Obviously I don't really care la. Just find it funny that buying a few old watches means you very satki, very patient, very great in some way. No harm expressing my opinion that that attitude makes you a rotten person no?

I won't troll LWT if he didn't think IWC is the answer to everything. In this case, it's being replaced with Rolex Vintage. Not that much better. Just a matter of money and time and desire.

How is doing this any different from someone in a big car and living in landed going around and saying that "aiyo these HDB peasants have to squeeze in train, just need to work hard and be patient someday you'll be me?" That's my question. I certainly hope we don't give each other passes to be more arrogant and flippant if your watch collection more "prized".

Anyways I suppose you know him so I'll let it be. Easy to put someone on ignore list. If someone needs to jerk himself off by putting others' choices down, it's a sad sad life.

Pls la.
Obviously affected.

Your emotions say so.

No need to keep playing victim dear.. from personal attacks to now accusing me of marginalising HDB owners and looking down on the 90% of us who take public transport? Thats too low handed.

Remember i already apologised earlier?

Its all about watches here.
Nothing personal.

拿Steinhart来与Tisell对比，实在不易评。
摆开两款28800频率机芯不说，将焦点放在工质，车工，一分钱一分货也就显而易见了。

真要比，应该拿Tisell与市面上其它平价致敬錶款来比。如有机会，你拿Tisell与Parnis来对比，或者就能辨出一二，看出Tisell如何物有所值了。

I thought Parnis is usually cheaper than Tisell. But ofc I don't know price of their Rolex homages.

Hmmm my understanding of where Tisell stands is steinhart>tisell>parnis. Affirms my thinking

Definitely steinhart better. If steinhart lose, they really need to rethink their strategy

 

[DXMachina]

Although Steinhart may not be everyone's cup of tea, you gotta admit that they are brilliant in their business strategy of catering to a very real need in the market - watch hobbyists who may not be able/willing to pay for "the real deal", and I use this term very loosely.

End of the day, a watch is just an accessory, albeit an important one that allows us guys to express ourselves through, since our accessory range is limited compared to ladies. As long as it's not a fake (or a DW ), I think we can all take pride in our choice of watches. Happy can liao.

 

[Ed.YEO]

无论是Parnis，还是Tisell，这些都是大陆大量生产的＂致敬錶款＂。唯一的区别就在于贴上什么品牌，整体上还有什么加值的加工，不同的配置。。。

这样的生产＂文化＂不是大陆独有的，就连欧洲也那么搞。。。
看看Davosa与Squale就能发觉同样之处了。

a proper camera phone really brings out the beauty of a watch...

... today is seamaster tuesday!

 

[Ga Li Kong]

On a side note, is anyone doing the 10km challenge. Damn gaowei sia

We are all watch lovers here. I may not like a Speedy but I can appreciate what it is. You'd never catch me posting a Pelagos photo and talk about how much tougher it is than a Speedmaster, or how I find modded Seikos with snowflake hands unoriginal and ugly. Or that it's extremely well regulated cough cough. Because I don't need to feel like my watch is better than other watches - I like it for what it is. And that's what I mean by secure in my choice.

Always enjoy wearing my Ocean One Legacy. It's a good execution and the domed sapphire is extremely interesting.

Ya. My wife show me her makeup, I tell her all look the same. I show her my watches, she say all look the same.

So true, still got simi Etoot House and stuff..

To us guys, the only ladies "accessories" that matter are the lai sah and lai kor, all else not impt.

Still find the hesalite of the Speedy to be the most captivating..never gets old.
