No, the case is a 42mm Chinese quartz case comes with 2 buttons, and the stem height just right for this movement. But the buttons location is slightly off, so I had to modify the pin and make a larger cap to get the pin touching the pushers.

It’s a hardened stainless steel case, I have only basic hand tools so it’s very difficult to work on.

Angelus 215 movement, I think it’s the cheapest in-house chronograph movement from Angelus.
