my first rep UN Marine Chronometer blue dial, RG, rubber strap

seems quite large (the dial is 40mm; case 44 mm) large difference with another watch with case 44 mm but dial 35 mm.

the spring bars are difficult to place because the rubber band at that place is too thick. So they're not sitting free and not realy " spring " .

The blue sticker on the crown has dried up and i cant remove it completely. I do not want to use a metal object , because that would damage the gilding.

Accuracy + 25 s / day (tested over 4 days) (not worn, standing on the desk)

The movement is nicely decorated, but a giveaway is that the regulator has no arrow but the "+ -" engraving. This occurs in all cheap movements.

The watch exudes quality. Despite the small negatives, I am satisfied with my purchase.

Blue sticker on the crown?

If it's what I think you're talking about it's not a sticker and it can be easily removed with some rubbing alcohol and a q-tip

@ WingNut : its the UN 1301001 from Reg.

@ Crappymonkey : yes, like plastic that comes off in pieces. I try what you suggest.
