Seems like they want to remain in the "affordable" consumer category. For those who want classic european designs with inhouse swiss movements yet dont want to pay tens of thousands for it.

Watches are a represntation of a man's status and taste.

Status can be acquired but not taste.

FC is slowly growing its base..who knows? They probably might command a premium 10yrs down the road if their marketing strategy works?

I quite like it and i've told my gf to look out for it in Geneva.

I personally own a FC Classic Manufacture and i love it! Very little people know of this brand unfortunately as it's relatively new. But knowing its has an inhouse movement for such price, you just have to get it! :)

is there someone who can replace the glass and maybe do some simple servicing for my parnis watch for a small fee?
i bought it for less than $70 but the thought of spending >$100 to service a $70 watch is :s22:

Hey bros, what do you all think of Orient Bambino? Looking for a cheap automatic watch. Anyway how much is it and where to get it? Thanks!

Bambino not bad la, look vintage and quite nice with the convex crystal. Only thing I don't like about it is no display case back. Priced around $208 after discount. Can go shops at Bencoolen, or go Big Time?

Unless you really like the watch a lot, I wouldn't bother.

Nice! I believe there's another similar blue dial model without the roman numerals. Whats the RP for your piece? Is it available with a bracelet instead?

I believe you are referring to the slimline moonphase. :)
RP is approximately 3.8k before any discount for the Classic.
