Our bro seat First Class lah...no danger :D

Personally i also don't wear them, I keep them in my watch case as easier for security check.

Is there really exposure of theft? :eek:

I would advise that if you are wearing an expensive watch, don't take it off your wrist when you are on a plane during a long haul flight. You don't know if anyone is watching you and may attempt to steal your watch while you sleep. If it's a short flight and you know you are going to be awake throughout, then no problem.

I won't even dare to wear an expensive watch overseas lol. However, if you're meeting alot of VIPs, then I can understand the need to have on a luxury watch

Nice! I plan to do this mod with the SNZH59. Who did you get this dial from? Yobokies or Dagaz?

Dagaz for usd 35 if I'm not wrong. Yobokies version of the fifty five fathom is abit different from dagaz, both of which is based on blancpain.

Delivery takes 3 weeks. Went to K2 and mod for 25 :)

Both Dagaz and Yobokies have the same (or almost same) FFF dials. The biggest difference is the lines on the bottom of the dial. Also, if you look at the two photos below, it seems like Yobokies' dial surface is matte, while Dagaz's dial surface has a radial brushed pattern.

I like to buy from both dagaz and harold. However, dagaz packaging is always much better so i will choose dagaz.

If want buy dome saphire crystal harold have more varities.

Just my humble opinion :)

Hmm. Never crossed my mind.

Perhaps I'll just not wear it until I land...

Yes, those wearing expensive Watches may be Watched by thieves... so be careful, even with overhead compartment. Here's a Straits Times article on possible ways they operate.

And while we're on the topic, better make sure you don't use these kind of luggages... especially they're going out of your sight for literally hours!

Watch from 0:40...

Whoa, that's GS pricing territory already!

The Spring drive tuna is very very poisonous, hope they can trickle down spring drive tech to lower end models in the future. But I think the normal tuna size is too big for me, I should be happy sticking to baby tuna. Maybe a baby darth tuna in the future?

I have a FFF dial and sapphire OTW to me from yobokies but not this design, it's the other one.

I will get this one from Dagaz next month.

Hahaha I will take that as a compliment talon

On a side note, does anyone own an isofrane strap?

I'm looking to get this expensive rubber compound strap and I would like to know what's the best width I should get for my 20mm lug width MM300 as some people claims that 22mm will be fit nicely within a 20mm lug width as the rubber is pretty soft.

It was a compliment ;)

Oh I didnt know Yobokies sells that now. Was implying that that he only sell the round indices one as show below when I asked him previously.

Anyway the sunburst one by Dagaz is much better!

Yup, planning to get Dagaz's sunburst one. More interesting compared to a simple matte dial. Thanks for your input!
