What can you tell me about it? Is it an in-house movement?
What's the reliability of the things?

Are they "cheap" for a reason, or are they genuinely good value for money?

I like (I like also their slightly garish skeletons ), yet part of me thinks that it be like buying a JlC replica... Looks the same, but not quite the real thing nonetheless!
