sellita is the new ETA. and everyone accepts ETA in high end watches. so maybe time to get over it.

Maybe Eterna might be the new King when it makes Caliber 39 available to the masses. Afterall, ETA was founded by Eterna before being owned by Swatch Group.

F-f-f-fake it till you m-m-m-make it...

I'll prefer to wear a genuine Seiko than a fake PAM, AP or Rolex.

Yeah that's my cap but I can't find nice 2nd ones. If Oris those I can reduce Budget to 2k. But he post 2k for speedy that's why I asking haha

PS: Actually I don't really like 2nd hand things, I would rather get others for first hand, just my habit. Haha

 

[iV3RsOn]

Nope I haven't haha. They are better than Oris?

steinhart abit on the micro brand side. might not suit u

I see, Guess I'm sticking back to Oris. A question, isit possible for the shop to sell steel bracket if the original comes with rubber/leather..?

steinhart is a german microbrand but their watches are manufactured in switzerland.
their watches are quite affordable and bold looking imo.

can try this if looking for seamaster within 4-5k. but not sure if legit or not

its all relative on how much cash you perceive you have to burn in your lifetime.

also it depends on how many watches you have - just search out pwillie's posts from this and earlier threads.

Wei Wei Wei.. Don't single me out for my bad spending habits
I know I YOLO too much

My latest watch purchase in 2015. Omega speedy reduced. The size is just right for my 6.3inch wrist. Loving it.

Yup I don't like 2nd hand things. Same goes for my PC parts and IT things, never 2nd hand as the feelings not right. Imo if no ability to own it as first hand then no point, but that's just me. I would rather buy a first hand Jap sedan than a 5 years Conti.

Yes that's what I'm thinking too, taking a step into Oris/Seiko instead of going Omega or Tudor, I know my limits. That 2k I can use to pay my road tax for 2-3 years hahaha

 

[pwillie]

That one I checked out, the design abit vintage to my liking. I want something in steel strap and bold looking haha

You know which Oris model good on the bod design?

Just get Tag F1, since you want to have the most bang on your buck based on branding recognition.
