I belong to these that think that "believability" exist for cheaper reps, as long as they are not complicated.
Asian movements are perfect when you just need hours/minutes/secodes and date.
I'm always thinking to the Franck Muller Curvex (crazy hours) reps, which look great for less than 80 dollars... Sometimes one can be lucky... or well informed, that's what the boards are here for !
Yes, the plate hiding the Asian 21j makes it look different. I would like a little bit less stickers, as the case is engraved already. But stickers can be removed so easily
