The cost of ownership will be less. 2824 movements and parts are reliable and readily available. The downside is 2824 watches are not as franken friendly as 3135 clone movements. Gen parts don’t fit without modifications. If everything about it suits you then you have a potentially lifetime watch, especially if you swap in a genuine ETA movement.

My thoughts too.

Datefont and cyclops looks okay?
Wonder ARF of ZF would be better. Both have A2824

Both ARF and ZF have bold DW. Beside that they look pretty same quality
