Where does Crownartcustoms get his inserts from?

I've been wondering this for a long time. A majority of the inserts seem aftermarket yet they seem like they are such high quality.

I noticed on his Instagram that the bezel numerals on his 1675 insert are pretty thin compared to a lot of milk/ruby/Vietnam inserts.

He make them, that is why they are so expensive.

I’m thinking he gets them from Vietnam and then customizes them with aging.
Here’s one I just picked up from Bivintage, pretty much identical to the CAC insert on my Tudor 9411…at 1/10th the price.
Wow that insert is perfect. Any one can comment how well would a bivintage insert fit 1675 viet spec bezel ?
also does Bivintage have a whatsapp number or he is responsive on ebay?

Fitting mine took a couple hours, it wouldn’t fit perfectly so i had to bend it with a wone bottle and do some slight sanding on the outer because it was just too thick
Great insights, i guess for the price we cant complain and its worth to take the risk.
