Bought several different variations from different sellers to take apart, see how well their built. Will be doing some reviews over the next several weeks.

First to arrive (in 3 days) from Hong Kong is the largest and most expensive at just over $100.00.

Decent looking watch, intial impressions are that the Band could be longer, though it's fine for up to an 8" wrist, though not much tail at that point. Band is stiff, buckle larger than it needs to be, holes a bit small. Lume is poor, only last maybe 10-15 minutes. Keeps decent time, so far in 48 hours it has gained 8 seconds. Could use better anti=reflective coating on the crystal, though not to bad. Huge crystal. Case looks well made, decent polish on bezel. Movement looks good, nicely decorated.

17-jewels hand winding with swan neck micrometer regulator

Engraved with Geneva stripes

48 hour power reserve

Brushed SS case with polished bezel and back.

Exhibition case back

Case diameter 47mm without crown, 54mm w/crown, 57.25mm lug to lug.

Dial 41mm

Height 17mm

Band 26mm

Golden luminous steel hands

Glareproof domed synthetic crystal

Genuine leather strap

3 ATM water resistent

Will get more in-depth after taking it apart.
