Do you mean taping over the lugs?

I just put tape on the lugs when changing, just in case.. Drilled lugs not so necessary to do so when taking out, cos of the holes, only when putting back in. If no drill hole then have to put when taking out or putting back in, haha.

Masking tape cos very easy to tear, lol.

Love to do this too but yeah, budget is one thing, having more than a few timepieces will result in little wrist time.

I am one who wears the watches and for a few years at least (my current speedy is 5 years+ old)...and my wallet is definitely not flipper-friendly! :s13:

Me too, wear pilot every weekday hardly rotary with another longines but in the end hoot exp means that pilot will sleep in the box liao, haha

Still same advice will ask u save a bit to get the pilot since this omega secondhand value quite low, better keep it.

And this 3777 model already discon what? R u looking preown?

無論是Fedex還是DHL,都是肯定會被抽稅的。
以我之前買過C.Ward錶的經驗來看,是否會被抽稅的機率,就要看運氣了。
基本上,C.Ward是採用當地郵局運送直到機場,再由機場物流公司與本地物流商協調採用本地物流服務送到你手上。。。。也就是SpeedPost啦。

If is speed post have to suck thumb and give in to the GST lor

Does this site seem legit to you guys? They have a physical shop based in Saitama, Japan. They have a Facebook as well with 10.9k likes and is a Chrono24 trusted seller. I've also had some pleasant exchanges with the owner through email. Thinking of ordering a GS from them.

I actually dunno what is the market value of my speedy...dun see much of it on SWX or Carousell...

I am looking at pre-owned coz it'd be a "like for like" replace, if you know wad I mean...:s13:

And a 377701 instead of the new 377709 becoz....


Juergen Klopp's wearing one! :s13:

Haha... I know what u means... lol
for what I know this omega trade-in value should be around 1.5k or less, unless u selling individual and if u want to more accurate can ask guru gaoxing. He is professional on preown market.

For my personally I like the old 3777 date design:D

要看你指的是怎樣的機芯了。。。
以一般的三針機芯規格來計算,無論是eta28xx,還是sellitas sw2/3xx,a.schild s280,stp1-11,精工4r/7s##,星辰miyota 8xxx,平均續航時間為36小時(雖然瑞士機芯一般規格都咧名為38小時。。。)。

至於一些有附加功能,如,計時功能的7750/1/3/4,sw500 機芯的一般平均續航時間為40小時(雖然規格上咧名為42小時)。精工機械計時機芯我如果沒記錯,似乎是足足兩天。

特殊機芯如 hamilton pameuro,powermatic80,sistem51,chrisward sh21,就各為,60,80,90,120小時。
