Anyone ever seen THIS rep

In 2006 I was in the steam room of 24 Hour Fitness and spotted this watch on the floor with a broken dispay case crystal. I did the right thing and turned it in to managment but alas, no one claimed it so I kept it. I was told by a dealer it was a fake Tag Kirium and they could not help me. I did find a watchmaker that could and replaced the movement with a $25 21 jewel automatic and new crystal and got it working great. When I was in the GEN market I gave it to my brother in-law who wore it for years with NO issues but dropped it recently and broke the crystal again. The movement still works and all it needs is a new crystal and a good ckean up and I would like to have it working again. I have never seen a Kirium rep in the market and I would have never know WHAT model Tag it was replicating. Any ideas?

Kirium reps were big about 10 years ago. Some of these were made of the mystery metal (or pot metal) variety that could turn your wrist green. Thankfully reps have come a long way since then!

Not sure how restorable this one would be. The crystal and movement can certainly be replaced... but I shudder to think what you'll uncover once she goes under a buffing wheel.
