The "Hommage..." The word can be loved, hated, lukewarm, or outright ignored. What makes a watch an hommage or a blatant copy and rip-off? Well, we take a bit of time today to take a closer look. Using the gold-standard of divers watches and design, the Rolex Submariner, we try to see what elements that appear on other brand's divers are nods to the original, and what is simply a copy of design language. Join us as we take a few minutes to discuss this topic and make sure you let us know in the Facebook groups what you think about the "Hommage Dilemma."
