Now that u mentioned, brought back my memories too...

During my time, that place was called Albert Complex. I still have the citizen watch my dad got me as a teenager and wore it until my mid 20s when I bought myself a watch after few years in the work force.


Haha my father bought me one watch once. Its a Mr. G-Shock. I recall i was around 14-15, and the titanium than was damn exp. So I bought the Stainless Steel, I still have it with me. Its damn heavy built like a brick.

if it is... then I understand what you mean... Its like SUPER HEAVY especially when we were still so young...

sidetrack:

Found the G-Shick watch I picked from this website:
http://watchshock.com/archive/Casio/G-Shock/DW-00x/DW-001J-1/ - almost a full archival of Casio watches!!!

DW-001J-1

I remember very clearly why I picked this watch is because the design is uncommon from most of the G-shocks around that period...
it also shows the current temperature and has a bar showing the ave temperature for the last 5 days.

speaking of which... my nephew just got his O Levels results and he did pretty well. Got 5 As out of 8 subjects, and I promised him that if he did well for his O levels, I will buy him a graduation watch. My budget is around $600
then just now at lunch time, I walked by this watch shop at Collayer Quay and this Arbutus design caught my attention:

Any better recommendations?

Personally prefer gold watch on a leather strap. Will make a v nice dress watch. VC patrimony, PP calatrava, JLC, Lange.

Gold casing + gold bracelet is abit too much bling for me.

U have been eyeing gold gmt sometime right? Go for it if u like it la!

I don't know the pricing and normally I don't like hublot. But if you are looking for gold watch, how about big bang unico king gold?
