i sent you a PM about this marper
:)
hope it helps!

Why send a PM? If you've got observations, share them so we all can learn.

DSN's recent version is supposedly an updated version of the one he offered several years ago. I purchased the old one for parts and I can share that
-the mid-case, CG, and crown are quite good.
The dial text seems accurate, but the color is wrong.
Number shape is very good.
Hands are excellent!
Lume is strong
Bezel and crystal struggle

again, this applies to his old version from several years ago.

if I were you I would buy a case from Silix and the dial/hands from DSN. add a nice movement and you've got a passable fiddy for about $220

The new Fiddy has CG fitment issues (glaring gaps between the case and the CG). The crystal distortion though looks nice (very little from the sample pics).

I just got mine from DSN last week. I think it is very nice. The strap is trash. The crystal is on par with early noobs. Movement has nice bridges with good engraving. Overall I'd give it a B+/A-. I'll try to post some pics tomarrow. I hope this helps.

I suspect the CG fitment issue is due to a loose screw.
