This arrived this week along with several others.

 

Band
: Genuine Black Leather strap with Glossy buckle

Movement
: Automatic

Hands
: Luminous Black Color Hands, Second hand on 9.00 Position

Hack second hand stop sweeping when you set the time

Dial
: White dail with Luminous Markers

Glass
: Scratch Resistance Mineral Crystal, Magnifying lens inside the crystal over the date at 3 O'clock

Case
: Polished Glossy Solid 316L Stainless Steel with Solid Caseback

Size
: 44mm in Diameter

Lugs Size
: 24mm

From Ebay seller:
helenarou  5 day delivery to Florida

This one I would rate as a 7.5 on a 1-10 scale as far a MM's go. Better than average but not what I would call "very-good". Mostly let down by the strap/buckle and some very slightly buggered up screws. Has a very good polish, and a very good lume (for a MM). Lettering is neat. Has gained 9 seconds in last 48 hours.  With a better strap/buckle and a few new screws I would give it a 8.5.

Your recent incomings have inspired me to get going and get a homage (or two or three) Yes, I plan on buying a PAM sometime, but with the economy the way it is it might have to be next year...

They all look great! Really like the how crisp the white dial is.

I looked up that seller and just bought the same watch with a black dial.  It was only $165.00 on a buy it now, so I really can't go too wrong???????  I will let you know what I think when it arrives.

Very nice. I decided a while back that I wouldn't buy another homage, but that's tempted me. hand6.gif

Love that look!  I'm pretty impressed with how precise the lume pips are.  Looks like they did a pretty good job.  Congrats!hand6.gif
