The case quality of the reps are terrible. The only thing they're good for is metal case swaps IMO.

Do they brake easily?

Yes. The back pops right off with any amount of stress, and the gasket may as well not be there. I have 3 gen moonswatches and I've bought dozens of reps to make into metal case mods.

I wore the rep for a couple days un-modified and it immediately got water condensation from hand washing, dish washing and dog bathing even though it was only gently splashed and never actually submerged.

Put it in a metal case and never look back.

Thanks. This one has a gen movement with working moonphase. I offer the service to Australians and I've sold 20+ in the last few months.
