Well... Personally, I'm not crazy about RoseGold. So in that aspect no biggy.

Thanks for sharing. Nice piece you have there. Modding a watch can be a double edge sword. Personally I think that it is never a good idea to do such a thing to an original and classic timepiece; sacrilege indeed. I think that for doing mods that it is best to do it from scratch. Purchase all the parts individually and build your own creations from scratch.

But what I like about the Islander homage to the SKX is that its specs are much better than the actual Seiko model. With a solid-sink bracelet, AR Sapphire Crystal, and luminous ceramic bezel insert.

I don't think they are imitations, but you make an interesting point. I guess we could expect Invicta to make homages of the SKX anytime. Still, if I wanted such I would go for Islander Watches' version of that Seiko diver. They are supposed to be better than the original.

When do you think that is too much.

Okay, I'll admit it. I'm guilty of owning a couple of homages. But sometimes I wonder when a homage is just an excuse for a cheaper and sometimes sorr...
