Quite nice flat 4 insert, thick crown guards and lugs so a lot of metal to work on
Plus it's supposed to take a 3135 movement and 27.5mm dial ... we'll see Image

More mini-fiddies! Moar!

This one seems better milled at the side, seems like it has a better "U" shape. But I could be wrong.

In my opinion - No.
Cheapest way is to buy a rep and use the case.
Expensive and best way is to buy NW.
