The Watch Thread - Part 12

[MrSenG]

wah, lucky to be poisoned by an even more expensive PP?!!!

bro MrSenG, you are loaded!

I wish. It's not really about the price, as what bro mpcdude said, it is about the movement and ultimately, the feeling.

I still feel I am not ready for dress watches yet, and fortunately, the ADs I have been to don't have the Aquanaut to complete the 'feeling', and I don't suppose I will be bumping into an Aquanaut (bro TRT, which line you take?) while riding the MRT, so the wallet is safe.

high 5...
uniqlo for e pants...
g2000 for their shirts...

But I don't like their materials hahaha!

If a 200 bucks suit from Bangkok makes you look better then maybe that's a good option

"Manners maketh man." -Harry Hart [Quoting William Horman], Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014)

I know someday I will get a tailored suit, and the cost often reflects the quality, but until then, the convenience and comfort of Uniqlo and G2000 is something I can settle for.

Who knows, I may get a JLC MUT to match a bespoke suit.

[BallGag]

Wonder what 'end game' watch for his 2nd 3rd 4th 5th bdays.. sounds like PP AP VC ALS...

Now having a "blast" resizing the bracelet.

How many turns does it take for you to unlock the crown ? Mine turns to winding position with barely a nudge; kind of worried I might have damaged the crown threads earlier.

bro Thai_Tak_Thai, it means you continue enjoying the quest for "end game" as a fulfilling journey rather than a destination.

i'm confident there'll be more nice watches in your life!

"End-game" reminds me of chewren time play football.

Forever saying "okok last goal liao, last goal then go home"

when u guys buy watches above 5 grand, how long do u hv to save up? April when my pay comes in, ill whack the omega deville liao.. cannot resist... My tissot titanium has been w me for over a year but kinda bored of wearing the same old watch..

hmmm i don't usually save up for watches... if i have enough $$, i will still think and think and think before hooting.

but if i really like a particular watch, i will go test out on the wrist and see if it sings to me... otherwise, it's money saved. haha.

got enough watches for now liao. no need to think so much... come in here ssrr and gxgx dai gors who buy new watches can liao. happy already.

Some of Seiko's bracelet are more challenging to resize. Especially those with the "side collar" and pin. Snowflake's is the "middle collar" and pin, not as difficult. Some of the SS bracelets are using screws and pins which is much easier.

Mine takes 2.5 turns to unlock crown.

Enjoy the Snowflake in tropical Singapore!
