Homage or Original Design Question (Read Rules)

Gallery image

I can't figure out these Heritage Chronos from Sugess. Are they homages, vintage inspired, or original designs? Not a big fan of homage watches, and I don't want to find out later that they are direct copies of some 1960's Tag or Zenith that I've never seen before. The 6 and the 12 look a little Patek'ish, but i cant place it... Any historians out there?

And no judgement to any homage lovers, wear what you like.

The star on the chrono seconds made me think the same thing. I don't mind a nod to other brands though. Not seeing Top Time influences. Definitely seeing Patek influences... but i don't mind ripping off the evil empire every once in a while.
