Enjoying an excellent book while on a 1 hour train ride from Boon Lay to Tampines to pick up a new piece.
Btw, how would you compare Pelagos to 114060? Just wanted to hear from someone who has both. :) I know they're not really the same.

Pelagos wears quite a big larger and thicker but slightly lighter. In terms of comfort, both are very comfortable but the Sub is more comfy due to the glidelock. Also the Pelagos is more toolish and subdued compared to the Sub which stands out more and has more presence on the wrist.

I think I will try to find a time to see the watch in person. Pictures can be very deceiving.

Whatever the case, I'm definitely hanging onto my Pelagos, hehe.

yes it does. Normally comes with blue AR coating.
Do call him to check with him if got stock.. cos not always have.

And yes he does bezel insert change too.. and just to pre empt other questions

K2 Does the following mod services for SKX/ Turtle
  • Caseback Change
  • Dial Change
  • Hands Change
  • Bezel Change
  • Bezel Insert Change
  • Chapter Ring Change
  • Crystal Change
  • etc

Mr Goh normally does NOT stock any mod parts (except for sapphire crystals..sometimes) so you have to bring YOUR OWN mod parts.

It is the super affordable but nevertheless amazing looking Seiko FFF homage. Got it brand new with bracelet but took it off as i want to mount it on a strap. Thinking of a sailcloth strap. Love the domed crystal and the subtle charcoal sunburst-finish of the dial. Was surprised by how good it looks like in the flesh.
Did not want to buy a watch before getting the Speedy Tuesday but alas, hand too itchy.





Happy hump-day peeps!

a book?! an actual book! wah, so retro, so tactile. so analog. not many people read books now. i picture you more as an e-reader kind of guy (kindle, etc). :D

Really liking this mod so far!

Hehe after owning this, the real thing has popped up in my head more times than I can imagine. And regarding the book, yes. I much prefer reading and holding a physical book as opposed to a digital one.

The thing holding me back on the real deal is the size and thickness.
