This is just a for the heck-of-it photo shoot. I have never peaked inside any of my Swiss Made Trias watches. So, I opened up one of my favorite models to see what's inside. I also dropped in a cameo of OldeCrow's photo of the inside of an Invicta Scuba on the last photo for comparison.

There has been some debate as to what "brass" and "nickel" signify.

All I can add is that I have NEVER seen a brass colored 2824 in a Swiss made watch from a reputable Swiss company.
