Anyone can advise what is the usual rate those watch shops uncles will charge to help change the watch strap ( i already have my own watch strap; not purchasing fr them) I find it tough to change the strap even though I have a tool bought fr Qoo10...thinking of just outsource but don't want to become a chopping carrot...

If you pay them they will probably do it.

Just do it, i change my strip myself with a spectacle screw driver. If you worried about scratch the back of the watch, cover the strap opening with masking tape first.

Not easy to put it back. I got someone to do it because I don't want to ruin a nice watch, if you are confident yes go ahead!

Yeah, I seconded that, just do it yourself. It's pretty easy.
Replacing the new strap is even easier, just use your finger nails will do

Finally got my Etsy Gordan hand-made strap fixed to my moto at an old-school watch uncle shop at AMK central near AMK Hub.. damage = $2.

Very happy with how the watch looks right now, love the solid leather feel unlike the moto default one.

For those willing to invest in a good quality leather strap, this is worth it, the seller customise every details up to your liking, including the length, the size and color of the strap buckle, stitch color etc.

Anyone ordered the Metal Band on at 299USD from Amazon? Did you all get charged GST? Its a bit borderline with the current exchange rates.

Ah OK. When you get it can you just advise whether the postman ask you for the 7% GST. Cause sometimes even when Amazon nvr charge the tax amt the postman will ask you to pay if custom collects it.
