Miyota 8205

  • the hands are more accurate (the hour hand is too long in Asian 23J and the seconds hand is more accurate in shape in the Miyota 8205)
  • the crown has better overall shape and size than the Asian 23J
  • the lugs are no perfect but at least rounded as the genuine (the lugs of the Asian 23J are squared). This can be seen when you view the wacth from its side
  • the clasp seems to be more accurate in its general shape
However it is not a super rep.
