hi! i promised early about putting up a personal review on the Dievas Vintage 3646. i got this recently, and as you can see the design is similar to Panerai Radiomir, but at a fraction of the price lar. Personally, i'm pretty impressed with quality and build, its pretty heavy, im not sure how heavy, but its as heavy as my previous owned Omega Seamaster 300M GMT.

The Sandwich Dial...
Very easy to wind, dont have to pull out the crown, just wind it at that position. Plus the crown isnt too big, so doesnt really hurt my wrist.
swiss unitas 6497, cotes de geneve + blue screws
Beautiful angle to see the cotes de geneve.
bought this extra strap, 26mm, 5mm thick, calf leather...actually the thickness doesnt go that well with the watch, but trial and error..hahah! might try and get a croc leather next.
my Wrist is about 6.7", so basically! okie okie lar...i do like big watches..but i think 44-45mm is the best size for my wrist.
Finally! thank you for looking at my new collection. i would say no regrets buying this homage, i think price is pretty decent, although some said that for a homage its really expensive...but friends...you want Swiss made, swiss/ german parts..then have to pay the price lor....heheheh!
But in our forum, we have some Sifus who are able to make their own homage! "Malaysia Boleh" spirit. i really do want to take a look at the complete watch, im sure it will be fantastic.
Thanks once again!
