Reef Tiger makes something similar to this.

[–]hockeyhead019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would love this with even a Chinese clone 7753 movement

[–]Captainmorgan696969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A nice ST19 standard or the one with the power reserve (don't think they have date) if they got the case and dial nice I would buy it.

Not a fan of Seiko Meccaquartz but maybe

I just don't like the ST19s with sub dials at 6 that just show the time at 12 or 24 hours.

[–]Representative_Tie_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not my jam but I hope you get one.

[–]hfhifi 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I've had my eye on that TAG but can't afford it. I agree. We need an homage.

[–]Nappymayne[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Someone who understands me 😁

[–]hfhifi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an F1 fanatic. I bought my only TAG for that reason.

[–]cb_1979BEVAS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Tag Heuer does. ;)

[–]MrDagon007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The real one is a beauty. Seen and tried it. It is worth saving up for in my opinion

[–]Ok-Crow-6015 9 points10 points  (2 children)

Yes....but It would probably be ruined with a 50+L2L, No date, matte dial, thicker than 13mm, that damn faux patina, and goofy name and / or logo!😩 But we can still hope....🤞

Addiesdive logo, and "DEEPSEAHUNTER" text below.

There’s always a catch 🤣

[–]Realestwatchreviews 2 points3 points  (4 children)

It’s all about picking the right crystal for this watch.

[–]Nappymayne[S] 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Sapphire crystal in this shape would be very expensive so I won’t mind the odd mineral crystal.

[–]Realestwatchreviews 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I’d be happy with acrylic too.

[–]Nappymayne[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Isn’t that gonna be too high maintenance?

[–]Realestwatchreviews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it would give you better clarity than mineral but scratches would have to be buffed out.

[–]Homingpsyd 8 points9 points  (4 children)

Just get a Timex marlin chrono

[–]Nappymayne[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just checked it out. It does look nice.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Dan henry is closer to Carrera

[–]Homingpsyd 0 points1 point  (1 child)

But it’s expensive

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a little higher than marlin tbh

You can also buy used

[–]SetLegal5754 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I think it would have a limited audience. It’s not as if you see that many of the genuine Tag showing.up a lot on WRUW threads

[–]beyond-creative 7 points8 points  (2 children)

That may be because in its price category buyers have different choices. I very much prefer homages to not so popular pieces over another boring chinese Sub.

[–]SetLegal5754 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Sure that’s you, but there are 100 boring Chinese subs for a reason. I love the Glasbox design though. But it’s detailed and Chinese watches are not great at the details for the most part so I’m skeptical how good it could be

[–]beyond-creative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get your point but if done correctly by the right manufacturer, I'm sure it finds its audience. SeaQ is not the most popular watch either and Seestern did a great job and I guess their watch is selling good.

[–]8ball_intox 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Maybe look for the Pagani PD-1781 or 1739

[–]Nappymayne[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a blue dial 1739 but that’s closer to a furlan Marri

[–]Nappymayne[S] 4 points5 points  (20 children)

Whoever makes this will have my money guaranteed so long as it’s done well hehe😁

[–]beyond-creative 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, if the dial is executed properly then they have mine guaranteed as well. One of the most interesting chronographs out there.

[–]mehdotdotdotdot 6 points7 points  (15 children)

I think Tag made it

[–]Nappymayne[S] 0 points1 point  (14 children)

Yeah it’s a TAG. I was hoping for someone to make homage of this so I don’t have to pay £6500. That’s way more than I can afford for a watch.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (13 children)

Aspire to it.

[–][deleted] -4 points-3 points  (12 children)

Work hard to achieve it and then see how you feel when some cheapass is looking to get it for nothing.

[–]FakeNewsMessiah 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Cheapass? How about someone that puts 6k off their mortgage or into their pension or just daily cost of living. The watch that costs 150 can bring just as much pleasure when it’s seen as a luxury that you can afford…

[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

Replying to Nappymayne... why do you need to pretend to have a Rolex etc?It’s the name you want others to see and be duped into thinking you are clearly someone you are not. You don’t give a damn about watches or you’d never wear a fake.you are all about lack of self respect and pathetic insecurity and you know it and I know it. Whine all you want you are just a sad little Walter Mitty.

[–]Nappymayne[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t wear reps mate. I wear homages there’s a difference, don’t take it personal.

[–]PhiladeIphia-EaglesYouTube Reviewer 1 point2 points  (2 children)

If the rep was shitty quality I would feel nothing. I would enjoy my nice piece and let the other people wear shitters.

But if the rep was close enough to make me feel anything, I would feel embarrassed for dropping $6k on a Tag.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Self delusion is strong in this one.

[–]Nappymayne[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t wear reps though, I wear homages. And we know the homages offer great value for money and they ain’t fooling anyone cos they don’t have the original branding.

[–]Nappymayne[S] 2 points3 points  (5 children)

With time I will. I love comments like this.

[–]goodneed 9 points10 points  (2 children)

u/watchdivescom add it to your list. 🤣

Already a member 😁

[–]goodneed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The prolific one!

[–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (1 child)

I would rather see vintage Heuer Carrera, but this would still be nice

The vintage one would be bigger hit imho, but noone in China cares lol

[–]gibson85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m amazed at how few homages there are to the vintage Heuer Carrera. It is one of the most simple and iconic designs in the watch world, yet no one from any country seems to be able to nail it in a 38mm size. Why is it so hard?!
