Sorry to bring up Swatch brand.

I see that there is some series that are automatic( i.e Diaphane and the Irony ).

I think these are Vintage and not current production.

Just wondering what movement are they using. I see some are very nice, exposed front and back and with jewels too. No hand wound there haha..

Thanks

well..that is the typical perception of rolex isnt it? that rolex is uncle watch blah blah blah...

more of Rolex is for someone who has worked hard, so 5-10 years into his career then he deserves such prestige. unless u are born rich then rolex anytime. if i do well within the next 2-3 years, then maybe i can own a rolex before age 30. but 5 years down would be a good wait.

PP and AP? I dun think i be able to commit that kind of money down at all in my whole life, unless of cos i strike lottery or something. otherwise, i would most likely stop at the daytona or JLC range 15k range and more or less shd be it le.

Chris Koh : you must love hanging out at ya kun kaya toast shop

Chris Koh : whats that subdial for?
B : i'll let you guess
Chris Koh : what car do you drive?
B : Audi. Switched over from a Volkswagen
Chris : how about your apartment?

You work so hard for your life and you wanna buy a rolex that everyone has.

Fakes look like real one, all the ** lang like ah loong wears it, GCP and GKKJ wears it.
It is some nonsense that wondergirl will wear. Then the robber only aim for people wearing rolex.

Mostly worn by people who show off rather than appreciate watches

/end of rant

Buy what you like and can afford

Just buy what you enjoy wearing and what you can afford. One man's meat is another man's poison.
