Markrfc 3 Posted January 3, 2014 Thinking about purchasing the below watch from amazon any thought or experience with this brand? http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0058SRGSI/ref=gno_cart_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J!m 289 Posted January 3, 2014 Damn! 495 GBP? That is serious coin for a homage. I think there are other homage brands that will be a bit more bank account friendly. Steinhart comes to mind... Parnis too... Or have one of the many watchmakers around these parts put something together for you. I did a non-marked sub case with a clear explorer dial and Ploprof hands. swiss Eta movement inside with no date. It is less than 495 USD to build one of those up... With a new Eta movement (which is the bulk of the cost) Shop around before you spend that money, unless you HAVE to have that brand for some reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lars_St 0 Posted January 3, 2014 Like J!M mentioned. Have a look at the Steinhart Ocean One series. Also an Homage to the Sub, and Steinharts have been proven to be very nice watches. New batch available at the end of January. They go for 350 euros so you also save some gold Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShovelnTC 31 Posted January 3, 2014 Nice watch with better than usual specs for this type of boutique watch but certainly not cheap. Are you going to use it for deep diving as there's a few nice similar watches rated at 200-300m for a lot less. For example the Steinhart ocean 1 or any of their divers at around 300 euros. http://www.steinhartwatches.de/en/OCEAN-1-BLACK,14.html# Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
