How many of your watches have a see-through caseback?
Is it a factor you look for in a watch?
Does it influence the pleasure of ownership?
Do you ever find yourself wanting to convert a solid back?
I’m just wondering how others feel
sinc I have plenty of each
And some are plain while others are decorated.

Sport watches I love solid. Dress watches I prefer see through caseback.
It really depends on the watch, the level of finishing, etc. I vote 50-50 😊. All the very best, Alex
I mostly favor see-through case back if the movement is nicely made and decorated.
However, for some re-edition models, I do not mind a solid caseback because it is much more closer to the original vintage models.

I’ve wanted a display back watch for years. And then whenever I get another watch it ends up having a solid case back.
Strictly speaking the first is a Tudor, but still ...
I thought it qualified Cazalea ...
Most of my modern Seiko's have a see through case back
Though, I think some of the solid ones can as interesting. On my wish list is a watch with a solid case back with a gold medallion on it. I've no idea why other than I like the aesthetics of it & only the wearer knows. Cheers JML
