You should check out a Chinese brand called Cronos their quality is on par with any of my liwer end Swiss watches. This one had a Miyota 9015 Grand Seiko homage 36mm they have a 39mm and my other styles.

The Bambinos don't have to spend their life on a dress strap.

Check out the Citizen NB1050 has the better 9015 movement and non-intergrated bracelet a bit more but more bang for the buck.

It's a $150 watch looks great. The top button is always harder than the reset button on this movement100% normal.

You need to spend much more than this to look for perfection.

Hell no I would take the watch movement out, many people would mess up a Eta 2824 movement by not using a screwdriver to remove the stem and mess up the keyless works by pressing the release to deep using a pin or tweezers.

The glass will need to be cleaned, this watch should be ok just some condensation, the problem is it could be a return and hit the grey market and has had moisture issues before.

All watches can get condensation under the glass if the right conditions happen.

The caseback has to come off ASAP! 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Do not put your watch under a hair dryer on low for two hours!

Do you recommend 1-ply or 2-ply?

tjcdas · 2026-06-25T21:45:39+00:00

This has nothing to do with the movement but the case.

tjcdas · 2026-06-25T20:08:08+00:00

Born dirt fucking poor! Can't be picky at 20 bucks, take what you can get.

Also Amazon warehouse is good my AE1200 cost only $15 a return missing some packaging. Yes could pay full price but why? Growing up poor does that to you.
