It does look like they have improved quite a lot indeed. What are the differences with the ETA clone case? Usually it's the crown height which is something I don't care much about, and with BP sometimes the ETA version has the date window in the wrong position which messes up the cyclops but it doesn't apply here. I would really prefer an ETA clone version as the SA3135 is the absolute worst of the Rolex clones, sadly. And having to buy a VR3135 for a very cost-effective watch kind of defeats the whole purpose to me.
But hey, probably it's as easy as getting a few emails out to Toro, Andrew, Ryan, etc, and see what they reply with. I might do that after Easter.
