And I got it for damn cheap, too. (Partner got it as a gag gift of sorts, but it tells the time just fine and it doesn't look half bad, so I'm happy to wear it)

I honestly thing people would wear this widely if it had a good movement in it. Quartz or mechanical like some ETA highly servicable movement or a good HAQ movement that keeps stellar time. If you wanna sell the watch I'll play with it to add in a good movement. For funsies so I can repost it here.

    So this one is technically a knockoff of this D1 Milano watch that has a Time Module/Hattori VJ21 quartz movement in it. I expect it's quite popular among the fashionable crowd, and I'm pretty sure the original does actually keep quite good time.

    Yours is better. No name on the dial. But I definitely saved that watch. It's a neat piece. I like watches and dislike AP as a whole basically but interesting piece. Seems to crude and very unique at the same time. Thanks for sharing.
