Yup, that RGA30305 by Reef Tiger was one of my first homage watches I owned. Loved it until eventually purchasing my Blancpain FF, was an absolutely great watch! ua-cam.com/video/oCKrWj-A93M/v-deo.htmlsi=ycJMPhdhd-7g5-51
Congrats on the new order! Yeah it looks amazing and I've heard great things as well. I am going to put all my orders in soon so I'm still debating which ones I want to get...too many options haha. Cheers! 😎👍🍻
@@DavidSchwartzjr Hell yeah! Same I set my budget and made my order but I keep wanting to add more watches haha. We're gonna need the 11/11 haul vid too!
Great options David. I will have to seriously check them out! The Thorn looks awesome. Cronos and Hroudland are quality made. I thought that chronograph was a Breguet homage. Interesting 😊
Thanks man! Yeah my buddy Junior is willing to send a Thorn into the channel so hopefully I can get a review done asap! That chrono def has some Breguet vibes to it 😅
Yo Dave, thanks for the video bro, ‘bout time someone did one on the suite of blancpain homages! If you do get the Hruodland Ocean Commitment homage in blue, would love to see this reviewed and I would be interested in buying it off you as well 😊
Hey James, I'm glad you enjoyed the vid! Yes, I am most likely going to put an order in asap and if I get that hruodland LE Ocean Commitment I will let you know since you're interested in it as well. Stay tuned my friend! 😎👍🍻
I have the Rdunae with a really really nice box double dome sapphire crystal, and fitted a Yobokies mil spec dial. I think it looks awesome for less than £200 🤙
Hey Junior, thanks so much! I would absolutely love to check it out! Send me an email sometime and we can work out the logistics. Have a great weekend my friend! 😎🙌
The watch if great for the price the case especially the lugs is spot on the only complaint i have is the crown is a bit small. You mentioned the lug to lug it fits my 6.75 inch wrist well.
@@juniorjohnson5961 ah that is great to hear, I know the vintage ones can sometimes stick out on some wrists so it’s good to hear that’s not the case with this one
That’s interesting, maybe they have less QC when it comes to finishing or fitment on parts/alignment? That’s the only thing I could think of that would really warrant a significant price variance.
@@DavidSchwartzjr I bought it, thinking it was acrylic (which is what I really like) and alas, it was mineral. It's a great watch though and one I wear often. It's small, lightweight and very well made. I pull any metal bracelets from all my watches, cannot stand having a half pound of metal on my arm. I wear this over my Rolex sub or omega sea master, not due to worrying about the more expensive watches but because it's a really cool piece. I live in Asia and can wear a 10,000$ watch without worrying about some asshat cutting my arm off, as every fool here wears a fake AP or patek or Rolex and we thankfully don't get the kind of tourists you find in the heart of all the big cities back home...
@jeffmalm9708 yeah man I have seen similar with watches claiming sapphire and then it’s a “sapphire coated” mineral that only tests as a mineral glass on my diamond tester 😣 That is nice you don’t have to worry about rocking your luxury pieces there overseas, I’ve been lucky to never deal with stuff like that here in Texas but I also have insurance and most people don’t even know what a Blancpain or Tudor is which I’m okay with lol Have a great day my man! 😎🙌
I know exactly what you mean with the lume, especially from the dial vs hands or bezel. That is why I always like to look at one in person first if possible to see just how good or bad the lume actually is.
The 10 : 10 is supposed to make it look like it's smiling, which makes the buyer subconsciously have a positive feeling. 😊 The 8 : 20 though doesn't look like it's frowning, but I think it's more like a moustache on the face of a watch. 😂
@@AliasEveWatches It makes me think the watch is conforming to being the same when it is 10 after 10... I want a watch to break out of being the same... 😉

Reef tiger has an interesting FF homage as well

I ordered the Thorn and I can't wait. It looks so good and I've read a lot of positive stuff about it.

Got the Thorne and it is great very true to original good choice,very vintage
I have the Rdunae with a really really nice box double dome sapphire crystal, and fitted a Yobokies mil spec dial. I think it looks awesome for less than £200 🤙
That is too cool! Thanks for the feedback on the box double domed sapphire 😎👍 enjoy that watch!
@@DavidSchwartzjr I've sent you an image on insta
Thanks for the shout-out buddy 👍 If you want I'll send the Thorn to you to do a review. God Bless my friend 🙏

That Cronos is way more expensive on their official page. Do they keep the better ones for themselves?
That’s interesting, maybe they have less QC when it comes to finishing or fitment on parts/alignment? That’s the only thing I could think of that would really warrant a significant price variance.
A bright green one from Swatch🤣
Lol yup! 😂 I’m seriously about to put an order in bc I’m THAT curious haha
The rdunae is mineral glass, not acrylic.
Thanks Jeff! Comments like this are super helpful! I’ve had many homages specify one thing and it end up being different. 😎👍

main problem for those homage watches are the lume. so unstable in quality. and always got different brightness
I know exactly what you mean with the lume, especially from the dial vs hands or bezel. That is why I always like to look at one in person first if possible to see just how good or bad the lume actually is.
I have the Cronos and has great lume
I think that watch sellers should get away from having every watch picture with the hands in the same position ten after ten...
Yeah it’s the “standard” but doesn’t always work with every dial layout. Sometimes 8:20 is better 😎👍
The 10 : 10 is supposed to make it look like it's smiling, which makes the buyer subconsciously have a positive feeling. 😊 The 8 : 20 though doesn't look like it's frowning, but I think it's more like a moustache on the face of a watch. 😂

Buy all of them and make the reviews bro
Lol I wish man, but I e been burning all my cash on cigars lately! 😩
