Ha! Go for it. It's a fun case. The rep cases are fantasy and a bit cheaper. Not sure if they have sapphire crystals like Rivers. If rep dials aren't your thing, you can just get a modified custom dial and find a sterile caseback.

They have 45mm Rad cases too. I prefer the modern carbon Sub cases, but they're all fun builds.

seems it is not too difficult to get hold of a CF block for machining. this one is 1.5" x 1.5" x 5" block.
