The Watch Thread - Part 14

[Ga Li Kong]

Yes it has been slipping away but it is unusually tight, maybe due to the nature that it’s a diver watch. The other bits doesn’t seem to fit

the case keeps slipping from the holder while u r trying to wrench it open?
try other positions so that the black plastic pins can grip better

yeap, my alpinist was screwed on quite tight as well. need to grip properly before you attempt. a slip and your wrench will graze the caseback.

Good evening friends, I am looking at getting a comfortable automatic watch for everyday use. So far I saw this model Oris BC3 on nylon strap. Any recommendation on which shop I can go to get a good price on this watch? Many thanks.

A lot of it has to do with your style and preferences too. Do you like dress watches or sports watches. Is it something for occasions only. is it for investment (i hope not)

Many good options out there with your budget

actually with your budget, you can get Oris, Hamilton, Citizen, G-Shock, Junghans, TAG and a lot more (Daniel Wellington, Fossil, etc)

Forgive bro reikizi, he's a very rich man. because if you really like the Seven Friday - go for that.

What i'm trying to say is we shouldn't validate your watch choice since you are paying for it. Come back again with your top 5 choices and the bros and sis here will give you good value

a quick question - if you were to buy a watch from someone, would you prefer cash or ibank on the spot?

say more than 5k deal.

i cannot understand, 21st century, there are people who like to deal with cash. deal already the next day still need go deposit.
later seller fkup count wrong, complain.

ibank - just numbers, easier. no hassle. not as if i can freaking hack the back and reverse it out.
