Love school holidays..

Felt like giving a price list, battery this amount, sapphire this amount, stem this amount, crown this amount.

He think people sell watch like mixed rice or nasi padang.

Anybody looking at the new MM200? Replacing the outgoing 44mm mm200. This is 42mm. Release date is early dec, not sure when hitting sg shor.e

Maybe next year will have 40mm version.

Maybe next year will have 40mm version.

They should issue more 40mm size to compete with swiss brand.
But new seiko getting less value for money, all the prospex line is above 1-1.2k with not much upgrade from previous version.

lol. below 12k can buy ah?

sure bo. 8k give me i also dont want

to you who has owned multiple more expensve rolexes, probably might not appeal to you but to people who have not owned a rolex before maybe if it was 8K

i got this brand new at 6k+
so that's why 8k i also don't want. overpriced, let alone 12k.

12k might as well buy sub no-date preowned
i am giving proper advice, don't because its discontinued means its worth double the price, especially its not brand new.

even with 8k, i can get better watches than that rolex OP, boring watch, wore for 12 hours and i sold it at a loss.

it's not a diss so don't take it the wrong way.

Yep agree, still an overpriced watch. What would you recommend for a first Rolex then? Was eyeing the explorer mk1 or the Airking at retail pricing.

depends on budget.

even explorer 1 214270 already above 10k for brand new.
however the 114270 still affordable, way better buy than the op39.

if you have more than 10k budget, used sub/sub date your best bet.

below 10k, if die die want rolex, explorer 2 polar 16570 (still floating around below 10, no box and papers)
explorer 1 like you mentioned.

i just feel for starters, you never know what you actually like till you own it, so getting these rolexes would be a good starting point and if you want to sell it, it's pretty easy and you don't take a big hit.

my first rolex was a 16610, traded for a 1680, went back to 114060 and.... lol now left with SD4K only.

appreciate the advice ,not sure if i should get a prewoned one without B&P since it is harder to sell it later on or few years later if I upgrade. I know there are people who wont buy a rolex without B&P for non vintage models.

Really depends.
People are always willing if the price is right.

Never expected myself to buy a Zenith watch. I love how fitting it is and the titanium bracelet is really beautifully done. Feels very light on hand due to full titanium used.

My friend got himself a Omega Sapphire Sandwich. Heard omega is coming out an improved model next year. Current model out of stock everywhere.
