If you, my fellow WIS know where I can find onethat covers all my points, please do let me know.....1) powered by automatic ETA 2824-22) SS spacer (NO plastic)(prefer 'top grade' with Incablock, but not necessary)3) blue hands4) dial & hands (strong) lume by Luminova5) pilot style large crown6) screw-in crown (NO push in)7) sapphire crystal (NO mineral crystal)8) preferring SS solid case-back (if it comes with see-through - not a deal breaker)8) $400 or less (generic, no-name brand OK)9) must be the 'date' version - preferring
