Simply stunning. Only complaint is the rather dainty 38.5mm case, but simply superb otherwise.

From a rep standpoint should not be too hard to make. Doubtful it would ever happen as a rep, but still a gorgeous piece to stare at regardless.
I wish that they can make a rep of this. I was thinking that the st-19 movement would fit in nicely. Although there would be inaccuracies in size and maybe subdial spacing but it should be a pretty decent rep.

Alright guys. Bit more info on this guy.

Movement is a seagull manual winding chrono. Same movement from the Datograph.

Maker is unknown maker, and price seems to be around $250.

I won't be taking the plunge, but if anyone else does then be sure to report back.
