I really like these Erika's straps, bit on the pricey side but very comfortable.

Was going to say, love the strap! the MN straps are great I think and were £6 on Watchgecko, £60 saving on Ericas

Damasko for under £200, bargain.

A discretionary post, by popular demand, and he's a regular!!

Received this morning, after watching Jody's enthusiastic review and having a spare £55.

For the price, it's an unbelievable watch. Feels really solid and with a Seiko movement you know it'll be dependable.

Nice looking watch that, especially for the money!!!

I'm not sure, I think I've seen that design before.

I'm well aware that the design is, er, less than original, but it's still a good looking watch.

Besides which, I don't have £ 15k for a real one and I like having a date.

No worries, I love myself a good homage .
I've lived for 8 years with an Invicta that looked like a Sub. I didn't know at the time, 'till some Sub owner got offended at it.

One thing I live about this thread - none of this rubbish. Offended at a homage that costs way less? Rediculous

Nice looking watch that... They do an automatic seamaster homage for £52 which looks very tempting...

I rather like the blue faced one too. That's a decent-looking watch. What's the story with these?

[Bobberoo99]

From what I've just read on tinternet Chinese "Aquaracer" homage with a Sea-Gul movement, all stainless construction, good quality, but not outstanding, but then it's not expensive in the slightest, seriously considering one right now as I really like the look of it at £52!!!

[CharlesdeGaulle]

I'm tempted too. I'm currently in Poland and I was browsing the Rolex store, which merely confirmed both my reluctance to pay big money for watches and my lack of affection for the design and bling. I'm obviously a proper cheapskate because I like the Chinese tat!

[CharlesdeGaulle]

Just noticed that's a 47mm case which might be too big for me.

Girly wrists??
