Okay I need a bit of "push" or "opinion"

Looking for a entry dress watch on those online shops
So narrow down to Quartz as probably my wife can't tell the diff and also the price jump quite substantial . My pick and budget is roughly below .

Tag link 1800
Longiness 1100
B&M 1300
Raymond Weil 800-1000

Am leaning towards the B&M but is it value for money and also the branding thingy. Tag marketing is surely louder .
Upgrading her from a Eco-drive , will it be a good choice ?
Dilemmas

Pay a wee bit more and hoot an Omega entry level quartz aqua terra, de Ville or constellation?

Hi guys

Been reading almost 100 pages in this thread...

I am looking at
Seamaster Planet Ocean 600 M Omega Co-Axial 42 mm - Steel on steel - 232.30.42.21.01.001

Havent went to any AD yet, but based on Omega Price List in Singapore | Watchnatic Blog its abt 6.5 grand... (with the standard discounts, maybe 5,800?)

What are your thoughts? Thinking maybe i should hoot this on my trip to HK... (save tax)

i dont think its that cheap now, i called once to ask before i think its in the 7k range. omega here is v strict with discount one, wos standard 8%

yes omega very strict on discounts quite some time already.....

Retail for that omega 8.1k when I bought mine. Same price for the 45.5 & 42. Please try it first before buying as the 42 might seem small on wrist.

After getting the Richard Mille RM011 and wearing for a few days, I'm hooked on the comfort and the looks of the watch. However, the one I got is great for the weekend and nights but a bit casual for work, So today went to get one for my daily working use. The Richard Mille RM029 Rose Gold. Very darn happy!!! Share my joy with all u people then.

Clearer pic of my Lemans Edition RM011

The side details are nice as well

It comes with its nice carrier held with a leather like strap

My 2 watch cases, looks better in a pair

Was about to say the same thing. SG AD only offer 8% discount.

TAG Heuer, Breitling Watches, Omega, Baume & Mercier, Bell & Ross, Rolex, Movado, Cartier, Baume Mercier, Longines, Oris, Chopard, Rado, Michele, Ebel, Tissot Watches On Sale!

Close to 26% discount. Not sure if we would need to pay Gst anot? Anyone knows
