I just noticed that the lume version is gold... not sure if I like it or whether I’ll just switch these cases over. Apparently the black version movement stops every so often so I’m guessing that’s a write off.
Any obvious things to try on a movement which stops?

Yeah you should allowed to be in this thread if you built your own watch, otherwise the only counter argument always ends with 'poorfag'.
