Foot note: Most plants in China have there own designers and work up there own prototypes by modifying existing drawings.  A prime example is the Oceanaut and Corvette CR-203 same watch production facility (still do not know who).  Nisimov and Oceanaut did not work up the designs from the ground up.

 

I've got to agree with the Big "e"!
