Well.
The outside is improved , sure, but apparently the movement just a cheap Asian movement, not even at least a true Asian clone of a 2824

Sure, $129 is a good deal but with a "next to nothing" movement?? Can we at least later on, maybe put an ETA 2824 in that one?

What did you expect around 100$ its asian automatic movement... nothing else... can be replaced with a miyota 8215 or somewhat....

ANy way at all an ETA 2824 or others alike can be made to fit the Asian Ultimate?

Hands do not fit. BUt as said.. can be replaced with a gen miyota, a "nice workhorse" (Ziggy). Of course you can get the eta and new rep/gen hands....
