This new type of case looks like the Steeldive Radiomir 42mm homage with added lugs :thumbup: Engravings on the back also suggests Steeldive manufacturer.

This is a Spinnaker Hull case (and the dial too).

Just arrived today. I am quite impressed with these straps. They are dirt cheap but they really look good.

Let us know how it is.
Yes... I'm curious to see if we can put a 6497 inside, the mouvement holder seems wide...let us know
Sorry took me a bit to check but can say with certainty that a 6497 will not fit in this case.

[mention]Ciccio[/mention] Did you received your 42mm case from Alix? It seems to be a good choice for a mini 6154 with enough material on the side to create the crease?

In the Description it says also NH35.
[mention]Ciccio[/mention] can you confirm the dial size of 33.8.
I am puzzled because with a NH35 most of the time you get a 28.5 size and then there is also that notch at 12 that looks like being for the pin of the rehaut ring.
