Is bezel etched? looks not to be. (to preserve its retro look) How is the luminescence, as good as previous models ? Rubber O ring on crown tube? Crown tube screwed into case rather than pressed in? How are screws to remove from the bracelet links? Double headed or one head a "blind" type, i.e. non turning Thanks to all john |

(to preserve its retro look)bezel is not etched and can be clearly seen from the pics on the website,C3 super luminova,brightest lume offered...O-ring screw down crown,at this price range the crown tube would be pressed,not screwed and the bracelet links are double headed,meaning the use of 2 screw drivers is needed. |

Thanks for the response, so you're sure the crown tube is not screwed into the case? not really that much more cost in threading the case and tube. The reason I asked is previous Armida models have used a screwed tube. Are the screw threads well machined? i.e. no stripping I take it you are an A9 owner? |

I previously had an A2 in 2012, was a bit too large. It did have a threaded crown tube. |
