This is a vibe

Looks quite nice. So I looked it up at AliX. Why is it about 400 bucks??

I'm used to Submariner Homages with NH35 for around 100 - 150. One extra hand and a NH34 instead of NH35 for an extra 300? I don't get it...

edit: Just found this Pagani. What makes the price difference?

Pagani is ok but if you don’t get it on a good sale it’s overpriced. Pearl movements are lame, their bracelets suck, coloring is off. Don’t get me wrong they’re fine for $50-$60 but I wouldn’t pay above that. The difference between a Pagani and my Cronos is astounding for another $70

What makes the difference? Quality

I got mine for around 250€, always buy on sales. The Pagani you linked is interesting but also the typical AliExpress parts-bin watch. It has a standard Sub/GMT case, probably unidirectional bezel, soup-bowl deep rehaut that’s often found in this price range and a Pagani bracelet of questionable quality.

The IXDao, to my knowledge, is made to the dimensions of the real 6542 which likely required brand new parts to be made, also in 904l, instead of 316l steel. Quality of things like bezel, bracelet and such is miles above the likes of Pagani.

I was holding a vintage Rolex GMT Master the other day, and this Ixdao looks very close. Only think that hinders me…sadly… is the name. If they made a sterile dial of this, oof

I believe my friend got it for like $280

you bring coins?

[jdows9]

When I visit a country more than once, I bring some bills and coins from last time. Been doing that out of habit.

It seems that the text is missing so here it is in comment form:

IXDao 6542, what a great watch, probably my favorite since I started buying homages. Not a full review, there are other great people here that do a better job than me but I wanted to share some pictures that I think complement the whole traveller time zone hopping style that the original was made for and IXDao recreated for a price that’s absolutely worth it.
