The movement is a Miyota 8215, a non-hacking twenty-one (21) jewel three-hand with date movement with a uni-directional winding system (left rotation) with an accuracy of -20 to +40 seconds per day (depending on the piece you get), and a power reserve of over 40 hours.
The rotor sounds as loud as the ones used on Seiko 5 sport watches. Not too loud, not completely quiet.
The case has an optimal brush finish without imperfections mixed with nicely polished surfaces.
Case diameter: 41mm without crown.
THICKNESS: 12.5 mm
The lug creases are spot on.
It's rated for everyday use water resistant (100 m) and It takes 22mm straps.
The bezel has 90 clicks and has a bit of play.

I have this. With some silicone grease on the case back and crown gaskets, can confirm it's at least waterproof enough to go swimming in a 3ft deep kids pool.

Around 140$ or less. Got mine in a deal for 80.
They are fun although the movement is a bit noisy.

Always wondered if a drop of some movement oil would fix that [mention]Yoda[/mention] would be able to tell us.
