Where u guys order the watch and deliver to SG directly?

Thanks.

you can order from:
1. Google Play Store (pay directly) and ship to your local US address
2. Bestbuy (pay using forwarder) and ship to your local US address
3. Can wait for listing on Amazon (cheapest way)
4. Lot of people selling around 380-400 on HWZ/Carousell, etc

Forwarders you can use: hopshopgo, comgateway, vpost, etc.

Just received my moto360 on Sunday.. order from bestbuy via CGW buy for me ... ordered on Sunday, received 1 week later on sunday. swi..

have a couple of questions... if some of us can help to advise..
1. do we really need a screen protector? i thought this is corning gorilla glass? should be scratch proof? or is the protector more for preventing finger prints?
2. When you are streaming music from phone ..say to a bluetooth sound system, there is a small peek card showing the song artist name with a pause/play button. how do you disable that? it is annoying as it blocks the watch face all the time and cannot be swiped off.. i tried blocking the music app.. does not work, though muting all notifications work, but thats not ideal.
3. When using Facer, i realised some watch faces can show the wrong time. The time was 355pm but the watch showing 255 (short hand at 3 mid point and not even near 4 or leaving 3 at all) I had an whatsapp notification coming in and after i swipe to read.. the watch shows 355 correctly again.
Anyone had that issue?
THank you all ! truly a great smartwatch!

1. Better safe than sorry.
2. You can't swipe it off. But you can swipe it down to hide it.
3. Haven't encountered such an issue with the Facer watch faces that I've been using so far.

Screen protector's usefulness differs from one person to another. Yes, gorilla glass prevents scratch from most metal objects that you would come across, but certain walls or sands contain minerals that might be harder than corning gorilla glass 3.

Think of it this way, if you are going to expose your moto 360 to environments you wouldn't use you phone in, then it's probably better to get a screen protector. Then again, it doesn't make much sense to use tech products in harsh environments (such as construction sites, factories etc.). If you're going to use it in indoors and general public environments (office, bus stops, train stations, town etc), then screen protector is not that important. It also depends on your plans with the watch.

Again, I have to say that the usefulness is subjective. I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 phone that I have used for more than 3 years, and there's not a single scratch on the screen. Personally, I wouldn't put on a screen protector since it dims the already slightly unimpressive display. The watch is also small and easy to wipe, so finger prints are not a problem.

THANK YOU both for your advise and reply.

found out some of the face, the ambient feature is not working. It does not light up in dim face.
