haha no la just jesting with gx84.

any thoughts on the steinhart ovm mk2.5? good price @ 650 but got a feeling mk3 will have even darker dial

and yeah saw babychimz posting on carouhell

Haha it is carouhell indeed... but it gets the job done! just gotta be patient and hold out for the sincere buyers...

on the ovm, it does look like a mk3 will eventually come out, whether it will have an even darker grey dial or maybe black dial with some tweaks not sure...

had some spare time now and was going through old photos of past watch gatherings...

That croc strap on the seiko looks good. Probbaly the same price or more expensive than the watch itself? Where can I get that blue dial?

The blue dial in the pic is still the original Seiko5 dial. After FFF mod becomes like this

The 2 pics are different watches, just that they have similar straps.

lolololol. the description on gnomon is abit cryptic..

The latest Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military MK2.5 has a slightly darker dial compared to the MK2 which is more greyish. While it is still not black but has a darker grey dial with a slight grain to it compared to the MK2. This might just be a one off model. So grab them while they are still available.

lolololol. the description on gnomon is abit cryptic..

LOL the description, sounds like they just trying to clear inventory and ran out of mk2 dials, decided to get a few of these darker grey ones to clear stock haha

ytd went to see see the bambino watch at bencoolen..

$234.. expecting $150+ lol

Demand much higher than supply is like that one..

You can consider online retailers lor, but Bigtime will charge you if need repairs. Or you can go back to them. Creationwatch, etc.

But no $150 la. Best price I've seen is $170-$180.

Where did you get that strap from? Looking for bright blue strap like yours and the one in the pic that does not burn a hole in the wallet

 

[trashley]

i remembered someone saying that they love their logo so much they have to put it on the dial twice. haha

but hey, to each of its own man. haha

wah. you remembered what i said. jin touched.

 

[cichlid]

Wana wear other watch but all "no battery" liao, so just grab this again :lol:

so sorry this watch thread also partly to blame at the peak of the Bambino wave in 2014 to early 2015, people here hooted an average 2 bambino per week

$150 was the 2014 to early 2015 pricing, after discount
with its current 234 pricing, even if the shop give you 20-30%, its still back to its 2014 pricing (before discounts)

there should still have some watch shops in China town which never really increase the price much... can try people's park complex and Bras basah

Still worth it at the price of $170.
