Mine came today, looks good for the price. My only slight concern is the face has a green tint rather than cream

Looking at my Rover collection brochure, I see Rover sold another watch, which had no Brand or logo on the face . Unless it was engraved on the back.
Has anyone got one of these watches? They were £89.00

This is a good find and certainly far cheaper than the original manufacturer who quoted me just recently for a re-run of the original oval design. I was fortunate to grab an oval original before prices went too crazy. Nevertheless at £22.00 worth the punt

Nope, I agree there - Would be fantastic if they lit up like the Timex Indiglo watches, but orange instead of greeny blue!

Mine arrived today, a brilliant buy and probably the same quality as the original, if not better

This available one is nice, but I prefer to have a watchface with the standard numbers 1 to 12. My watch is a Rover one, has the Viking shield badge just below the 12, and ROVER above the 7-6-5. I'm sure it's a genuine Rover supplied extra, presumably long non-available. Bit knocked about now, must get the case replated and fit a new glass.
