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:))

the actual feel and look of the watch will be different as compared to seeing photos because those are nicely taken. but shortlist nonetheless then when u go down and see u will know which one really capture ur heart and wallet. hahaha.

Price is about the same around the world. Discount is almost fixed.

Go to mid valley mega mall at KL. Outlet called wata time. They can give more than 15% discount.

1st or 4th. White dials no contrast against silver indexes sometimes. One problem with visodate too.

But the 39mm size is good for wrist sizes below 6.5 inches imo

If for cycling or sports why not just go for watch like g-shock? Too mainstream? hahaha.

Usually imo, if sports or cycle don't need really stylo bah, more into usability?
