DW replied to a message asking about that and his reply was that his case could take a 3133. Common/general knowledge has led me to believe that it doesn't. I purchased a sturmanskie for this purpose. Haven't fudged with it as I like the Russian pilot watch as it is and the 7734 movement works well and IS the intended movement. E
Looking good Sgt! I still have to finish the builds myself. Bring that baby out into the wild and take some pictures in the elements. . Glad it all worked out. E
The MC has officially been on
My wrist for 8 days. Water resistance proven to swim in pool and at the ocean. Haven't gone deep in the water, but I'll test that later. E
The other thing to consider in all these cases is the intended movement for the cases. The DW cases for 7750 movements tend to have the deeper case back. I have had the v72 and 7750 ones. For the money DW. You can modify it a bit and be happy. Just my two cents.
What movements are these cases in the comparison designed or intended for?
I know I'm trying different straps. Waiting on an orange aged leather NATO to see. I like the grey strap the best and the Oyster. The Bund is not bad either, but I like the Bund better on the Daytona.

Very nice pictures. I love the case polish on this one. The dial is nice for sure. I like to see those pushers as well. I have a set just like those to install on my case.
Thanks for posting.

I wonder if that insert is from the same batch that Startime is selling as gen inserts. I bought one to test from them and it is very much the same insert you show here and a pain to fit around the crystal. Have you tried a used gen to fit?
