I am actually leaning more to the Seiko because of the enamel dial but the price is really

Seems like Seiko is not value for money as compared to the past anymore

Anyone has experience or owned Ming Watches? Just stumbled upon them, apparently Malaysian owned brand? Design looks cool, h moser-like but not sure if I can justify the price lol

Presage Arita is Porcelain, SARX061 / SPB095J1, US$1,700.00.

Presage Enamel is SARX049 / SPB047J1, US$730.00.

Above are gnomon prices, so locally should be able to get slightly less from other sources.

Think rather than the dial material it's also more of preference?

If just comparing the two designs Seiko for me! Looks good!

 

[ecan07]

Been rocking this piece for the past 5 days, really too handsome

Wow this looks really good! Like the metallic finish, at least less common for a G Shock design (to me la), although the 700 plus price is

What model is this?

The Orient Star Heritage dial color may be due to photography, I mean I look at the Amazon pic of it and it looks whiter.

Granted, it isn't pure white like the Seiko, but isn't as dull or off white like in pics above.
