The Watch Thread - Part 10

[gaoxing84]

idk sia, keep research then my goal shifted ........ nvm la ... the end game is the same ... go for end game better

There's no end game. Lol this is a wake up call.

but the skx007 is an iconic watch - even though it has the unwindable & unhackable 7s26 movement. waiting very impatiently for Seiko to change it to the windable & hackable 4r36 movement! for crying out loud, even the lower tier Seiko 5 series are already equipped with the 4r36 !@#$%^&*()_+

So iconic that no change is needed. Why fix something that is doing well?

boss, whats the height of the mm300 ah?

Bo measure leh but it's the thickest watch that I owned so far. Check online?

Re 7S26 versus 4R36, I personally don't really care for the hacking function. Handwinding is definitely useful if you like your watches running though, but I just let my watches run down these days.

K2 selling S$500+, but Mr Goh says he don't know when he will get the 2nd batch... his 1st batch already sold/pre-booked.

Seems reasonable for such a desirable watch..

吴師傅昨天賣掉的那一隻据了解。。。算是第三“批”了。。。
。。。东城發給K2每批都是“小龟两三只”，看来似乎有点。。。阴谋？

Siao liao, feel like selling my turtle and buy the sumo blue one ..... Worth it not? : ( going down to see tmr. Just hooted sia my god should have go and see first siao Liao

siao bo ??!! enjoy your watch first lah !! if really gian sumo, then wait a while and hoot for maybe as xmas, new year or CNY celebrations ...

enjoy then sell later .. now you sell , confirm lugi .. no matter you owned it 1 day , 1 month or 1 year .. second hand will be second hand .. selling price not much difference.. enjoy first and maybe sell later .. or better keep both as their design are poles apart .. if you are "chong tong pie" ... then next time always tell yourself, wear to try, think for 3 days .. ok .. still thinking then go buy ..

Hi,

I wish to buy A Daniel Wellington Watch. So far scan around Qoo10 for reputable store and streamlined into two: WatchSpree and JK Company.

However, two things Im confused:

1) It is one year warranty instead of two year which was listed on the DW webpage?
2) Need to bring back to shop for repair instead of any DW store worldwide (for WatchSpree) compare to JK Company where worldwide DW store for repair?

Any advise?

 

[indigo22]

Brightime, Visiotime, Chuan, Precision, HJ, KB Luxury...did i miss out any?

Hi indigo22,

Just curious, why is that then? DW bad quality? Reputation issue?

Apology, as im first time in this thread, hence no idea what is DW about...

I feel that DW is way overpriced for a cheap quartz movement. You're paying for all the "influencer"'s free watch and good marketing strategy.

For that price, better to go for an Orient Bambino.

But that's me la.

My humble 0.02c advice is look for better (not more exp) watches. Cheers.

DW watches are overpriced for what they are by considerable margins, and essentially you're paying for the marketing. You can have the same look with NATO straps and a "proper" watch, just remember to buy the NATO strap with the correct lug width for your watch.

Do note that some watches come with a less common size of lug width though.

The "Bin Laden" edition of Casio F91 is much better
