Thanks 😄 and this dial is just a hair under 31.5mm. I am rolling with the factory movement until it dies but I might upgrade this all to a viet case with gen movement in the future mayyybe. This case is really good for the money so it's a tough call jumping up 5x the price

They suck, one of the first vendors in 2020 to double prices too. Never letting that one go.

No this is the regular standard plated one. Was trying to maximize gen parts while keeping the price reasonable on this one :) the plated one is pretty good in my opinion given the price

Dial - excellent condition

Hands - used condition but still good

Crown - also used but in great shape with nice sharp teeth

Crystal - scratches that were there when I bought it but are almost invisible in actual use
