My favorite by far. The gold hands are vintage-cool for certain.

Oh man Eric !!! You are killin' me with these Marina Militare's.  Thumbsup3.gif

Very, very nice choice (loving the Brushed Case with the Polished Bezel and those gold treated hands give it a very unique look).

I continue to "feel the pressure" to pick up one of these homage pieces.

Nice acquisition !!!!  Congrats & Enjoy !!  ThumbsUp02.gif

For 3/4 of a 100... You can't go wrong with this one. The finish is really nice and the Asian 6497 is keeping great time.

Thanks for the info Eric.  I've been wondering how these Asian 6497's hold up against the actual Unitas versions. 

Since you've got at least a couple of these now, would you say you see much variation in the build quality or time keeping of these particular homages?

I also noticed that they will let you add a sapphire crystal to any of the watches for a very reasonable price.  I'm really feeling the urge to order one of these once I figure out what kind of dial/case combo I like the best.  I'm really liking the white sandwich dial on the one that you got.  ThumbsUp02.gif

Thanks

So far I have only experienced excellence with the asian 6497...It actually has a longer power reserve than the Unitas 6497.
