Just bought this ol’ Cheapo for $8 without a band. I had a 22mm laying around so I cut it down to fit until the 18mm I ordered cam. Does anyone know anything about this thing? It’s a Automatic and seems to keep decent time but, I don’t know anything about it

Interesting dial color.

That’s what I thought too. Goes kinda nice with the Olive Drab band. So I ordered a 18mm of the same band. Whish the body was black instead of silver but, for $8… I set it two days ago and it doesn’t seem to have gained or lost a minute yet. And I’ve only had to wind it once

Seems odd but, I’ve also never had a Automatic so I guess maybe they are just that efficient

For $8 that’s awesome. I keep looking for those kinds of finds, but haven’t yet.

The timing is pretty good. Usually they are + or - a few seconds a day. The best way to tell is using a timegrapher on it, but just enjoy it and don’t over analyze it. Awesome find!
