Hi.

I'm quite new to this watch replica world and just starting to learn about it all. I've just placed an order on this one https://trustytime.io/index.php?main...ducts_id=21466

From what I understand some models like this one use a Miyota 9015 that is modded to look like the genuine 324 movement.
My main concern about this are the jewels.. If i look at the pictures I can clearly see that the jewels are changed for something else that looks more cheap, maybe plastic or glass?
If they have changed the jewels from the real ones that comes with the Miyota 9015 (23 jewels). Why would they do that? also doesnt that mean that the movement would crash in only weeks of use?

Hmmm...

It's a decorated movement, they haven't touched the Miyota - it's just decoration.

You've also posted the same thread 5 times - refresh the page in future to check that it has posted, rather than starting all over again.

Hi.

OK sorry I got some error codes saying I couldn't post so I didn't know it worked. Please remove my posts if that is possible.

OK but it looks like the "Decoration" Jewels are placed where the gears move. So those gears doesn't move or are used then?

If you look at these pictures you can see there are gears under these fake Jewels.

You are overthinking this. The original movement is intact, those are decoration plates.

Ok that makes sense then, so some of the gears are also for decoration? I just want to understand this once and for all to be able to trust these replicas. If what you say is true that the Miyota is intact and that all the important parts use real jewels like it should its all good to me.

If what you say is true


Why the fuck would I lie ?

You've asked the same thing 3 times, and you've had the same response - and somebody posted some easy to understand pics above.

I didn't say you were lying I just didn't understand the whole picture. But now with that great picture above I do understand. Sorry for not being as fast as all of you.
