Icon5 Steinhart & Debaufre Watches

Well....I have been saving to get a 16713 GMT w/jubilee. I also fell in love with the 16710 Pepsi. I can't have both...yet. So, I have decided to get the 16713 first. Now I've been looking online and came across these brands called Steinhart and Defaubre. They have this model called the Ocean 1 GMT and it looks EXACTLY like the Pepsi. (Don't flame me for this.) It's actually a bang for the buck. Has anyone owned or came across these brands before? I am considering to get one with my low patience and all. It looks like the specs are not that bad. Any opinions or thoughts are welcome. Thanks!

Here are the links.

I have a steinhart "pepsi", and it's a great watch, considering the price tag. It's powered by 21 jewels, ETA 2893-2 movement. WR 300m, 42 mm without crown and has a very comfortable 22 mm SS bracelet.

Very nice watch! That is the one I'm interested in. But in a 39mm version.
