because they "are prepared to work like hell"

if liddat the bangla can sell a piece of tur kwa (pig's liver) as foie gras (atas overfed goose/duck liver) liao..

Ya I will choose display caseback which includes solid caseback and it is still good price
But purists would stick with solid caseback heh

Need to add 24 Euro for display caseback. Would be a shame not to see the ST19. I think it's not too shabby for the price.

If watch itself good I don't mind poor comms

And from what I've seen, replies are fast when you want to buy. After that communication is very laggy.

Ya saw the warning but I reckon nothing major negative or else the blogger would have removed the weblink



Have doubt initially vs 42mm but decided 38mm is more original
Bezel for acrylic crystal different from sapphire too



Thx 1 of each nationality pls

yup, nothing beats the acrylic "box" crystal that's true to the original to give the more desirable purist distortion of the dial when viewed at certain angles. no sapphire glass can achieve that profile. nor the warm optics of plastic.

42mm diameter watches with thin bezels that are "all-dial" is, frankly, a monstrosity and a disaster, as it's way out of proportion. it's a vestige of the distasteful oversized watch insanity of the past decade, that was clearly used to compensate for a small penis. ok there. i said it.

quite wu hua at less than S$300 for solid caseback only.

if do MO, still pay one delivery fee?

no option for just display caseback only, right?

also, wonder if they will also provide any box/tin?

For watchunique, there have been some cases were people receive faulty watches and don't get any follow up for a long time. Can check in WUS.

 

[arc13]

Not sure abt sharing delivery fee but can try ordering 2 watches and check

Ya only 2 options: solid caseback or display with solid casebacks

Packaging not sure haha

really bulls!t ttm lah! so fake!

needs 2 yrs to gather feedback? they smoke the very dope they're pushing ah?

they don't even need to copy an already deplorable brand that ripped off established designs.

they just buy cheap, ready-made, off the shelf parts from china, laser their own logo on a plain case back, mix and match cheap straps & flog them off to the clueless.

A couple more variants:

Not forgetting pigu:

Saw panda with blue hands in WUS forums also, so I think Ed can produce those combis as well.

thanks for posting the pics of the seagull 1963, bro cyrenic & bro DiCaprio!

shat just got real!

don't be surprised if you're attacked by their fans/supporters.

but i doubt the ginna-pis will bother much.
first, their lack of appreciation of horology.
last, their lack of cash.

Lolol. You see their reply, a giant smokescreen.

Yar, I personally think it's best to get from a reliable and responsive source. If you look at Watchuseek, most people are recommending to get from Ed, because aftersale service is good. But of course he does have a premium over Watchunique..

Long Island Watch is also reliable, but his price is even more expensive..
