40mm migauss used cost ~5-7k, a black milgauss new cost 10k white 1-2k more.

Hoot a pre own rolex that is 5-6 yr old better value IMHO

Milgauss is not worth it for Rolex.

Hmm... i'm interested in the GV.

is it really worth it to get second hand when they're at the 7.6-8k range?

And, I've never bought second hand before. In terms of authenticity, this shop trustable? any other places I can look at? only know passions..

Sorry what's GV?

I am just quoting a site selling in sg, most pre own shop pretty safe. Passions no bargain and they generally priced higher.

Dig around sg roc can get it lower price.

I work at a place with shielded magnets in nmrs, probably don't need it as much as I think, more of an insurance policy if the shielding fails.

Budget is about milgauss range.. If I'm not wrong, can get it at high 9k right? Thinking of alternatives to milgauss. If not, will probably hoot that if it looks good on my small sub 6" wrist.

i've seen a couple of ladies sporting milgausses. not bad. so i think is ok for small wrists...

agree that pre-owned is the way to go. brand new is chop carrot.

Its the trend for a while - a fren told me big watches make her wrist look small. Hahahaha

Ya if can save why not? But if the diff is not much then i dont mind buying new.

I think the black version is nicer. However, do take note that the diameter of the watch is rather big. Personally I do find the dial to be messy, though its a unique way to read the time.

Nice looking but too big for my wrist and with my 老花眼 i can't read the time on it haha; and a miyota movement for 1.4k just doesn't do it for me...

I think you should say what kind of watch you are looking for first.

Dress watch? Diver watch? Flieger watch? Chrono?
