Looks like UK online Watchshop is doing their own version of homages, but nowhere near as well as Island Watch is managing to do.

Looks like the have three "house brands." Supposedly all made by Rotary.

Depth Charge (dive watches they say aren't Sumbariner homages...ok, sure).

Slipstream (Breitling and a mashup of TAG+Rolex himages)

Locksley London (Tissot homages)

They also carry some crap fashion lower end to decent brands. And they carry Accurist which are a phenom in the affordable FB groups.

ACCURIST:
Evidently from the same company that hold Sekonda, Time Factors, Ltd

No doubt the "house brands" and Accurist are all Chinese made.

I like the Locksley watches but what is with the microscopic date window, as for the others, well, as you rightly pointed out Islander do it far better.

Those brand names are the Dirk Diggler and Chest Rockwell of horology.
