in respect to hand and dials is that most of the times these parts are sourced from specialists - such as in the case of RD.

Fine by me!

The most important point is not who makes a component, but that it be of the finest quality. Next, one prefers a component that doesn't appear identically on watches from other companies. Additionally, for the sake of artistic purity, one hopes the compon...
