The best part about JOMW is the occasional surprise gags. Keep it up, man. And excellent review. It's in my shopping cart already!

Damn I was just searching the best sub homage and this video pops up. Thanks for your amazing videos Jody!

Brilliant, this video is one of the best that I have seen on the subject, so I subscribed.

I would 100% be taking the pt5000 movment, brilliant for the price you're paying for it!

Jody do you think the new cronos is the best Rolex Submariner homage out there right now ? 🤔 I just purchased it with the full loomed bezel and glidelock for 205. That has to be the best value don't you think? Ray USA

Given the value of that Sw200, this watch should qualify for the "Swiss made" label. Bargain!

Very cool indeed 👍👍great specs for the price picking up one my self before Christmas....is win. Win..

I sometimes feel like for any watch without a dedicated certification process the performance depends more on pure luck than on which movement you pick.

Can't wait to see your comparison of the GMT homage models!! Purchasing my next watch based on that!

I'd personally go with the PT5000 version myself. They're good movements, I've got another Cronos with it in. No issues at all.

@@godGottgod This movement has been around for about 5 years and several higher end China based manufacturers are using it while giving respectable 2 year warranties. The PT5000 has also achieved a Glashütte certification which is arguably better than COSC. If peace of mind is worth a 50% premium to you, by all means the SW200 is the way to go. Personally I can't see paying that much more for the SW200 when the chances are quite high that you're never going to notice a difference. If this were a $500+ watch, then I might think differently.

I love this watch! I cannot get over how much I love this watch... I think it may be my favorite sub $500 watch, full stop. I can't afford it right now because of the Pandemic but Wow! What a great watch. As soon as I can buy watches again I will be picking this one up.

Thanks for the review.

If I did not have a Tisell Marine diver which is pretty much homage sub, I might pick this up. A real swiss movement. I think I paid 235 for the Tisell. It has protruding lugs which I hate. But easy to swap out being 2omm

That intro 😂 very impressive watch for the $!

I literally didn’t even notice the white frame around the date at first, but definitely messes with the overall aesthetic of the watch. That, and the lack of on the fly adjustment is a bummer.

Hi..great review again..QUESTION:who has the best jubilee for this homage or the Sanmartin?? I just bought the black/gold homage from Sanmartin..really want a jubilee on it...any suggestions? Thanks Mate!!

Good review. It might be cool for you to do an aliexpress straps video. Maybe an example of what to look for when buying leather, rubber, brackets, etc.

I'd go with the pt5000, especially when that sellita is putting out poor numbers like that on the timegrapher. In my experience sellitas are always running a little too fast for their added cost. The miyota 9015 in my Tisell runs no worse than +5 spd.

Hour markers are a little bit yellowish on my pt5000, is it normal? Does yours selita movt watch has it too or they are pure white like the numbers on the bezel? Ive bought selita version... the indices are a bit yellow too :/

Funny you should mention about increasing that 1mm because PHYLIDA already has, and tbh it was quite a surprised 😅! Great in depth review as always, been away from the comments section recently. Amazing how your own channel can take up loads of your free time! Don't know if you remember my first video way back when, but I've been slowly growing in the background and just thought I'd come by and let you know i've hit that 1000 subscriber milestone 🙌🏻 so wanted to say thanks again for helping inspire me to launch my own channel! 🤙🏻

I've got a dremel floating around somewhere. We'll make those lugs whatever width you want.

Wonder if any of these or the san martin mas62 style have been tested for depth. Doubt it'll ever be needed but nice to know.

I really did not notice that date frame until you pointed it out....

The thing you didn't mention, which is also good about the Cronos, is that the magnifier actually magnifies! I gotta say, I like what they did with this. Unfortunately I have a squale 1545 and a ginault and there's no more room for rollie-omages in my basket. All the same, I agree with your review and this IS tempting.

I would like to ask you about a watch I have. Its a seagull and I haven't seen another like it. The date is two separate wheels the you have to reset every month because it goes up to 39. I'd love to know if its a fake or real. Its square face a bit like a Cartier. Is there any way of sending you a picture? Thanks

I have a san Martin sub black face. I’d like a green face also, undecided on cronos or another San Martin. What would you or subscribers recommend please ?? Thanks

Just orders myself one! They are now offering the watch without that date frame so went for that one

Does the no-logo version have the outline around the date window?

Jody, I get that you want to see a Rolex homage with a Swiss movement, but this is after all a Chinese manufactured watch and not a Swiss manufactured watch. If Chinese manufacturing is good enough for the rest of the watch, then it should be good enough for the movement as well. The PT5000 is an excellent 2824 clone and the upgrade to the SW200 costs more than half again more than the version with the PT5000. Resale value of a $200 watch isn't the issue. Your timegrapher proves accuracy isn't the issue. So why promote a version of this watch with a 50% premium for a movement you can't see and will almost certainly never notice any difference? At the $200 price point for the PT5000 version this watch is a smoking hot deal. $300+, not so much.

I wouldn't mind that date frame if they ditched the cyclops. The San Martin apparently shortened their end links so they jut less. Is that true of Cronos as well?

This is a very well made watch, I already have got their SM 300 homage and it's similarly well made. My main issue with this watch is: why would I spend money on a Sellita movement when it comes running at + 12 sec at a considerable beat error. I'd much rather have a Miyota 9015 for 100 $ less if I have to regulate it myself when I want it to run within better specs. But a great review video as always, cheers! 👍

I bought the previous version of this after your review, only worn it about 8 time & its started falling to bits, the number 9 marker has fallen off & its making aloud rattling sound, also it doesn't wind up, messaged cronos no reply.

Was that a "homage Jody" in the beginning? When do we get a review of that?

I'm seriously impressed with the Phylida homage, which I'm just editing the review and will be online on my channel in a couple of hours. Movement quality aside, the watch itself has all the goodies you can expect, including a fully brushed bracelet with screw in pins and a very usable easy-glide system. The bezel is ceramic, and fully lumed. And the overall lume of the dial is outstanding for a sub $100 chinese homage. Please give it a look whenever you have a chance. Your opinion about the best value Sub homage might change.

Hi Jody. I just took a look at the "pagrne" design store on Ali express and noticed they have a Rolex Daytona homage for sale with an automatic movement for £66. Surely worth a punt!

Is the Cronos Sub Homage with the Chinese movement better than the Invicta Prodiver with the Seiko movement? The prodiver is $80 and looks exactly like the Cronos but I will say the Cronos clasp and band is a step up from the prodiver. The Swiss movement would put the Cronos above the Prodiver easy.
