So pretty!

I have a Steinhart Ocean One that is an even more blatant "homage" to the Tudor that I enjoy similarly, and I think it was maybe $500 at most. It gets looks because it has an almost identical bezel to a Rolex/Tudor and most people can't even tell the difference.

Homage watches ftw.

Sure, it's a $100 knockoff of the Rolex/Tudor classic, but you get a mechaquartz movement and the peace of mind that only comes with wearing a watch that doesn't cost as much as a car on your wrist.

Excellent watch choice for a trip. I don't think its a good idea to travel with expensive watches anymore... maybe it never was.
