基本上，精工的自动机械机芯，如果上满链，一般上的续航能力可以到36小时，一天半那么就。
但是机芯有别，如果你的是7Sxx(25,26,35,36)，是没有得手动上簧。那么也就容易不能达到标准续航能力。
如果你的是4Rxx(35,36,37,38)，你是可以通过搅动錶冠上簧的。。。那么也就不必担心是否会停的。

Hotdogs!!!! Hold my gad!!!!

Jon still waiting for your stowa photos. How long you waited for them to deliver the watch?

Longines good or not? Well... what kind of watch are you looking at? As a gift? Or for ownself as a reward?

If it's my wife... she would want me to wear Longinea and instantly become 彭于晏 Eddie peng

No matter good friend or not, that is not suitable to suan lai this type and feel that it is over already.
But I believe they r not a good friend, coz they got asking contact number on the previous post.

To me I strongly believe little suan is for fun, over suan become fighting and also no health for us who are reading the post.

Let me share an interesting story: What if I tell you high end watches are also 'hot items' for money laundering/bribery/smuggling money across boarders?

These watches do not cater to common working folks. They cater to another category of people that the real police should be after.

Yes, I believe it's not a good idea to troll so much here as I believe there are grey dealers here advertising their watches here to attract customers. And the saying goes 'When money is involve, shXt will hit the fan'

Lastly, anyone can claim anything without proof online. AFAIK 904 steel is about 3X more expensive than 314 steel so it doesn't make financial sense to make reps out of them. But with advanced technology in China and their steelmills churning out steel with so much inventory like no tomorrow I maybe wrong...

This is the most interesting thread to me other than the leather thread in HWZ so I hope this thread stays as long as possible :)

Have a great day ahead everyone!

Using watches a laundering? That would be an interesting topic....

Anyway... afaik grey dealers advertising here not allowed, usually auto directed to the marketplace... usually people would ask questions like:
- where to buy ABC XYZ brand watch cheapest?
- how much discount can I get for XHFHE brand or model

And lastly, if we ever received special discounts, exclusive rebates, or non official discount, for a particular watch we bought, we don't discuss it openly here. I ts always "PM me" or " let's take it offline"

I vaguely remembered not too long ago... a fellow watch lover here tio a response from Rolex Singapore asking him to remove a comment he posted here about some special discounts for Tudor North flag... which were not official at all...

Seannie... you're referring to your tudor bbb right?

For eta movt, servicing is recommended by Rolex usually every 5 yrs. But since you just sent in for calibration, if you don't see anything wrong in the next 5 yrs time, then there's no need to send in

From here on, most important will be how you handle your watch day-to-day, especially the winding crown

Just forget it and if he again suaning u, pls just ignore him... If u no reply him I believe he will not suan u again.

For official recommended it will 3-5 years for the service. But to me I will send my watch until really needed, coz a lot of watch repair master said before, "watch mostly is fault by junior watchmaker"... So we dunno our watch is give to who to service.

But this not for Rolex, I quite less heard ppl complain about this.
