Hi, Need some advice. I have a Steinhart Ocean Titanium that is not working. There is something loose inside based on what I can feel. It is out of warranty unfortunately. Should I send to Gnomon or other shop for repair? If not Gnomon, do you guys have any recommendation? Thanks in advance...

Wanna get a yellow gold watch. Narrowed to these two choices. Which one would you choose?

1) Rolex Yachtmaster 16628 (Full Set) - $21,000
2) Rolex Daytona Zenith 16518 on Leather (Watch only) - $18,500

Daytona looks nice.

I go with Daytona, you can easily head to RSC and buy the bracelet otherwise ebay it.

Vintage usually will head upwards in pricing.

Thanks to those whom gave me advices, I've went down to k2 watch to take a look at the snzf17 :)

Bought it without much hesitation because I've made up my mind. Finally a steel bracelet diver watch in my collection!

Decided not to go with adding the sapphire glass due to budget constrain, but will definitely get it done in the near future if i have the chance to.

Edit: Too long since I've embed photos LOL

I would suggest going back to gnomon and get a quotation. They are quite service oriented but might take awhile to get the watch back.

Never poison by mods while at K2 ah? Almost non-stop of people bring in parts for Ah Goh to mod their Seiko, especially the FFF dial mod.

Email gnomon on claiming warranty on their Dievas and they didn’t want to get back. I hope he has better luck.

The reviews I found on WUS not really cool

I previously sent in a squale, which was under wty, for a stiff crown. Had a pretty pleasant experience. Took awhile though. Maybe better to go down to the shop?
