Hi, Group! Like Russ says, "It's Monday again." Continuing the search of the back waters of the watch boxes, I came across this STERILE HOMAGE to the ROLEX SUB I purchased from a mate shortly after I joined either RWI or RWG. Has nice weight & presence, has a great date cyclops, the seconds hand has a smooth sweep (but wasn't able to take off the case back to look inside); bracelet links are solid & held together by screws. Ceramic-style bezel adds to it as well. Tomorrow, I'll post pics of the GMT STERILE HOMAGE relative of this beauty. dave:

Hiya, Group! Today's ride is the semi-twin of the sterile Rolex Sub homage showcased yesterday: STERILE HOMAGE to the ROLEX GMT-MASTER II. Feels just like some of the "normal" reps of this that I have in my collection. Watch case and bracelet are well made, with no sharp edges or burrs, has a great dial, bezel, cyclops, and seconds sweep. Bracelet links are solid & possess a goodly weight so you know it's on your wrist. Like its twin, this was purchased eons ago and has largely dwelt in the shadows of the watch box's back row. I really should wear it more often but don't. dave:

SORRY, GANG. This is the only pic I can salvage after my old laptop died. I'll try to see if I could post a few more after I fiddle around with this contraption.

HAPPY HUMPDAY, all!
Today, another treasure from the shadowed back row of the watch boxes -- this SWISS LEGEND EXPEDITION Diver on black rubber strap purchased probably from a dealer years ago because it came with a good looking watch box. It's a quartz watch with very easy to read dial, nice dial details, great presence on the wrist (50mm w/crown x 14mm). Comfortable black rubber strap. Sadly, SWISS LEGEND is no longer in business. dave:
