Nothing to do with TagH... but I always thought 'Homages' is a funny term...
Which seems to be used in the watch world do describe copies of originals... like those Panerai look a likes which are not made by Panerai but are identical but without the logo. Most (including me) would call them copies... watch people call them 'Homage...
