[W2C] Jacques Marie Mage "Schindler" - 10mm Hexagonal chunky frame (Black/Tortoise)

Hi everyone,
I am on the hunt for a top-tier rep of the Jacques Marie Mage Schindler.
As you can see in the reference photos, this model has a very specific 1940s-inspired hexagonal shape. I am specifically looking for this colorway: polished Black on the outside with a double-laminated Tortoise/Havana interior that exposes the engraved gold
Key details I'm looking for in the rep:
* True 10mm thick acetate block construction.
* Correct gold arrowhead front pins.
* Deep and visible engraving on the exposed wirecore.
Has anyone spotted this exact model from top optical sellers ? Most Yupoos are flooded with Zephirin or Molino models, but the Schindler seems harder to track down. Any Whatsapp, Taobao, Weidian, or direct contact links would be incredibly helpful!
Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I have this very old, low-tier AP Royal Oak Offshore rep (as you can tell by the "Quartz" engraving on the back and the misaligned screws). The crystal is completely shattered, and it's missing the strap.

I know it's a "shitter" and not worth taking to a watchmaker, but I wanted to ask: is there literally anything worth salvaging here, or should I just use it as a practice piece to learn how to disassemble a watch?

Thanks for your input!
