watch salesperson wanna gauge whether u are a serious customer(meaning can afford kind), then they give better treatment. They usually gauge by the watch u wear la. At least for me and ahboy experiences

Add me into this experience. Went twice, once with no watch, once with my old citizen. I am treated like I went there just for fun but also cannot blame the sale persons. They are also human who wants to sell the watch with least effort.

I corrected for you.

Ball watches cannot be worn on these occasions.

nope, none wearing a ball watch.
still no **** given when someone wears a ball watch.



the sibei satki feeling. The Ji pa ban feeling.

Not true! I'm in the photo! The one with his head down and embarrassed to face the camera with my Ball hiding deep behind the sleeve.

Ya, no ji pa ban feeling. Maybe ji qeng feeling only.

yep. even though kohchris is very direct and critical in his comments, i love reading what he posted. hahaha

 

[K|muRa^84]

Kohchris takes the whole watch brand thing too seriously

Thanks to Chris, now i make a conscious effort to lookout for Ball in hand

 

[DempseyRoll]

Don't like that la....this is edmw....talk cock sing song place...
If want to be serious, leave it to sgroc forum...haha

I think it's gd ppl share their views, like this ppl can learn from it...but whether to accept it anot is totally personal

 

[Velton]

wondering if i buy a 10k watch, can i down 4k cash and then installment for the remaining 6k to enjoy the rebate?

i checked with the sales.. can be done.

 

[Studded]

Hmm u mean ur watch runs 30 mins or 1 hour faster within 5 hrs?

Yes correct. Not exactly 5hrs though that is a rough estimation

That is a problem, under warranty must get it service.
Out of warranty not sure what's the charges

Yup still under warranty, but it's still working in good condition just that idk why the time will be faster than usual over a period of time. Been quite some time

 

[KohChris]

Nothing on Sinn? Any opinion on 856 & 1736/1746?

sinn 856 fugly, the rest u must check the watch size and c if painted dial without sec hand is 4 u

 

[KohChris]

its just like avoiding topman shops for obvious reasons

Ah beng sell handphone also got Rolex. Students also got Rolex.

What I'm saying is, just buy what you like. But if you think your status is instantly elevated by wearing a Rolex, then think again.

Sometimes it depends on the customer. I wouldn't rush to serve someone who's wearing a Rolex/basic Panerai/entry-level IWC - most likely already spent his savings to buy a "nice watch".

Wearing cheap watch - Maybe looking to buy his first serious watch.

Wearing seriously expensive watch - then all sales people will rush over.

 

[KohChris]

Ball is reali lol. One of their watches state "ball official stds, automatic, 30m/100feet " on the dial. Dial designer is a noob #Facewatch and #facepalm

 

[DaBenDan]

Kohchris takes the whole watch brand thing too seriously

Damn, Panerai should just scrap its history and start from 1995 when Sylvester Stallone propelled the brand to popularity. IMHO, I think Officine Panerai is founded by Sylvester Stallone. Go Rocky!!!

 

[Spartanz.]

I against ball, rolex, u-boat (quality worse than tissot) and ap (20k can buy 1 18k rg watch liao)

Koh , which watch brand u support? Omega can? Hahaha

 

[exxondus]

Nothing on Sinn? Any opinion on 856 & 1736/1746?

Dun like 856. Looks like its missing something to me.

The klassik 1736 very uncle but i rike
