    It’s interesting isn’t it? I’m not an anti quartz dude as a matter of fact I like having a few on hand as I don’t have a watch winder and sometimes you get ready for the day before you are awake and messing about with an auto is mentally taxing if you, or me at least, forget to prepare the night prior. This watch has an interesting story behind it.

    I'm tempted by this one... Even though it got a date window!

    Ps: I understand it is a brand everybody has heard of... But this is just reviving an old model by some enthusiasts

    Yes I know that dilemma they were a couple that really caught my eye some popping out of this thread but you just can’t get everything. I think I’m already close to hitting my max on the year unless i sell a couple things and I really have a hard time doing that

    That's less a revival and more an extremely faint similarity in basic shape.

    It is obviously a question of perspectives and contemporary influence... Call it a modern homage if it suits you better ;)

    The watch barely resembles what it's trying to "revive". More fair to say the watch was "loosely inspired by".

    I was going to jump on the orange Hammerhead last month, but I needed to buy a meteorite for my brother-in-law. Of course, the orange sold out in two minutes, while the meteorite took two weeks...
