Any issues with the exchange? Or was it a straightforward swap?

Straight swap. The movements are identical in diameter, the 9015 is actually thinner than the 8N24 and the dial feet, hands are all the same.

Good to know. When I’m through the current financial slump I’ll be looking to pick one of these up.

The 8N24 movement is a fine movement, don't get me wrong. However, the FXD rep has a reputation of the stem coming out. This is what happened to mine after 3 months and so i faced the dilemma, do I just get it fixed or since it's going to a watchmaker, just get a 9015 and swap while it's there. I chose the latter, obviously. No regrets... Love the size and the way the FXD wears (on an Erica Marine Nationale strap).
