It is a Miyota, but the screw lugs aren't functional. The watch uses standard lug pins. The screws aren't screws. They are just for show. Trias does that on a number of models including the Unitas 6498 model you like and can't get. The Backgammon however, uses real lug screws.

It doesn't feel as heavy a guage as the Backgammon style watch. Its a nice watch, but it is not in the same league as some of the better Swiss made Trias models. But then, it doesn't cost $200 either. It is a great watch for $99 with free shipping.
