The Watch Thread - Part 10

[lalaRaeka]

Again, not sure which features are important to your "ah Lao"
But if you are looking at similar depth WR. It ranges from Rolex sea dweller to Seiko SBEX001 to aquadive watches
And I hope your ah Lao likes big watches cos this is common among deep divers

actually he's not a deep diver, WR depth is not priority
Seiko 1000m is super overkill haha..
Rolex design is similar to NEDU but price is double!

What's your budget, your ah lao wrist how thick?

i thought NEDU seems a bit big for his wrist liao but he like big watches leh
so I'm looking at similar watchface size

if really cannot find similar ones to compare, then.. ok lo NEDU, confirm safe

Need to know your budget first.

Edit:
3k and below seiko
5k omega, tudor
10k and below rolex, pam

Adventurous look at sinn, iwc, grand seiko, jlc

Need to know your budget first.

sweet spot will be similar to NEDU's, between 5-7K, below or above that is fine.
Just ideally not reaching 10K range

5k to 7k is already at omega already.
You want complicated dial can look at speed master professional from omega. Definitely holds value better than ball. More historically significant than ball. More timeless than ball too.

If you want chunky, can look at base pam such as pam 0. Also within your budget. Current hot stuff would be Tudor blackbay. Lots of members here used to own or own one.

really depends on what you deem is nice. do you need a dress watch? sports watch? regardless go for the look first, something that fits your needs. then tell us your budget.

just keep scrolling through this watch sales site. then let us know the top few you like and why:

Big chunky watches. You can check out breitling also.

For big watch I think breitling more worth it than ball.

Aviator heritage. Chronomat quite nice

由于采用eterna第一代自家芯，會粉贵哟！！！
