The Chinese are masters with copying and could clone those easily if the market would buy them. The originals were not that popular and their Japanese competitors killed them on it.
I'm not sure what that would be. Like fake transistors and wires with a quartz or NH35 movement underneath? Or somehow recreate the tuning fork movement?
I have no issue if they're taking inspiration on vintage pieces, but most watches you find on those Chinese online resellers are straight up copies of existing designs, not a fan of that but if they made an original deisgn, i would be at least interested.

True but atleast they sell under there own brand and not with a Rolex omega logo
Doesn't change the fact they are selling a copied design, original brand on the dial or not.
Yea I only have these 2 for the colors, not because I wanted a homage to the real Rolex versions. There’s no such thing as any brand selling Tiffany blue automatics under $500 besides from long islander

Well, that is fair, Casio sells one in a similar visual but it'a quartz and very cheapily made., outside of the Islander i don't know any too, the closest thing would be a Citizen Tsuyosa.

I hate “homage”. Just stealing someone’s designs. Get something you like from a real brand you can afford and enjoy.
It is very hard to make an Accutron space view homage as the movement is no longer made by anyone.

Would be better if they made their own original designs
Are you referreing to the Accutron Spaceview with the 214 tuning fork movement? Or the Precisionist movement Spaceview released a few years ago.
Either way it wouldn't really be possible because one movement no longer exists in enough quantity and the other is proprietary to Bulova.
So pretty much a moot point.

Are you a current Bulova fan? If so, what do you think of the Jetstar? Thx
Sure why not! They make everything else
