Hi bros, looking for a sporty dive watch. Currently looking at Longines Hydroconquest. Is there any watch that i should be looking out for at this price range?

Not know how much does a longines cost... You can consider Squale. Looks like Rolex submariner without burning a hole in your pocket. Otherwise, try steinhart, another value for $$$ selection

Hi fellows, saw a watch today that caught my interest. Unfortunately it was on another chap's wrist & I couldn't figure out what model it is. The design style resembles this:

But the most distinct feature was that the crown is not at the usual spot, i.e. based on the fact that the chap is standing opposite me, & his wrist is down, I'll say the crown is situated around 10 o'clock. The dial is very clean, except for maybe a power reserve, or a semi-circle 'line' on the face. That's all. Not a chronograph. Watch face should be 40mm thereabouts. Any body has any idea?

could it be this?

Well.....can always bring it to the agent for authentication.
Ppl do buy watches without box and papers. Just knock some off your asking.

Go read more Buddhism book to balance your heart

I am a free thinker like LKY. I dont necessarily believe in GOD but neither do i deny the existence. I think yottakame should become a politician his thinking very well balanced, sg might become a better more balanced society under guidance of more people like that. I have become imbalanced due partly of what sg has become now. Very divided between the rich & poor. Society putting alot emphasis on merits & economy. But how much rich are there compared to the poor? I believe there are much more rich than the poor.

Do ask for a quote from multiple watch technicians. I can also recommend you one. If the watch is still running fine then servicing shouldnt be too exp. or u can choose to wear it until it stops then send for servicing

is there any place where I can get Tissot Visodate at a reasonable price? Ace Jewelers priced it at 377 Euro which seems pretty normal... or should I just get it from Singapore retailers?

 

[yattokame]

Happy Birthday Singapore!!!

 

[MookieTea]

What do you guys think? Can't seem to decide between this two. I was looking at the Omega Seamaster at first, but didn't want to splurge on my first decent watch.

 

[yattokame]

I prefer the ball becos of the cool tritium baton markers

Between the two, I would go for the Ball. I quite like the lume of Ball watches.
