saw the seiko premier SKP391P1 as the poor man's nomos but just learnt it's a quartz movement...:(
srp703/srp769 as an alternative?

Maybe cos not many nice grey dial divers at this price range.

The wait is that bad huh?

Anyway which boutique should I visit. I probably only have one day since e remaining 2 days are for e wedding and friends meetup

depends on where u are staying... the best bet is walk down the orchard road and start asking each shop... i did it a few months back. Was told to wait there is a long waiting list.

Just to share with you all. I've bought from Bosphorus before when he was on Etsy. Watch strap was solid but the waiting time was quite long, From memory, I think it ended up a 6 week wait for a strap! I recall quite a number of comments were that it was a long wait! :s13:



Hi GX,

I have chosen the Dark Mustard 02 strap from Bosphorus.

Strap Size : 26mm/22mm

Strap Length : 120/70

Buckle : Pre-V Screwed Buckle

What would be the price?

i bought my mk.I pepsi mako brand spanking new from bigtime last christmas to scratch that pepsi itch for less than $200 on bracelet. :s12: probably one of the last brand new ones available out there. good luck finding one brand new with warranty at any orient AD now.

i chose the old school mk.I version over the mk.II version despite the newer mako:
- having a windable & hackable movement, and
- ditching the controversial marmite-either-you-love-it-or-hate-it day wheel pusher at 2 o'clock.

i used to abhor the ugly appendage, but finally warmed to it for its unique & idiosyncratic look & feel (another huge plus: it's oop liao ;))
