Completely agree, but I really struggle with homages.
In the early days of Christopher Ward I bought a C60 and loved it, but as my appreciation of watches has grown I've found myself becoming less attached due to the similarities with Rolex divers, not because I dislike the style, but because my perception of it has changed - I find it less honest (really difficult to describe).
For me, I've yet to find anything that ticks my genuine/authentic/quality/styling/practicality boxes beyond Sinn, hence quite a few are at the top of my list.
