The Watch Thread - Part 3

[javincho]

I'm interested in a STOWA or NOMOS.

Which? JWH doesn't have either one...

U can also try on LACO if keen on online watches.

 

[javincho]

If u are serious about lume, u should also consider the Armida A2/A2 PVD. The lume is awesome, out glowing even a Seiko Sawtooth!!

Great bright lume but not heard of this brand B4.... as for me, I will prefer BALL or Seiko...

 

[javincho]

Lol I beg to differ. Maybe to layman it looks no diff from a gshock. But Still can fetch 20k le.

I saw it at MBS with bracelet and it is a beauty.... don't really look like $1K or $2K watch...

but AP is still AP (ADDITIONAL PRICING) for the logo branding & workmanship.

wa damn nice leh. **** la shd i start looking at omega too?

These new Omega dress watches are marketed & priced higher & quite beautiful too... in range of around $10K or more.... saw at MBS on display...

However not sure if it is worth considered buying as could be "over-priced"?

 

[javincho]

Yeah, been rather drawn to the Master Control lately. The Master Reserve De Marche and Hometime is pretty appealing too. Good choice!

Went to JLC MBS and their entry lvl master control RP$9,850 with 10% discount. And if go to Cortina Raffles City, u can get additional 9% cash rebate using OCBC with interest-free installment buying JLC there.

 

[javincho]

i was offered 35% off for the longines and 50% off for the tag..so it was a no brainer..

before anyone asks, its staff discount...

Wow..... that's a gd one... FANTASTIC !!!!
AD know how to make big bucks by controlling discounts & yet offer aggressive to their staff.

wa 10k. cfm plus chop i wont get it then lol!

i tried the explorer 2 once, and i dun like it, especially the bezel. i already have a portofino, so would like to expand my collection to include the milgauss or explorer. have not tried out the milgauss yet, so will find some time to go down next year.

went with fren to check out JLC couple of months back, and i must say on first look at the reverso it oozes class all ard. and that's when i know i will get it, just a matter of when oni lol

Gd choice u make for getting Portofino... their entry lvl RP $5800 (leather) and $7200 (bracelet)... I found it is much nicer & yet cheaper than JLC/ Lange as compared during MBS. Previously 2 months back I saw a black version leather at $4760 in T1 departure airport.

My next target could be obtaining that entry lvl IWC piece. Explorer II is way above my BUD (around $10K range)... but who knows someday...

 

[javincho]

Nice.... especially the crown portion.

This Tissot is worth much better value-buy than Omega 10K dress watches.
Design is on par if not better...

 

[javincho]

If u get at 50% for this model.... wow this is excellent purchase. This retails at $4500 after few rounds of price increases. Now discount at 10% after I checked Sincere Watch MBS. U must have good lobang with staff

BTW, Tag has new AR 500m with ceramic bezel RP$3800 and look nice too. Looks like another older version 300m with SS bezel now RP $2900....

If can get at 50% off, I will go for its BLUE version.

 

[javincho]

If u like just buy

If not in hurry.... u can also check out Groupon or other similar for better pricing.... i got watch winder over there.

 

[javincho]

Again went to Cortina MBS and look at Zenith EL Captain RP$8700... a beautiful piece..... possible to go up to 25% off with additional 9% cash reabate OCBC promotion if interested.

Any idea if the Nearly New are referring to off season models or used?

 

[WuSangui]

do you all think Omega SMP 2254 is worth going at $2200?

It seems Omega 2254 price will only go up and not coming down anymore.

i got no idea. it seems a little confusing. maybe its returned products?

i am thinking of either getting a quartz or auto c5
