I am out for watch hunting to celebrate 5th anniversary

Any suggestions within 4-6 k range?

Must be automatic and can also be used as daily beater in office

hmmm... i rather go for the newer offerings, not so much for the maxi dial or supersized case, but morethe superior parachrome spring and excellent bracelet that finally (!) matches the watch in terms of quality.

the older bracelet just feels cheap and nasty - like some stamped metal afterthought.

i think will camp for a while for better deals. see if theres good offer for the 114060. saw theres a 2009 14060M going for 6.2k i think still able to neg abit, got abit tempted also..

keep moving upwards also no end, :s13:

Is the 2009 model cosc certified alrd? The 14060m cosc certified maybe "collectible" because of the relatively short life span of that model.

Thanks.

Just now tried planet ocean, too big for my small wrist.

Have been offered $5000 for seamaster diver 300M co- axial

A good deal?

First time buying an expensive watch :)

but still it's gona be you who will be wearing and you liking it is the most impt point. :(
the seamaster in nice, but at its price point, can i suggest that you give the speedy another chance? ;) oh and forget abt the tag pls =:p

I and my other half always have conflicting interests when comes to watch selection though :s13:
places like sincere, hour glass, dickson, etc have 0% installment plans, but depends on which card you're holding.

The problem and beauty of watches is that it's a v personal choice amalgated by your perception of values and aethestics that are in turn shaped by a myriad of reasons. That's why this thread sees so many posts from all of us haha.
