3 suggestions and all for a homage.
But what makes the difference between a homage and a copy???
Yeah, that is a good point. I agree.
Since your company is founded on making rugged, well priced, simple, functional, modern looking divers Here is what I would like to see:
***A simple case design ... something along the lines of the simplistically beautiful Sea Devil but all in Titanium.
***Just do an engraved chapter ring, with filled in markings in Black, much like the Sea Devil as well.
***Make a plain lume dial with NO MARKINGS on it whatsoever with the exception of the Benarus logo above the hands and the depth rating below the hands, both in Black. I am thinking the dial color would be a slate gray ... but I know it could be done in white or even orange if you wanted. Stick with me here :p .
***This is where the color comes in. On the underside of the crystal, backprint some big block-like numerals at 3,6,9, and 12 ... you could do the indices in between too, all so they 'stand off' from the dial. Imagine this being done in orange, bright blue, yellow!
***At that point, you either do black skeleton hands, or color-match the hands to the numeral print color.
***Of course it would need to be an automatic :D . The 21 jewel Miyota is fine with me ... affordable and reliable.
The method to my madness is that you would have a very simle base watch to build with the only specific components being the crystal and maybe the hands.
You could also offer other color combos ... imagine an orange lume dial with black printed numbers and skeleton hand with this design ... yum :) .
Well ... you asked for ideas. There's mine :) .
