Black buddy? u mean SBDX013?

Big time selling it around 3.9k now from 3.7k previously. Funny how it's the same pricing as the black buddy else turn to Carousell. Cheapest is around 3.5k? Bought mine at a special price and was once the cheapest lol

 

[arc13]

Charged by Jap bank?

The 3.25% is from the bank. Every time swipe overseas...there will be an additional charge.

which blushark collection to go for? the luxury ones?

 

[info_guy]

ok, random question.

let's say you strike toto big time, you're looking to buy your 1 dream watch locally.

would you

1) go to actual boutique (usually no discount), for full boutique experience (champagne and other stuff)
2) go to a AD (slight discount), for some sort of experience (maybe champagne?)
3) go to a grey dealer and maximise the discounts you can get (at the same time using the savings to maybe have a good meal or whatever).

don't talk about creating relationships because all 3 does the same thing.

share your thoughts.

If I plan to build up a hobby in watches, I'd go for 1. The services provided go beyond just the services rendered at the boutique. There's the auto queue service for new watches, free magazines, invitations to watch launches and etc.

If I'm just planning to get one watch for e rest of my life, I'll just go grey.
