How is the movement quality on this one? It looks very good and clean od Pure Time pictures.
My BP is of really bad quality, just look at the rotor finish, the lower edges aren't even filed:

And after 2 months the power reserve went from 40 to only 37 hours. Not that it makes much difference in practical use, but still, it can be an indication of movement quality.
Also when setting time, crown turns quite rough.

i'm really thinking about changing to this from my lmpo

Id like to get either this or the LMPO for my everyday wear in black... I know everyone's taste is different but what d you think of the LMPO for a daily driver vs. this? I'm At university so don't get too rough with my watches in everyday work and play.

the lmpo is a beautiful watch, it's shiny and thus get some attention. but it is really really well made, i suppose this does is as good.

Black bezel/orange numbers in 45mm is released on Puretime. I assume the 42mm will follow in a few days.

I would still get the watch checked before wearing it to swimming.

I used my fingers to tighten down the case back on my Cr 42. Haven't bothered to grease the seals yet but will do that when I get around to regulating the movement; right now its +15 / day which isn't horrible and why I haven't opened it up yet.

Still, despite not waterproofing it, I've showered with it on and dunked it the bath. No leaks whatsoever. I wouldn't dive with it but also wouldn't hesitate to swim AFTER I grease the seals. They are well built watches. Even my SMP bond chrono (remember those?) was perfectly fine in the shower and could survive a dunk.

Good to know this. They aren't grease in factory?
