You know what I love about the watch you have is the movement is high grade and COSC.  Selitta can do a great movement if paid enough, but they can not match the quality for the price of a pure ETA.

The thing that I believe is the most significant feature of your watch is the carborundum crystal.  That is an an expensive chunk of sapphire, and hard to produce in a commercial quality.  If it was not as thick as it is, I would tell you to never wear it, if you did crack it you and no one else would ever be able to afford to replace it.

The router work on the dial is nice, but I still stand by the movement and crystal are the features that sell it.
