Is it really useful? Hahahaha. Just wondering. So you manually wind those watches that you don't wear often?

Don't really need ley, unless if moon phase or those calendar then I will consider getting. Else just manually wind ah :s13:

Hi Guys,

I am interested in a Automatic Tissot watch which retails at around 900SGD. Kindly do advise if the branding and quality of tissot watches and if its worth the stated value.

Else kindly do advise on other brands that I can look into with my stated budget.

Thank you.

Like 15% lower than RRP? Sorry if its a noob stupid cause I though that's a fix price. How much percent dif shld I be expecting?
RRP is never fixed for most goods, especially those that command a premium for their materials cost - be it camera, luxury bags (certain brands), shoes, watch..

Plus there's grey version mar.

For hamilton, if you dont mind gray and certified pre-owned, can look at Ashford

http://www.ashford.com/us/watches/Preowned-Vintage/cat3280049.cid?N=21359+4294503857+4294512330&Ns=product.sort.PriceValue_plist2960030%7C0&catId=cat3280049&q_sortOption=SO_currentPrice&trackUsrOptn=true

Even with GST + shipping their prices are still attractive.

I never bought pre-owned from them. Just sharing only

Choose the one you like. Watch is a very personal choice.

Personally, i prefer sports watches to dress watches. Amongst the 2 that you selected, i would choose Hamilton.

Best for you to try it on.
