Purposely going to make a 2 day stop in Tokyo during my work trip to explore and very itching to get a GS...

Torn between SBGH001 and SBGA011...tckrto any recommendation?

Both same price as mine leh LOL initially also looking at these two, snowflake looks more outstanding due to the dial and the case is titanium. I end up with SBGE009 as I cant find it selling SG.

U have to take a good look at these two model that u filter out. Just buy what you like :s42: If both also like then hoot two lah :s13:

Guys Im interested in getting either the Hamilton Jazzmaster Maestro Auto Chrono or the Hamilton Jazzmaster Maestro Small Second Auto. I'm looking for something that will look good both in casual or smart casual outfits but I am worried that rose gold hands on the watch will look inappropriate.

https://www.google.com.sg/url?sa=i&...pA9BrrXf6WPPx-HbZrjVO-yA&ust=1364953291767886

Or should I go for either of these instead?

Hamilton Watch · Maestro Auto Chrono

Hamilton Watch · Maestro Small Second Auto

I understand opinions can be subjective but Im looking for feedback as this is my "1st watch".Help me out as I cant make up my mind!

My japanese colleague was telling most pawn shop in japan are own by trial. Don know how true it is.

So what it its true? So what if its not? Don't buy get beat up?

Sometimes these pawn shops gather in a shopping mall over the weekend, tons of ladies hunting down those LV bags.
They do adv on TV or radio, understand jap no issue to spot.

My dream will be the TT half gold rolex GMT. Attainable but will need many years of hard work. I wonder for those with deep pockets, having the ability to buy a watch every now and then. The sense of satisfaction might greatly differ from someone who slogged for 30 years just to buy that dream watch of his.
