In Response To: Homage arrived ()

: I know some of you do not like homage watches. That's okay, I
: happen to like them so long as they are not a ripoff of the
: original. This one is a Crepas Cayman 3000. It's a Spanish
: brand, very nice quality fit/finish. It uses a Top-Grade ETA
: 2824-2. This one is a beast at 44.5mm bezel, 44.5mm case and
: 16.9mm thick (although it's not quite as big as my Armida A1).
: It's a bit larger than its inspiration. The Armida looks like a
: brute and this one looks more sophisticated - polished case,
: faceted chrome hands and brush/polished BOR bracelet. The prop
: logo is under saphire and is lumed which is cool but useless.
: More useless is the 3000m depth rating. Useless, in this
: instance is still cool. Also has a heavy nylon strap, a Jacobs
: leather strap and an additional standard dive clasp to
: compliment the butterfly clasp installed, a couple of
: screwdrivers and a nice wooden box.
: The daylight was gone by the time I got it, so I had to make due
: with electric light. And I didn't think to wipe off the
: dust/prints for the pics.
