Waipio Jeff 0 Posted May 3, 2014 (edited) I have been out of the PO game for a few years but need to find one for a friend to replace his older 45mm Pumpkin PO. Seems confusing with all the new releases with the clear caseback, liquid metal markings on the back or not, ceramic bezel, new Myota P8000 movements, etc. The usual TD sites have them all and I just want to help him find a great version with a high quality bracelet. ANY help appreciated. Edited May 3, 2014 by waipio11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheOmegaFan 0 Posted May 3, 2014 If 45.5, then go for Noob CrPO or wait for comparison between new Miyota one and Noob. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zufir 0 Posted May 5, 2014 Torobravos has the noob versions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thrasher 135 Posted May 16, 2014 What version is this don't know maker I think looking at TD sites I think it might be a new release with Jap My movement but not sure. Not my QC photos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

barbecj 0 Posted May 16, 2014 I recently got the 45.5 Ceramic/TI/Liquid Metal from Andrew at Trusty Time. Noob and haven't had time to do a complete writeup - I'll will probably just post pics (thats all thats needed). Its a stunning watch though. It's a BP, yes the blue bezel is slightly muted if that makes sense but really a great watch and Andrew made sure everything was perfect. Oh by the way I went with the swiss eta. I'll post back a pic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zufir 0 Posted May 17, 2014 What version is this don't know maker I think looking at TD sites I think it might be a new release with Jap My movement but not sure.Not my QC photos That model has the miyota 8215 movement with the same price as a noob crPO. Depends you prefer high beat or low beat with closer decorated movement Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macdaddy14 0 Posted May 17, 2014 I'm also looking for the same watch. Does anyone have a direct link to the best PO Also I am rather new to this so the terms BP, means? CRPO I'm guessing is ceramic planet ocean. Also why would a noob be better than a factory which had already been producing? Various posts seem to make out that noobs are better in many instances. Sorry for lowering the tone! Haha just want to know it all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vreds 0 Posted May 17, 2014 Also I am rather new to this so the terms BP, means? BP is a factory just like Noob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thrasher 135 Posted May 23, 2014 What version is this don't know maker I think looking at TD sites I think it might be a new release with Jap My movement but not sure. Not my QC photos As it turns out this is new AT maker with Miyota 8215. Pretty much only thing available now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Birdie 0 Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) Sorry for what is probably an obvious question. This watch seems quite popular so do the factories stop making these due to a new version on the horizon. Such as this new Miyota based version? Edited May 26, 2014 by Birdie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunnydale 0 Posted May 29, 2014 If 45.5, then go for Noob CrPO or wait for comparison between new Miyota one and Noob. I think no need to wait, I have not seen a single good pearl on AT makers Miyota ones...but of course if Noob is not available, then you have to rethink.

Wester_Special 0 Posted May 29, 2014 Some dealers told me there still are some models of the Noob CRPO in stock, while others say that is impossible. Very strange if you ask me. I wonder how long i takes for Noob to re stock them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thrasher 135 Posted May 30, 2014 Its more than a bit frustrating. I think in the future I will ask if they can get it and if they cant after they say they can will they issue a full refund. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thrasher 135 Posted May 31, 2014 Still frustrated. The 8215 movement is not that great sometimes they stutter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigcountrykris 0 Posted June 3, 2014 Stay away from that 8215 version, looks good but movement is a turd, you can still get a noob version, there out there somewhere Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norrie 1 Posted June 5, 2014 Noobs have been out of stock for a while now. They're awesome and were snapped up quickly. I'd guess a new batch is 6-8 weeks away if not sooner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
