I think it was the second logo, out of the four.

I just was seeing if there’s a logo history and see on Wikipedia that Jaguar claimed they infringed on a trademark. Maybe a reason one of the logos changed. Says they were sued in 2018.
I would argue they copied the chronoswiss logo :?

Makes sense to me. Very similar, no doubt.

Not a watch, but I found this toolbox at Harbor Freight for $85 while I was looking at big tool boxes. This is my new watch tool/accessory station and I have to say I’m really excited about it.

Two new ones from sales. The Citizen I bought mainly thinking if I didn't like it, I could flip it after upgrading the bracelet on on BN0198 diver. This chrono has the nice diver extensions like the BN015X models.

The Gshock is much darker in person than in pics. Looks near black sometimes.

Another eBay ‘bargain’, description said it was the diver AQM 4 3D, but it clearly isn’t…. For a start it has no divers bezel, secondly the advert says 500m WR, it’s actually only 50m. What is going on- no mention of it on the official website- until I found this
Image

I guess it’s my fault for reading the advert and not going over the photos with a loupe- any thoughts!? They only got it may this year and I’ve got the full paperwork!?

Should be legitimate. Schaumburg does a lot of bespoke watches without ever advertising them sometimes so it wouldn't surprise me. They have the capability to do almost everything in house except the movement, they can even repair extremely rare watches from companies like Martin Braun which are now gone. You can always message them on Facebook and they'll reply in a couple days.

The watch is genuine @AndroidIsAwesome the guy was really cool about the whole thing, offered me my money back- I proposed a slight refund and me keeping the watch. So I now have a 1 of a kind handmade watch that cost me £250 (or $251 at todays prices!) It isn’t what I was expecting but I’m pleased with the outcome.
