@tt01 my girl likes thing simple eh. Nothing too blingy hahaha. Having said that, she showed me an open heart Hamilton that she's interested in...

@indigo I think too big for her. She wants to have it between 36-38mm

Take a look at this Orient. 36 mm open heart. But not very thin.

Cool find: BNIB! Orient Automatic Open Heart Happy Stream Collection DB0A009D Watch for S$190 http://carousell.com/p/84944965

谢谢指点。这牌子店家通常能打机折？

折扣很紧。。。要看你跟錶鋪经理关系如何。据我了解，一般上都是大概扣两成。＂大概＂呀！
我能给你最好的建议是，先去mustafa探价，再去其他錶鋪谈价。这样你或者能够拿到比一般较高的折扣。。。（去 a＆w 啦。。。至少他们的武吉士还有牛车水分店店租没那麽高。。。）

再不，就耐心等待高级錶鋪推出的年度大减价喽。。。

Thanks for all your feedback! Wanna quote everybody in one post but my GAGT hang -.- so I'm just gonna summarize everyone's suggestion

Anyway to sum up the choices are swatch sistem51, credor (WAY TOO EXPENSIVE?!), other Orient watches, Oris (no experience, and my one time seeing it is from the boutique store at plaza sing. Mostly all divers?!), Tissot (everytime series), fossil automatic (totally no experience with the stop 1-11 movement) and skagen (which she doesn't mind but then again it's a fashion label).

Also some of the Bros here are right about how thickness is a major selling point for ladies watches. So try and keep the suggestions along those line. Lastly, it doesn't have to come with a stock mesh strap as that can be replaced easily...

Thank you all for your suggestions. Do feel free to drop any of your thoughts.

Bro! That Alpina is a solid suggestion. I don't think she is keen on putting a diver tho... So no points for the hammy

tat was so long ago

got it when THG was clearing FC at 50% before it went to Cortina. Bought quite a few ladies pieces for wife sis mum as well. quite a few of us also bought their slimline, esp the moonphase during the clearance.

got it for ~3k and sold it after a year for 2k++ very low depre.

Fantasium also bought one but diff design; more breguet look alike. also worldtimer.

nice and good value for money.

back then 2013 or 2014 they selling off their 42mm slimline moonphase.
they released the 39mm in 2015 after receiving comments that 42mm a tad too big for a dress watch.

FC now part of citizen group. alot of grey has selling their watches today, prices even lower.

low prices doesn't reflect the quality and movement put into it.
arguably the best value watches at the moment.
citizen recently acquired the brand recently, so I would anticipate that prices will eventually firm up when distribution deals and stocks are settled.

some models are going at retailers in SG at -40% off at the moment. check out the independent watch shops or those online e.g. carousell.
