[Vanilla Way]

I went down to Bras Basah to ask... the uncle say the bracelet very difficult to change cuz need to cut here...cut there...

to fit the lug cutting?

judging form the image provided, looks like it shouldn't be a problem, judging from what the uncle said, yeah your lug to lug might not be the standard ones that requires some trimming of the strap to fit in.

i agree , if not i will be rocking GO on my hand while everyday go eat grass for next 5 years ...

i should learn how to save money.... maybe after the prada bag , someone help me

Best way to save money is to save first then spend..rather than spending first then save the rest Force yourself if you must if you are really determined to save.

Have 2 banks accounts. Dedicate one to credit your salary den setup a standing instruction of X amount of money (what you wanna save monthly) to wire to the 2nd account.

For best results:
-Setup the standing instruction for funds transfer on payday
-Do not apply for any debit or atm card for the second bank account.

Just sharing my method on saving, hope it helps!

no problem.

In the context of the gathering, sausage fest is appropriate mah. It's like u want to have many ladies in a gathering about football meh? (generalization example only ah. Ladies who are football experts pls don't take offence)

Which model is that jlc ah? Cant seem to find in jlc webbie. Isit a vintage?

I think is vintage liao. Cuz i remember when I went to JLC boutique@ MBS, most of the Reverso on display are Grande Reverso or Grande Reverso Squadra.

So if wanna get the regular reverso, will need to go 2nd-hand or Grey

The orientstar is one nice looking piece...

YES VANILLA!!! This is the one particular model which got me sitting up straight and got me to do research about Orient, cuz last year I was shopping to buy an automatic watch for my dad...

The more I do...the more I fell in love with his particular model

tbh, my first post in this thread here was actually asking all the gor gor here about this particular model

I just had this wild idea of how to turn this into a uber sexy piece. Maybe not for guys but for ladies because it involves swapping the bracelet with a cobalt blue leather strap. That electric blue hands and electric blue strap probably gonna turn some heads. (Cos I don't think many guys can pull off the cobalt blue strap)

These 2 can match? May consider getting them as a gift for wifey.

Where got sell the Orient Star?

 

[numberseven]

I've met some real rich dicks before and I can guarantee you they won't let you hold their hands.

haha.......... i hav this rich dick sect comm during my reservist days.. one of the night off last time he bought a $48K patek and brought into camp... you can see but cannot touch

 

[Vanilla Way]

This strap can match?

Close enough! I can totally imagine it already, will look awesome (at least to me)

This is cheaper than Azimuth's Preowned Back in time prices right?

 

[Henabi]

judging form the image provided, looks like it shouldn't be a problem, judging from what the uncle said, yeah your lug to lug might not be the standard ones that requires some trimming of the strap to fit in.

yeap Andy... i think that's the main issue, the uncle said something about the connection part between the watch and the bracelet (Which i think is the lug) is not the standard ones...

so he told me that if I still wanna change, its gonna be rather expensive.
