What is the quality like on these pieces please?

For the price, I think it's a really well-made watch. The case is nicely brushed, but there are no bevels on it and the edges are on the sharp side. That said, it's comfortable on the wrist. The turning action of the crown felt rough at first, but that went away and it feels fine now. The movement doesn't need winding, is accurate, and the second hand sweeps reasonably...at least smoothly enough to not be annoying.

One thing I think is interesting is there's absolutely no play in the bezel. People have different opinions about exactly how a bezel should feel, but whatever your preference, you'll like how solidly built it is.

The things I would change, nicer edges and beveling on the case, lume that's a little less "vintage" would all increase the price of the watch. They say you get what you pay for, but I feel like I got a little more than that.
