But I don't think I can justify the cost. So I'm hoping there's a decent homage out there somewhere. I've seen this one. Any advice?

Looks like ghastly tat to me.

The crown, for example, looks like I made it.

I thought buying a Parnis was scraping the barrel - I didn't know the barrel was deeper

(I have 2 Parnis and they have been great)

So I think that means I scored two PH parrots in ten minutes biggrin

Seriously though, why advertise a watch as "Parnis? No, but close"

Bugger.

Here it is, but he's changed the ad. He's no longer calling it a Parnis Homage

I thought Parnis were really cheap to start with, & that they were an homage of another brand themselves?
Also, the dial is quoted at 30mm, I mean that is titchy!!

That's to odd?
A copy of a copy.
I like Parnis I think they are cheap enough at £50/60.
