Those looking for nice watches can checked out the small shop ( shared with Jaben ) at Adelphi #01-09.

The shop selling the China brand "Seagull". The watches looked very very complicated and nice and cheap.

Generally about 5 years, but most pple wear until got issue then send for service. Below is a general guide to the servicing cost from Gnomon Watches. I think these are for common ETA calibers.

I was advised that mechanical watches get serviced once every 4-5 years to maintain the accuracy.

So far, mine is still pretty new and yet to due for service; hence I'm not sure about the price.

I do heard that the servicing price do varies across the brand; Rolex cost hundreds of dollars for servicing alone excluding parts and the price differ depending on their models too. This was what I heard, so I might be wrong.

Nice. I have been looking at this watch since it came out at Basel 2013. It is based on the Zenith Type 20 altimeters and onboard watches (montres d’aéronef) that appeared in 1938 on the instrument panels of a number of planes. Only the 40mm is wearable, the rest looks like clock!

That's true.

Savings are quite substantial!
