new zeniths

good to see zenith moving out of pilot watches

When I say first one nicer... then I scroll down... hmm second one nice then finally third one nicer.

Then I go back to first one.. "Still think first one best"... Scroll abit more "But Second one nicer than first one le"...

OMG I CAN'T DECIDE WHICH ONE IS NICEST. ...

But Im quite interested in first de price

seiko got how many jewels??

 

[Fast]

the 359 looks nice

 

[TeenTitan01]

Anyone like MBandF watches? Their horological machine and legacy machine seems extremely unique but i cant appreciate
Except the dual spinning balancing wheel

that's because esoteric brands like mb&f, uwerk, etc are for those who already owned several or more pieces from top tier brands like ap, pp, vs, als, etc

these collectors are jaded and looking for something that excites and interest them.

My Seiko



Bought this when I was in Taipei in Dec 2013.

depends on model ba. also, having more jewel doesn't mean its a better watch wor..

a fully jeweled watches only require 17 jewels.. anything more are likely "for show" and excuse for them to sell at higher price..

I got a shock when I went to one of the preown shops at Far East plaza ytd. My fiancé was interested in a vintage rolex 6694, mop dial. The ah pek told us frankly in the face that they so not have one in stock, and ask us to come back one day later so that can do the dial change of the watch to sell us.

Wow. Not original dial, not original glass, movement not too sure. 1.6k to unknowningly customers. That's good money. No wonder people seldom collect vintage rolex

Yeah. Praise god that the particular model was oos, and we learnt about how most vintage rolex has been tweaked in a way or the other.
