The Watch Thread - Part 10

[TeenTitan01]

Yep, both students, but quite different.

the impatient one will amount to much.
the travelled one will not amount to anything, but will continue to be a part-time car valet.
just you wait!

Ok back to watches... does anyone have any hands-on experience with Magrette watches?

[TeenTitan01]

Thanks bros, I'm all setup for my next shot. My cam is mounted on tripod, table lamp, reflectors all ready...has fired quite many test shots already and waiting for 10:10 for the actual shot.

[TeenTitan01]

TGIF!

I have not seen the blue one in person. Looks lovely from the pics too. I probably would face the same dilemma then if given the same options!

May I ask how much is this Zenith?

too bad I'm a sucker for the omega 2254.50, so end up paying 2k for watch with an eta 2892-A2 movement.

if its in house movement it would cost much more. the 2k also includes for the brand design materials marketing etc...

to me a good movement is one that is accurate and reliable.

 

[a562140]

another day with my dark knight

the prices for this is intriguing on carousell. new around 11K used around 11K ....

Thanks for chipping in on this. SAS watches seems nice too but just a tad more expensive than Magrette. I guess that's reasonable considering they use ETA movements.

I think Miyota/Seiko NH movements has filled the void as the common movement used for micro brand watches. For mainstream brands, I would say that Sellita plays that role.

true that about SW in luxury watches to fuflil the swiss-made ideal.

not to say that magrette does not, but sas has very thoughtful extra engineering designed into watch that you would normally find on the bigger watches. real value add beyond just cosmetics.

Any thoughts on Seiko Astron vs Casio Oceanus vs Citizen Eco-Drive Satellite Wave?
