I have the same watch as well! Can I know how do you remove the metal bracelet and fit it in with a leather strap? Thanks!

The easiest way is to get a spring bar tool to remove it. You can easily get those online. Alternatively, if you get your strap from a shop, get them to help you change.

More towards dress and preferably with a chrono feature.. 600 range so far only shortlisted tissot prc200, Hamilton, and Christopher Ward.. Any comments on them?

Quartz right?
Tissot c01.211 movement will cost way more than 600, closer to 1k
For a nice 7750 movement uhr is the way to go, for ~sgd$800 can get.

Hi pros here. Wanna ask if those watches at gnomon watches worth it to hoot? Budget about +-500 and those Aristo and laco watches fall under my budget and they look quite nice too. So far I read this thread with this budget mostly is seiko or orient.

Worth it why not? Aristo better since they are on standard eta, laco will be on citizen miyota. They don't hack and hand wind making those standard eta look better

I'm looking for a dress watch recently. Budget is less than 1k. I have short listed cyma and seiko. Kinda favour towards cyma as it is not so common like seiko. Does anybody out there know about the build quality and is it worthwhile to buy that brand?
