The Watch Thread - Part 12

Yeah !

Might get a FOIS

FOIS is freaking nice. Only thing holding me back is the sapphire crystal. I prefer a hesalite on a Speedy. But that's just me personally.

I think divers are not meant for you.
You prefer slim profile.
FOIS is quite nice but I think speedytuesday will look really good when you wear suit for work. For afaik you, you do wear suits for work.

Yeah I totally missed the boat on the Speedy Tuesday reservations

Oh definitely, I prefer hesalite too. I've heard nothing but good things about the crystal on the FOIS though.

Same here, there's just something about hesalite that brings warmth to the dial.

Been looking out for a chrono for sometime and managed to find time to check these 2 IWC chronos at DFS before my flight. Black dial is sgd7.9k+, blue dial is sgd8.4k+

The chronos buttons are a bit stiff. Is it normal for Valjoux 7750 movement?

I think this IWC is 43mm, not too big on my wrist right?

Nope it doesn't.

An Everest rubber strap for my sub is $230 liao. $340 for a Patek strap is ok i guess.

Hello bros, quite new to this watch thread and have been lurking around looking at wonderful watches posted here.

Just bought my first 'real' watch although its nothing special but I really like the look of Diver watches and since my budget was limited, this will have to do. Some pictures

My 7750 also very stiff. Should be normal.
Do take note when setting 7750. I think cannot change date / day between 6pm - 12am if not will stuck
