^ i got a feeling, those who can afford RM, will never want to take a train.

why?

they can afford a car and places they stay will be far from public transport.
so must as well drive, even to the market. they can take their maid's car.
carpark cost and petrol won't be a issue.

hell, even commoners don't like to take a train.

if you're born rich, your parents buy you a car, why take a train?
if you strike rich, you can afford to drive, why take a train? i strike rich for a reason, to break out out of the proverty/commoner cycle. i am here now, why should i take a train? drive la. why suffer. lol
this is the mentality of humans.

as for yatto boss, he take train because he can see girls and his car is being used by parents or wife. that's why.

but i could be wrong, that guy could be the 0.01% of the one that likes to take a train.
or a tourist.
i got feeling tourist. haha

Take car and nobody will notice his watch.

Take public transport and many will.

Depends on the persons intentions. Simple.

yes I find driving in sg a torture. for the record I've had y license for 20 years and had my own car (with my own money) for 18years. for the first few years that was my mentality. go anywhere also drive.

people simply refuse to let you cut into their lanes despite you signalling. so end up most dont signal. if they signal I do let them filter in. i wun lose a limb anyway and he could be in a rush/emergency.
hogging the right lane - and when you try to overtake them on the right they speed up again. if someone tailgates me i just let them pass by filtering out. same reason as above. it doesn't make me a lesser human or whatever.
Traffic jams.
parking.
I can go on and on.

public transport is my choice if i can. just stone and zone out. can surf this forum. can chat with frens on fone. read manga online. watch youtube. FB, twtr, IG......on and on.
(see girls is a bonus. anyway my folks have their own car. wife refuses to drive our current car)

sometimes taking public transport really is more convenient. in fact I take it to work everyday if I can. driving is really a hassle. maybe I am jaded after all these years already.

Hi guys. How easy is it to service a selita movement? Narrowing down my choice to oris sixty five n longines hydroconquest. Both dont use eta mvmt. Seeing that i'm intending to keep the watch for a long time, can both these mvmts b easily serviced?

There are actually a number of people whom share your mentality about this.

Given a choice right here and now i'd rather take public transport or have a personal chauffeur over driving but i digress, maybe im just a new driver and find the roads too unforgiving for my taste.

在构造上,Sw200与2824并没有太大的分别,可说是公认的"合法"克隆机芯。唯一区别只是一粒宝石而已。
要论保修,Swatch集团的统一维修中心不时会有人传出其服务态度会因品牌阶级之分而有差。。。这还是需要这帖的錶友来证实了。。。

Hi, which Longines model you are looking for? I believe Longines no have sellita model.
And yes, Oris using sellita, and the sellita movement design is the same with eta, just slightly different on the durable. (sellita movement start from 2003, eta 2824 start from 1970)
