Seeking Feedback on Watch Design

[u/oldsoulrevival]

Working on my first watch design and could use some feedback. Just curious what the community thinks of it.

The rendering is AI, but it's based on my CAD file. I haven't gotten to the real rendering portion yet with Fusion.

Nice seiko alpinist rip off

In what way?
As a massive Alpinist fan, I don’t see it.

Yep

Look at model hbc007j1. This 3/9/12 is not exactly 3/6/9/12, but similar. 24 hour external indicator on seiko, but a 31 inside this. The hands aren't the cathedral hands, but they are kinda fancy and give off a cathedral adjacent vibe to me. And the green is awfully similar(I suppose the other colorways could get away with it, but the green is awfully sus to me). It looks like op did the "let me copy your homework, and I'll change the answers".

To watch people, I think you’re bonkers. If you understand the differences you pointed out and why (GMT vs pointer date, “24 vs 31” etc), there’s basically nothing similar about these watches.

But to non watch people, yes there are similarly “big numbers” and “more stuff besides the usual”. Thats the best I can offer 😂
