Don't forget another 7% GST coming in. Which color did you go for? If blue probably will be OOS everywhere in Singapore, if black or white then probably bought it expensive.
Yes i forgot above sgd400 value still got GST. Dropping an email to them to see if can cancel order or not, if not just accept my fate. But I am still excited to get this piece

Is Tag Heuer watch have so many replica? I saw new aqua racer calibre 5 for 1100 in carousell. From the look of it is too good to be true. The seller also sell other brand like Oris, Tissot, Gucci, etc.

Yes, almost all brands have many replica now. Especially sold online carousell, lazada, shopee, there are more replica watches than genuine watches. Very important to know your stuff when buying from these places.

Pulled the trigger on the below and after some thought felt abit too impulsive, probably would have been able to get a better price after discount at AD. Anyone familiar with tissot can share the ADs here offer how many % discount?

haha i carted in as well, tempted to pull the trigger on the silver with the gold combo.

did a google the rrp for sgd is ard 950 for the blue/black, not sure if local AD will give discount.

i thought will be oos fast but surprisingly still got stocks. im still tempted to cart out cos i think it will only hit our shores end of 4Q... so u will be the first few wearers for a few mths...

hard to predict for the waffle dial. the quartz blue even till now still oos. the silver + gold combo is quite dressy and might sell well this round.

would have been nice if the prx automatic dial remained the same as the quartz.

Oh how did you manage to find the rrp is around sgd 950? I google can only find the quartz price on tissot site, if sgd 950 then even after shipping and GST still works out to be around same price

np. congrats on your purchase.

reason why im holding back for now is i feel like wanna support my AD. (non rolex)
Early this year i did pop into a store to ask when would the prx automatic come in and was told probably towards the end of the year. If no rush to get it then i guess you would have some discount at a regular AD you frequent

hooted the new 239 from 3D, their price really not bad.

Was interested in 239 also but mainly for the strap, how does the strap feel and wear? Is it too thick?

Actually what is the different between 147 and 239 dial and bezel? The 147 gilt/gold color more prominent (blackbay-yish) while 239 is lighter yellow? Both dial is sunburst black?

I already have 143 but also eyeing for 213 or 239/147.
