Hey guys, just wanna check. I'm thinking of getting the seiko monster (orange colour) with code SRP309K1.

Anyone know any shop that can give a good price for me? and how much am I looking at roughly? If anyone have any idea?

Thanks, appreciate it.

Consider CK watches.

Hey all,
Would appreciate all your expertise.

I'm looking at UHR and UHR-Kraft watches. I understand UHR ships directly to Singapore without VAT, but UHR-Kraft does not ship to Singapore.
Are the brands related in anyway?

Are there any places that sells both watch brands locally in Singapore?
PS Would also appreciate if anyone can recommend watches in the similar price range. Personally own a Steinhart Pilot and loving it.

Many thanks in advance!

They used to use seagull grade A movement today they move to a different source.

If u burning 1k on it might as well go for seagull

decided to not change my tudor black bay bracelet to fabric strap. i call thg and i sense his voice was like "huh why would u want to change to fabric strap"

half way through my journey i took another second look at bracelet and think bracelet worth more and looks better.

then i head to seiko vivocity to look at the seiko astron. saw the 3k-4.5k price tag and quickly left hahaha.

hi all i am looking for advice on a decent watch around 500-1k but of course the cheaper the better.

i have considered tissot but the designs are meh and it seems overpriced more for brand then watch. the other only option i really liked was steinhart the ocean military vintage model but its really rare and pre order takes quite awhile.

im also not up for really plain brands like uhr and things like that where there it looks no different from a 5dollar watch from bugis.

i hope you guys can give me some good suggestions haha sorry i know im tough to please=/ would be really awesome if u guys could help me out thanks so much)

Try christopher ward, they are great quality swiss made watch at a very reasonable price. Steinhart is the alternative but is German made instead. Somehow I'm more attracted to designs of CW than steinhart.

If you are looking at divers, try looking at Helson.
