The Watch Thread - Part 10

[DXMachina]

ownself feel shiok is most important!

don't let your speedy be a safe queen & keep it mint for the next owner - wear it in good health always, bro DXMachina!

Thank you bro TT01.

Can't see myself ever selling the Speedy off, so will be going through the inevitable phases of scratches, dings down the road etc.

Why is it highly favoured amongst the recent versions?
PM me with your price.

Maybe when I'm 40 or 50? Don't earn enough to be able to afford and maintain such a expensive time piece.

This might get handed down to me but not looking forward to it anyway.[/QUOTE]

Black dial and correct printing 200m rating compared to 5517 rolex. But the watch itself is rated 300m. So there's a print error.
No extra liner of Ocean one below the steinhart logo. Cleaner look.

people hoot watches, i can only hoot tuna

哎哟。。。師兄。你的不是菲律宾鲔鱼咧。。。如果你拍泰国罐头鲔鱼还差不多。

 

[Ed.YEO]

I rarely like gold stuffs, but this is niceeee!

Ya lor, i thot was Ed Yeo too... Lol!

昨晚找了錶铺经理玩我那新到的全日历石英錶款，搞了将近一個钟头才发觉那只錶并没有闹钟，而是经理讲的minute repeter喔！

reflections of an old friend...

just like an old friend...
you know what it takes to wind them down after a long week (or in my case, exactly 38 winds to wind it UP),
absolute PITA (to adjust the time) sometimes,
but still you risk (wrist) your lives for these buggers...

birth year watch by any chance?

 

[TeenTitan01]

The amount of new hoots and new watches need to maintain ahhhhhhh lolol

is it because of GST voucher thats why haha

You mean that GST vouchers is enough to purchase those watches?!?

no gst voucher means what?

 

[TeenTitan01]

Ya man the amount of new hoots.. Damn poisonous...

Compared to poor souls like me, need to sell watches.. Yesterday night showed some TLC to these watches that i'm letting go

Spoiler

that's a good selection there.

what are you planning to replace them?

 

[TeenTitan01]

Any love for Tudor?

no offense, but I like the pelagos ver 1.0 dial for the following reasons:

1. lume pip at 3 o'clock.
2. cleaner dial: not bottom heavy with 5 liner text.

pelagos 2.0 has the advantage of:

1. in-house movement.
2. 70 hours power reserve!

 

[TeenTitan01]

Someone photoshopped this on WUS... Not bad hor...

still prefer you gold-accented MM 50th anniversary LE.

 

[babychimz]

Short term looking at oris 65 diver or mm300..

that's a good selection there.

what are you planning to replace them?

Started my weekend yesterday learning how to read the time off my watch. Lol.

thought i saw EdYeo's shadows in ur post

這只比較特別！石英24小時非常少見。外框上刻有“新加坡”縮寫更是難見！！！

梅花的“鄭和”限量版也沒有以上的石英表款來得特別。。。

I rarely like gold stuffs, but this is niceeee!

Ya lor, i thot was Ed Yeo too... Lol!

[/SPOILER]

哦是hor... 你不说也真没注意到“新加坡”縮寫wor...

Thank you for your kind words, everyone. I got this watch second hand from my colleague. He would very glad to hear his pre-loved watch is getting lots of love from fellow watch-lovers and passionate watch enthusiasts today.

一隻錶能夠獲得多少注意，如果往往只是落在品牌有多高級還是響亮。。。就膚淺了。
看錶除了叫得出品牌之外，我認為比較重要的，目光應該落在外表設計，還是機芯有多麼特別。師兄可算是撿到“二手寶”囖！！！

current damage for aluminium pepsi bezel gmt master II $8,000 in the 2nd shops...

 

[TeenTitan01]

Is there any movement to avoid for this model?

either choice of automatic chronometer grade omega calibre 1120 (modified from ETA 2892-A2) or the quartz version is good.

i prefer the automatic version.
