marrickvilleboy Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 (edited) Hey guys,So I picked up this little thing from a local sales forum the other day. The backcase was almost impossible to open. Had several watchmakers give it a go with the rolex die but with no luck. End up using superglue around the notches to provide additional grip and finally got it opened.I was expecting a POS asian movement inside but take a look yourself - appears to be a Felsa 4002 movement, mimicking the 390 Tudor movement....Has anyone seen something like this before? The case is also marked and engraved decently too....Comments more than welcome - what have I found here?

marrickvilleboy Posted August 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Thanks, Mike, I ran a search too and found that link - helpful.I did some extra digging and some think that it may be from Vietnam - hence why the extensive rotor engraving, etc.Quite convincing from afar but once you're close, you can tell the difference.
