Good Omens; Crowley's wristwatch

[Funky]

In the first episode Crowley wears a countdown wristwatch which I'm certain doesn't exist, but dammit, it the coolest watch I've ever seen! Anyone familiar with anything that looks close to it?

I can't believe it's a real watch.
Oh wait, for 20k? Yeah, I believe it.

I have Prime, so I get the show, right ? I haven't tried yet. Today was supposed to be the first episode.

Didn't see any other threads about Good Omens yet but I went to the A Z Fell and Co book shop in London today and took a load of pics of the props. Will try to get a few uploaded soon.

Here are a couple of details of Crowley's costume. There's an album of odds and ends in my media.

there is a shop here that has some fantastic reproduction of the watches. If I had realized how expensive the real ones were I would have grabbed a couple last time I was in the city. I'll post a photo next time I'm there

If you happen to get back and are willing to ship a replica to Ohio.... Hit me up!

Hey pendragons, thanks for replying. I've been meaning to check this thread again. I did go back to the market and found the watches and took some pic's but on closer inspection and comparing them to the actual watch, to say they were replicas is pretty generous. To say they are inspired by them would also actually be a bit of a stretch to be honest. I spoke to the guy about it and he said he'd have a chat to the factory (family business back in Hong Kong) and see what they thought which sounded pretty promissing although given the nature of the real one I doubt a cheap replica would be that cheap

I'd be curious to see the photos. I'm familiar with a bunch of the popular replica dealers, and have never seen any devons. I think the nature of them would make them realllyy hard to do a replica of, and even if someone did, the replicas would be pretty expensive.

I would happily send money to get one of those. I’ve been looking into modeling the pieces for a non working replica, but it would save me buckets of time if I didn’t have to.

Hey man, yeah like I said, after a second look they weren't really up to the job. I've been meaning to get back there and have a chat to the owner but life ya know. I'll definitely post here when I do

Here's a website with knock off Devon Thread model 1s. I don't know what the quality is, but the price is $450-500 compared to the $24k for the real ones.

I’d be careful when ordering “replicas” without pictures of the actual project.

That's the picture they have. But I did decide to look into the site and it seems that they are probably a scam.
