factory wathes. reason being that there were some nice cheap submariner reps from thailand, originally that were referred to as noob mariners. later a factory in china started making a similar sub rep, and the name came from ther, to call a factory the Noob factory. noone actually knows if all the watches called noob factory are indeed all from the same factiry, but very often these watches are of really high quality.
