So as an update to this: I've since put together 1 more ali-express watch, and there were a few quality differences in the case/dial/hands/etc. BUT, it is a half-decent looking watch.
But the real update: I put on my DIYWatch Club watch and wore it for a day and realized it was gaining time BAD. I popped it on the timegrapher to find that it was +150spd crystal up, and -80spd crystal down. I also noticed the amplitude is 160 degrees. I emailed DIY Watch Club yesterday, so we'll see what they do about it.
