Just had a look at their website (Sharkey) They actually have a homage to a Christopher Ward trident there as well
£300? Have steeldive caught on and started bumping the price up like Seiko? :)
Always thought that may be the case.

The only picture I have
I have a Panerai sterile dial homage, case is probably the same as what many other companies use, movement is accurate (I seriously doubt it’s been regulated). Dial looks great I am very happy with...
A large pool of Seiko watches in the affordable category are also “Rip offs” from other brands (date justs, divers etc). They are also made in places like China, Malaysia etc where labour costs are...
Not tried one of the Seiko homage ones and I suspect that much of the hype is a little OTT much like the whole "Seiko is just as good if not better than XYZ brand" Perhaps many like myself are...
Picked up a sterile dial Panerai homage, arrived next day and I have to say very happy with it. Thought it may disappoint with it being an automatic but no issues with it. Considering the price and...
It does make me smile the comment on Seiya japan which basically says don’t expect it and if that’s what you want buy a Swiss watch.
Just waiting on the new stock, should be end of September to buy one of the Panerai homage/knock offs....
That is so much better with a sterile dial. I asked their UK dealer and he only has them with the logo on them. If only, otherwise I would get one.
Its precisely this which puts me off buying one, yes I know they are only £100 but I would rather £100 in my pocket than down the drain (Literally) If I bought one it would be with the intention of...
As others have said that probably depends on your age, I kind of know what you are talking about but I imagine anyone under the age of 30 will not have a clue. Smoking is not nearly as common and...
Not me I have always considered the Orient Mako better than the Seiko SKX. Back when everyone was swooning over the SKX it was selling for about £110 and the Orient was about £80 on a bracelet and...
May take a look at that the other seller doesn’t sell sterile dial watches.
Will be interesting to see how these watches get on over the next few months with day to day use, swimming, being out and about. If they really can take a bit of a beating then I think we have a bit...
Where are you getting the sterile dial versions?
Thanks for the comments, cant understand why they would put such photos on their own website photos here looks 100 times better! I am considering one of those Panerai homage as a bit of fun watch, I...
Whats the finish like on the dial and hands please?
Pictures posted here look excellent and very encouraging reading the comments on the quality. I had a look at one of their Seiko homage watches on their website and the close up images of the dial...
