 Mitch has always said that the 'inspiration' for the start of Ocean7 with the LM-1LE was the "PloProf"; as can be seen in the use of the plongeur dial and hands but with a unique case (not off -the-shelf,  'mold' was destroyed after production run).   The LM-7 is a return to his original inspiration - with some twists.  I look forward to getting one of these on my wrist as well.  ;)

Is 07 in the business of making homage watches??


I don't feel any of the other Ocean7 watches are homage. They use off the shelf cases that others have used before so a few of the watches look similar to to others so some call them homage. Others may see it different than me though.
