I ordered one from AliExpress as soon as I saw the review Jody (Just One More Watch) did on youtube. I do like the blue, but went with the panda dial and added a leather strap to it.

I think adding a Miyota 9015 would make this watch a much better deal. Adding a better movement would make it reasonable to charge $399.

It's a press-on case back. You just need a flat-tipped case back removal tool, its a very thin, flat tipped tool used to pry off the case back.

They’re such a great value. I can overlook the whole homage business model. For us plebes, we can pretend we have a Submariner or Capt Willard. If they tell time with reasonable accuracy and have a decent build quality, I that’s a nice watch. 🤷‍♂
