zufir 0 Posted March 29, 2014 Damn...so the only flaw for Noob's CrPO is the color of the bezel not matching properly the gen Hmm, no...bezel color is ok. Some small flaws are there but nothing serious. I made a gen rep comp @RWI. Looks really good, although I'm going for the silver markers and not orange Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wanlo 0 Posted March 31, 2014 I think I will pull the trigger on the orange bezel. Still not sure if I should go for 45 or 42. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zufir 0 Posted March 31, 2014 I'm in the same boat.. not sure if I should get the 42mm or 45mm... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ImNotFatImFluffy 0 Posted March 31, 2014 I guess whether 42 or 45 is right depends on if case size or thickness matters more, the CrPO is a bit thicker than the 2500 movements are, I don't know the number, but the 42 CrPO felt a little on the small size for me (~8 inch wrist), but not enough to be a bother, I woulda gone for a 45, but the 45s lacked AR or had really poor AR, while the 42 had excellent AR. Again I'm talking the BP version here as I haven't had a NOOB yet, and looks like black bezel on the NOOB has been updated to be more matte, it wouldnt be a surprise to me if it still has fade resistance. I think if you had a 45 PO based on the 2500 gen and were fine with it, the 45 CrPO wouldnt be too much of a stretch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ImNotFatImFluffy 0 Posted April 1, 2014 Well all the NOOB PO offerings seem nice in their own ways, tbh closed caseback would probably be my last reason to go for a liquid Metal (while CrPO has nice matte color to it, liquid metal is shiny, both really nice) , but to each his own.

Cheesemonger 0 Posted April 1, 2014 Go with the noob CrPO and get a closed caseback to swap out. Works like a charm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edguccii 0 Posted April 1, 2014 does the 45 mm wear pretty big on the wrist? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hyjynx 2 Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) does the 45 mm wear pretty big on the wrist? Only if you have less than average wrist size. The bigger concern though is, after wearing it for a period of time, you might start thinking your other watches are too small! At least, that happened to me.

ImNotFatImFluffy 0 Posted April 1, 2014 Not too many people are gonna be bothered enough by open caseback to either be a dealbreaker or swap it out for closed caseback, either way is incorrect to the gen, open doesn't have correct decorations, closed doesn't show movement, at any rate, nobody sees the caseback when the watch is on your wrist.

barbecj 0 Posted April 10, 2014 I've looked around and it's possible I have missed. I'm looking for the Noob version of the Blue/Blue PO and I've only seen it in Black and Orange bezel with black dial. Anyone know of any TD's with the Blue on Blue by Noob? The BP versions look great, don't get me wrong but small things like the placement of the illumination on the bezel at the crown doesn't seem centered and its too raised vs being embedded. Yes picky I know. First post too, thanks for all of the good info. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have the choice between the liquid metal, black/silver, black/orange and orange/orange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ImNotFatImFluffy 0 Posted April 11, 2014 Noob hasn't done blue yet, blue is titanium and not sure how easy/hard it is to get the blue right, but apparently it's liquid Metal like, which I suppose could present issues getting the finish right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nadeemp8 0 Posted November 7, 2016 Picked up a Noob one, below is a pic. It is am amazing watch! My only gripe is that I also purchased a rubber strap, which does not fit! TD is saying it's because strap is BP and watch is a Noob. Any of you guys run into this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TD is saying it's because strap is BP and watch is a Noob. Any of you guys run into this? How dose this related: BP and watch is a Noob.!!...i think it depends on the case size. if it is 45mm, then strap should be 22mm. If it is 42mm, then the strap should be 20mm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
