Matching? Love this orient star!

this is their best one : white dial and blue hands and what i find the perfect size for a dress watch. the blue hands in the right light (like your pic) adds that little zing too.

the orient star somes limited edition gen 1 (non-skeleton) comes a close second to me.

My fav GS! :love:



Looks damn good and chunky!! How thick is it ah?

It's 16.6mm thick.
I'm interested to see how it compares to the Deepsea which I think it's even bigger.

I've just sent the OS300 for servicing this afternoon, will do the comparison with my friend's Deespsea 2, 3 months later when the OS is back.

Damn son, what you all do for money wan

For me, it's just about saving strategically. You don't have to be super rich to afford a high-end watch. Just save and be patient. Sooner or later, the watch you've always lusted for will be yours! :)

Took me close to a year! And it's also finding good deals/discounts so that you don't need to save as much. Bought this particular BLNR in HK(which I highly recommend if you want to buy a Rolex) BNIB at AD for only 11.1k after discounts.

Regarding the allowance, of course it shortens the saving time if you have a bigger allowance. But no matter the amount, I just save as I know I'll get there eventually. Or rather that's just my take.
