The price is very attractive. Is it ok to buy from them? What about other online like Chrono24, Amazon, etc.?

Thanks you for the patience reading this.

Jomashop is ok?

The Fortis Cockpit One that I really like is relatively cheap there, even with GST.

Further Qs:
1) What is the reasonable price range for Quartz watch?

2) Any warranty issue if buy online or non-authorised shops?

Never bought from them before... But yes, might need to pay GST, so do add that into your computations. I second molecule's view that paying so much for Quartz is boh hua. But if you really really like the design and you are ok with quartz then just get what you like la. It's just a pity to be paying such a huge sum for marketing and design though, since the quartz movement being used inside is probably going to be really cheap.

Amazon is quite ok, their customer service damn good - but I've never bought a watch from them. I've purchased a Pebble and it arrived DOA. They gave me a partial refund and paid me to ship it back.

If you've read the book Amazon Way, their leaders REALLY put the customers first. I've always had an amazing experience. I once picked up a Chromebook on offer for 120 USD. There was some delay in shipping as they ran out of stock - when I asked about an estimated timing, the customer service officer just reduced it to 50 USD, and upgraded me to expedited shipping when stock arrived. That was a good day.

Most watch enthusiasts will go for automatic movements. Watches have many faucets.. Movement is just one, there's design, branding, features, to name a few.

For warranty, depends on the online shop as well as company policy. There are online shops that are overseas ADs and offer international warranty, which the local service center will honour. Then some service centers don't honour... Some online shops don't give brand warranty, only shop warranty. The problem is that if they close shop, then you have to pay the service center, or an independent repairman to work on it.
