SSTEEL 0 Posted March 20, 2013 Anyone else been following Angus's thread over on RG? Biggest Tease Ever - Noob Best Sub-C!! Still needs several flaws correcting, but I'm still on the fence, but after all, it is only a prototype atm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

part_timer 0 Posted March 20, 2013 A submariner is a must for most watch collectors, a decent submariner is a must for us! This is the long waited noob Super Sub-C we have been expecting since pre-CNY. This version has nothing to do with the existing noob sub-c, every parts are made from other factories. The key features are: 1. 1:1 case 2. Superlume like EXP2 with correct color 3. Best quality Rolex bracelet as the EXP2 4. Same bezel mechanism as genuine, will post pics later to illustrate this. 4. Laser etched Rolex crown in the middle of the crystal as per genuine, only visible at a certain angle and light conditions, will post pics later. 5. This is the hardest part, the bezel pearl is made by double some shape sapphire crystal as per genuine, this is the first replica with this feature, the cost of the sapphire pearl is even more expensive than the main crystal. Will post pics too. 6. Rehaut engravings are aligned with dial minute markers 7. AR cyclops And many other minor improvements. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fana05 0 Posted March 20, 2013 Hour markers still have too big a rims, pearl still looks like crap. "BP Factory" did a much better job on theirs aside from faulty bracelets or SEL fitting here and there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mikester1200 0 Posted March 21, 2013 How much will the price on this be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SSTEEL 0 Posted March 21, 2013 More than the BP for sure, probably around $400+ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rolexwatchman 0 Posted March 21, 2013 If it cost more then lets hope its better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
746_heuer 0 Posted March 21, 2013 The bezel insert could have deeper engravings, some other makers already do it. The rest is incredible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Markus-DK 0 Posted March 21, 2013 The hour hand is STILL WRONG! You would think this would be on of the easiest things to get right. How come no one is looking to correct it to the correct size? Don't get it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

solkryssare 109 Posted March 21, 2013 BP is still the better option Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeNnY 29 Posted March 21, 2013 BP is still the better option yeah but some things still can be replaced and best to make combo BP and Noob ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't get it! It's true, but hopefully the word "prototype" in the title of the thread will mean ther are improvements to come. Otherwise, we can always order a hand set from a dealer that has the BP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
