Gents, I'm here in my endless quest for an awesome homage watch, I've stumbled my way here. I really am hoping to find more information on how to buy a great homage watch. I know there are some reps with good quality, but will you point me in the direction of a good quality watch without the brand names on the dial? Any help/direction/criticism would be greatly appreciated. Thank you sirs. I'm mainly obsessed with these 2 watches (sterile, please):

Hy community, today I receved my Pam 111 Homage made by Davidsen. I have to thank him for the good job he made. The communication was very good with him and the watch came 15 day (from HK to switzerland) after I made the final order. Have to say it in one word, the watch is awesome ! Im actually quite new in the Pam Homage world, but after I bought a Getat fiddy homage I wanted a better quality watch. The watch came in plastic bubble protection paper. Watch specification: - Swiss eta 6497 - Sapphire AR - Solid+windowed case back - silver hands - MM dial - Superlumed dial and hands I let you judge by your own. and one wrist shot Thank you for your consideration Alex ps: sorry for the quality of the pics. Made with Iphone 4s

This is a Homage 2533 I've spent quite a while building, the latest re-do was the hands as they started to rust badly. I've been looking a box to present the watch in for ages, I've found a few options in the past but nothing that really did it for me. Then I stumbled on this in a local craft shop and I think it will do the job LOT'S OF PICS..................... River 3646 case set. shaped and softened, crown tube and wire lugs soldered by me. Crown and movement ring aged Binbin hands, sized, blued (many times), and lumed by me (cornholio lume) Cort 616 (NW engraved) cousins plexi front and back. Amazing Daytona dial, painted, resin filled and lumed by me. Strap made from old postal bag by me and fitted with an Elias knife edge brass buckle. Box....aged by me

This has been 8 months in the making, not long by some standards on this forum I know, but the longest for me. I've had some great help along the way, special mentions to Mel, mark_midlands, Elias and 951MAX. The original inspiration came from the movement that I picked up late last year. I know it's not gen but it's a beautiful thing and I couldn't see it mounted in anything else. The case is River's 6154 with a lot of reshaping. Because the stem was 0.9 and I couldn't find a replacement I decided to replace River's crown and tube with one from Athaya (his new bronze 8mm would look amazing here but he doesn't have it in 0.9mm) I drilled out the hole for the tube and wanted to raise the tube away from the case and solder it up like the old Rlx's , after many failed attempts mark stepped in and did an amazing job at soldering for me. Never one to let it be and despite Marks amazing job, I had already ordered the 'correct' solder and decided to add to what Mark had done and sand it back. The dial is one of V's amazing Rol's that I have lightly aged, it is so stunning that I can't bring myself to go nuts with it. The movement is still a little vague, as far as I can make out it's Swiss made and branded Nacar, and all I can find reference to is Turkish railroad pocket watches. I gave it a clean and filled the engraved text with red acrylic, it's the most accurate movement I've owned. Hands are Adrians, I had a spare set of cali hands that I'd stripped off the blue and had been heat treating but I decided to 'borrow' a double pencil minute hand from another set and treat it the same, it's a combination of heat, then egg in a bag, then lumed with the good old stuff AKA cornholio, topped off with a faux CP The strap I made along with Elias's nickel vintage knife edge brass buckle. I wanted it to have some vintage Rol feel the way it is stitched and it is soft as butter. On to the pics, I just re-finished my 6152/1 with an LP dial and new hands so that's crept in to some of the shots too I had some issues with the movement slowing, i think screwing the crown down may have worn away some solder that got on to the thread, I filed down the stem a fraction at a time and it seems to have worked. The crown is not pressing the stem against the movement now and when it's screwed down everything ticks along nicely. Oh and I decided while it was off that I would 'bronze' the crown too.....just becuzzzz here are somenew pics.
