Wah how old is this watch?

 

[Henabi]

Hi everyone, would like some advice regarding an upcoming purchase: got an offer of 2.2k for a pre-owned TAG Heuer Carrera CV2A11.FC6235 dated 2011. Should I get it or are there better options out there for similar price range?

Thanks

Brand new you can consider:
- Tissot Heritage 1948
- Hamilton Intra-Matic 68
- Sinn 144 GMT and able to showcase it's sexy backside

Pre owned you can consider:
- Omega SMP 3510.81.00 39mm

I will leave to our in-house TT01 to poison you gao gao with Omega SMP =p
paging TT01!!!!

IMO Get the black. Much more versatile, as the blue is quite bright and may not pair well with outfits. For that price, getting in enough wrist time and feeling shiok while wearing is impt, and I think the black will do a much better job than the blue. The blue looks more like a fun/vacation watch.

Just my 2 cents

Yeah the blue does seem to be abit too bright, as the pelagos has a more understated design. I probably won't be get it now since I'm still a student but I'm hoping to get it in 3-5 years time once I started earning more.

I like the movement but hate that they ended up removing the lume marker at 3 o clock. The balance just doesn't look as "right" now. That's why I got the new black bay and stuck to old pelagos. Lol.

5100 too expensive. Try below 4.5.

AD can get for less than 4.5 meh?

nice choice! since you set your sight on Omega... don't look at Tag Heuer liao

Maybe just be a little more patient. another Omega SMP might pop up again. You can try to contact Chuan, HJ, Goldman or Passion if they have any on-hand or anyone intending to sell this watch

AD cannot. But 5100 from AD is reasonable.

It was the asking price that really got to me, considering its a full set mint condition omega. Rest of sellers either had watch only or a higher selling price

Think better to get second hand. 4k easy to find. And tbh, who cares about it being brand new. Lol.
