Last time, I introduced a watch of Specht & Sohne at https://www.bobswatchstore.com/2025/07/06/specht-sohne-tag-heuer-monaco-homage-review/, which is a great homage watch of the Tag Heuer Monaco, at least a lot of people on forums and reddit like this Specht & Sohne and have recommended it, I do not have particular feelings about this brand, for people who want high quality homages, Specht & Sohne is not what they are looking for, their marketing position is low-end and cheap homage watches of many Swiss brands like Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet and so on. However, such homage brands like Specht & Sohne have one common feature, which is acting very fast to produce the homages when those Swiss brands published new models. For example, I have already found that the homage of Patek Philippe Cubitus 5821 and the homage of Rolex Land-Dweller in Specht & Sohne collection, while the Pagani Design that has the similar marketing position still has not produced these two watches. For Specht & Sohne, Pagani Design and others like them, their business in the past is more or less related to the fake watches, so whether the cheap homage brands Pagani Design and Specht Sohne, or higher-end Steeldive, Octopus, Sugess, etc., their development path is similar and their creative thinking is limited. There is no future for them.
How about this Specht & Sohne watch? The price is around $97, not expensive, but you know, many homages are only $50 or even much lower. This watch looks similar to the latest Rolex Land-Dweller, seeing from the front, it looks like a good high-end dress watch, but from the back, the movement seems not to match its high-end image. It has a Miyota movement that is completely naked without any decoration. I would rather a solid case back on this watch.
It is a solid stainless steel watch with a Japanese automatic movement, priced at $97, for a Chinese watch with such a price, you can not ask for too much on the finish, we can see slightly polished edge on the case and bracelet, but not too obvious, on some specific corners, I can still feel sharp. The hour markers also lack rounded polishing on the corner. I can not see sunburst reflection on the dial.
My conclusion
For all Chinese homage watches with Japanese automatic movement whose prices range from $50 to $100, please do not expect too much, they must have compromised on the craftsmanship.
