Honourable shoutout to this Heimdallr 62MAS homage.

The good:
1. Sapphire crystal
2. Ceramic bezel w/ lumed pip
3. NH35 movement
4. Very good finishing on case and dial, finishing on hands goes from brushed on top and chamfers down into polished
5. $220 ($190 w/ mineral)
6. Lume
7. Logo/ text on dial execution inoffensive compared to usual Chinese homage/ copy fare
The bad:
1. Bad bezel alignment
2. Rubber strap feels a bit plasticky (not a wealth of experience to compare it against)
I've read their after sales service is, like many Chinese vendors, very responsive and diligent. Early versions having 300m water resistant printed on the dial and 200m engraved on the case back.

Case and bezel look surprisingly good, as do the hands and the date window frame. But the proportions of the markers and dial are all wrong. Looks squashed/puckered. Hilariously cheap though.
