haha - I was just expecting some people to call it a fake, im not a huge fan of people sporting knockoffs as the real thing. But its big, heavy, and i like it

Also, its a 44mm, and was actually really cheap. Sub 200, including the upgrades I had done. (Sapphire glass instead of mineral, PVD coating, and had different hands put on)

under 200 to make?
I want one!!

I love customs. Nice piece.

Wow! Any contact info of who made it?

Sub $200?? PAM straps sell for more than that!

What movement is that? Photos are kind of fuzzy, but based on the quality of the Geneva striping I'm guessing it's a Sea-Gull clone of the ETA 6497?

You said the strap was custom made?

Is there a site where I can get one made, or do you know someplace that sells straps similar?

Thanks for the feedback guys.

and the movement is the 6497 Movement

Feel free to pm me also. I have a lot of info as well.

You can pretty much order what ever you want when it comes to these homages. Colors, movements, dials, hands,cases, straps, and lume.
Most are made in China, or Japan, or here, but they cost more.

I have put together a few homages with price tags of a few grand, down to under $100


Watch making is far more addictive then just buying off the shelf too.
