This is the best Sub Homage that I've experienced and if you want to buy one for your self the I will leave an affiliate link below:

Thank you so much for WATCHing my video and I hope that you check out all my other content.
I release 3 videos per week, all watch related, including reviews, first impressions and general watch related topics.
I try very hard to diversify my content. Featuring known watch brands, microbrands, Aliexpress. Some I have purchased new, others second hand.
The majority of the watches that I feature I have purchased. I buy them to enjoy, wear, have in my collection. I then also feature them on this channel.
Being a smaller channel it is challenging to cover the cost of all the watches that I buy and partly because of this I have become an affiliate member with a number of companies including Aliexpress and Ashford.com.
If you are looking for watches from well known brands then it is worth checking out:
www.ashford.com
If you are looking for great strap options then definitely check out:
vario.sg/
and
artemstraps.co...
As an affiliate member I may leave affiliate links in the descriptions of videos. These links will direct you to the watches that I’ve experienced, reviewed and would certainly recommend. If you choose to use those links I will earn a very small commission.
Thank you very much if you choose to use those links.
Below are affiliate links for my absolute favourite watches on Aliexpress. Each of them I have owned and had positive experiences with the stores that they are linked to.

I absolutely 100% agree! This is not an homage, this is basically a clone. It's about as close to the real thing as you're going to get. The date version has an optional SW200 movement but for some reason the no-date doesn't. I own this watch and absolutely love it! Definitely my pick for best Sub homage/clomage. I also own and love the new San Martin Titanium Sub homage. That one is a little pricey but also a fantastic watch.

@TheGrenadier97 4 месяца назад
If someone truly has a plan to eventually buy a $10,000-plus watch, getting a $200-ish homage to "test the waters" along the way won't hurt. The greatest point about all this is that Rolex as a brand simply doesn't deserve my respect and hard-won money, even if i had plenty to spare.

James, you can use a drop of oil and eliminate the squeaking immidaitly. I have a barber clipper machine and with the kit theres really good oil. Just put a drop of oil, let it sit for 2 minutes and wipe it off. Actually i think any oil would work except wd40 bc its solvent and not oil so if you use wd40 the squeaking might return once its fully disolved. If they put an nh38 it would be a great option imo, and ofc making it inspried by and not this close to the original.. Have a great weekend!

If you're describing the SN0006 with drilled lug holes, it sounds like the same watch I recently purchased and have been quite impressed with. I chose the white dial / black bezel version, and with its milsub sword hands, boxed crystal, inverted end links and slimmer San Martin clasp, it's just different enough to not feel "over homaged," as James calls it, while still retaining the core elements.

I have three of these in different colors with and without the date. They make super comfortable beater watches. The ergonomics of these watches prove to me why Rolex is so powerful. The design hits all the sweet spots. I will definitely be buying the real thing once I decide on the exact model. This, I believe, is the purpose of homage watches...trying out the design. I had an Omega Seamaster homage and ended up buying the real thing. I also bought an Omega Speedmaster homage and also then bought the real thing. So now Rolex.

Hi that's a really good way of getting into that stile of watch with out making a expensive mistake have done this with stinhart before buying a Rolex and it was good for me because it showed me that the bigger case size is better for my wrist size so I went for the sea dweller instead.

Before I bought this watch, I always wanted a Submariner. Now though I can't image spending $9-10k on a watch that is going to look almost exactly like my Cronos. Yes, I know it's a Rolex but it's the look of the watch that I love not the name on the dial. I no longer have that desire to own the Rolex. I think I would regret and feel like a fool for spending all that money.
@TheBimmer74
@TheBimmer74 3 месяца назад
If one has the money to spend, the real thing offers a highly engineered movement. That is why I bought my Omega watches. After all, for me, it's mostly about the movement. That is why we buy automatic watches in the first place vs quartz, which offers much greater accuracy than any automatic. If you are willing to wait, you can get a Rolex at MSRP, and if you ever decide to sell it, you certainly won't lose money.
@sinjinadams2862
@sinjinadams2862 3 месяца назад
I agree that the movement is very important but because I am not a professional diver, adventurer or British Secret Agent, I don't need a movement so highly engineered. As a desk diver, a Seiko or Selita movement is perfectly fine for me. 😁😁

@petrolbokehlicious
@petrolbokehlicious 3 месяца назад
My L6015 (blue dial with date, blue bezel with only the pip lumed) came with very sharp bracelet edges that I had to file, sand, and polish down to make it bearable for me to wear. The case also has very sharp edges, but since this watch sits floating on my wrist because of its thick caseback, I am not bothered with that. This is my first Chinese brand watch, and I bought it specifically because other reviewers have mentioned that it has soft bracelet and case edges, so obviously I feel mislead by them. I then bought a bunch of Pagani Design DD40 and DJ41 homages and those have even worse offending bracelets but surprisingly soft cases. A cheap Mini Focus bullhead homage I bought for my kid also came with a bracelet with sharp edges. And the titanium Watchdives by Saint Martin Pelagos homage that is in transit is also said to have sharp edges. The only Chinese brand sub homage that everybody consistently says to have soft edges is Sugges but I only found out after I purchased this Cronos, and they don't make a blue dial/ blue bezel. This Cronos' saving grace is its outstanding finishing, especially its beautiful enamel dial.

My sub homage is a Pagani PD1661. Gives the experience homage buyers are looking for at half the price of the Cronos. It’s decent quality, so I wouldn’t pay much more for a sub homage. Something it did confirm for me, is that dive style is not my favourite & personally I prefer to wear smaller size watches.

@1SaG
@1SaG 3 месяца назад
I'll repeat myself yet again and recommend the Cronos to anyone who is looking for a "modern-Sub" homage. Personally, I would prefer a faithful 5-digit homage, but since I don't think anyone is making those at the moment, this is the best option for someone who doesn't want a vintage-Sub look-alike. I own/have owned quite a few Steinharts and while I prefer their smaller and more "discreet" footprint (39mm version, the 42mm ones are a bit of a saucer on my wrist), they really fall off vs the Cronos when it comes to certain features. For example: No piano-black/lacquered dial, much flatter and simpler indices (they might even be simply pressed into the dial and not truly applied on the Steinharts), way less lume and a much simpler clasp with no on-the-fly adjustment. Also, since I own the date version: Much weaker cyclops than on the Cronos (which has 2.5x magnification). Slight caveat with the Cronos: It seems fairly common for the hands' and indices' daylight-lume-color to not match (indices can be a little more off white than the hands) - this is the case on my example from the summer of 2023 and I've also seen it on newer ones featured in YT-videos. It doesn't seem like they all have it, but some seem to - so probably a QC-issue.

So about a year ago I bought my first Cronos, the Subbie "Starbucks" version. Two weeks ago I was working on my workbench and caught the bracelet on a drawer pull, the pins snapped and the watch fell face on straight down. I picked it up and it appeared undamaged but the next day it quit. The Aliexpress sale was on and I bought the same watch with the full lume bezel for $235 US, about fifty bucks cheaper than my now dead no-lume bezel version. It arrived today. Incredibly fast delivery. I previously owned two Rolex Sea Dwellers. Neither one was even close to COSC accuracy. My first Cronos was accurate to 20 seconds per week! I agree wholeheartedly with your assessment. All aspects of this watch are superb including the glide-lock bracelet. If you want a superb subbie homage and a wonderful movement this is THE WATCH. Pay a bit more for the PT5000 movement, it's worth it.

That's funny because I watched a 60 Minutes episode years ago about the Chinese art market. They are famous for their artists reproducing great works of art like the Mona Lisa. They were actually quite good and very reasonably priced. I had seriously considered buying one but didn't.

I don't know how, or why, but the Rolex, having the same dimensions, wears smaller than it is.

I was able to try on the Rolex a while ago and did not notice that. But I did not have them side by side.

I love how everyone bitches and complains about Rolex. Rolex this, Rolex, that, price, build, time keeping blah blah blah. But people buy the cheap Chinese clomage of the Sub. LMAO. Then then they sit here and say they would never buy a Rolex, so they clearly have never owned one, then tell how great and better the clomage is than the Rolex. WTF? lol. Ok man whatever people need to tell themselves to feel better. Good Lord. Just cause you cant afford something doesn't mean its not worth it or a piece of sh*t. Just state you would love to own one but cant afford one end of story period. We only live once, we are not coming back so enjoy your life wear what you like, if you don't want to own when then fine. Move on Marine.

For me. There are many many other watches I would buy before a Rolex. Yet I still like the design of the sub. So this is a way of experiencing it whilst not eating into my savings that will be used towards other watches that I will buy

@@WATCHingJames totally agree. Not every watch is for everyone. But hearing people say this Chinese clomage is better than a Rolex and never owned one just kills me. Like someone saying oh my Kia Stinger is way better than a Porsche 911and cheaper lol. Ok if you say so. Thanks for the video.

HaHa! You brought up a lot of good points! I will never say that this watch or any Chinese homage/clomage is better than a Rolex. But, and I think it's a big but. When you put this watch next to a real Submariner, it just doesn't make any sense at least to me that the Rolex costs over 50 times more. It just makes me ask myself, what am I actually paying for?! Just having the name Rolex on the dial is not nearly enough for me. It just doesn't matter.

Although I have watched the video until the end, I stopped being interested in this watch when you showed the offcentered bezel.

@pzwolski what your’re seeing as an offset bezel is an illusion caused by only seeing the watch on video. He would nave called it oit if it was offset
