Nice! Any idea how much is this in Singapore and where can I get a good price? I went Vincent watch at tampines mall, there's 15% for tissot but didn't ask the price for this.

Bought the rose gold version as a gift 2 mths back at ard $500+ aft 15% discount at aptimos wisma. Silver version is slightly cheaper.

Hey guys, my omega speedy is nearing the end of its 2 year warranty...was wondering if i were to bring it down and request for servicing, knowing that there is nothing wrong with the watch, will they entertain my request?

Hi guys, my leather strap with the clasp (metal thing that clicks in place) is loose, I can put in 2 fingers after clasping my watch together. However, if I put the leather pc any tighter my hand cannot get in. Am I able to adjust the clasp such that it makes it tighter? Btw I'm wearing a tissot visodate. Thanks

Yes they do. Just bring down as for a normal servicing. Or u can go thru boutique to save time.

Interested to get it together? Probably can ask for better price if purchase together. Haha. I also have small wrist, yet to try these watches yet. Is there any general rule of thumb a certain wrist size shouldn't go for anything bigger a diameter size?

u can't just look at wrist size alone. A lot depends on the "flatness" of your wrist and the lug-to-lug measurement/how the lugs are shaped. As long as the lugs do not protrude out of your wrist surface, it should be fine.

As for your question, best to go down to shops to try on the watches.
