Seems Chinese watches are all the rage.

Of course the author doesn't dare mention it's a sterile replica of a beautiful, classic OP ...

Cool article, thanks for sharing  It's good to see someone in the industry who 'gets it' that a nice watch is a nice watch, regardless of who makes it  That said, if he's into Getat, I do wonder if 'the Rolex he usually reaches for' is Chinese, rather than Swiss

Interesting, thanks Mike

In 3 - 2 -1, Esquire will take a heap of 5hit for this from their advertisers who make the real version of the Homages presented.

 

I won't be surprised when that article goes offline.

Thats a gorgeous California dial PAM in the article. Anyone know where to find it?

Jkay,   Getat trusted dealer other RWG but suspended. It would seem since this article over whelmed with orders everything taking months. Wait awhile for things to die down after CNY.

Really need to get myself a Frankenstein watch with a gooseneck movement
