  1. Parnis makes good inexpensive homage watches. The watch you've linked to is a Rolex Yachtmaster copy. I like to think of these watches as good beaters, like a Seiko or Invicta watch- great for wearing around and if you tear it up, it's no big deal. To get the watch going, you need to unscrew the winding crown, wind it 30-40 times and pull it out to the second stop and set the date- keep it one day back from todays date and then pull it out to the third stop and wind the watch till the date turns and set it to the correct time. Then you push the crown back in and screw it down so it will be water resistant. Here's a Parnis- also a YM homage in rose gold with the Miyota movement.

  2. I thought Parnis sold unbranded watches. I've bought a few, but I always get the watches with Miyota movements- looks like what you're buying is a Asian 21j movement. Nevertheless, the biggest deal is matching up the date window correctly- looks like it's to the right- not in the Rolex left position. here's a Parnis watch with an unbranded dial https://www.ebay.com/itm/parnis-40MM-blue-dial-automatic-watch-mens-rubber-strap-military-Sapphire/264497526118?hash=item3d9547f566:g:bzMAAOSwEMxdonSm At this cheap price, you might as well buy another whole watch- I don't know where you'd ever find just a dial. Rafflesdials has the open casebacks- don't know if it'll fit your case. Might have to keep googling- maybe you'll find something.

  3. On HR the crown position seems to be spot on.
