Is it just a question of being very "simple" (like the Rolex 3100 series was known to be)? Quality/finishing of materials (more low-grade metals, plastics, etc)? Actual assembly quality control?

For this type of watch, I wouldn't expect anything overly pretty, or serious technical innovation. I'd love to find out that it's basically on par w/a Rolex 3100 series (rather than learn it's little more than a better-regulated version of something like the PRX Powermatic).

There are no low grade metals on certified Swiss chronometer or META movements. Neither Rolex or Tudor movements are much to look at, they are all about the performance.
