The Watch Thread - Part 4

[Geeezz]

Lazy to take a photo with the watches. But was planning on this for the night.

On the Lange, will probably go with the WG. So see how it goes.

Did try the PP 5960P though over the weekend as a thought.

the pp damn swee

They'll all good watches. Choose what you love, it's your cash

Pelagos - light, titanium, classy design like submariner

Breitling - heavy (good weight), functional (water resistant depth)

Planet Ocean - the priciest amongst three, sapphire case back (sucker for that)

tough choice, but fortunate it is one you can make and choose

Thanks for the advice.

Nice quick overview of the choices. Will definite need a hands on with them to make my final decision. The PO looks a little too modern for my liking, and the price is actually quite a stretch for me.

Hope i am not too late for today's theme.
Quite fun to join in. Haha.

Parker was a gift from my officers when i ORD last July and the MB was a gift to myself as a reward for completing my uni.

Very nice! Congrats!

Thank you Oceania and all others for your compliments. I am very happy with this GMT. If I had bough the UN, I probably won't bring it along for my biz trips anyway because of the cost!

Looking good... how much did you pay for it?

Just under $850

Great looking watch! How big is this?

According to Orient website: 41.5mm. But it doesn't look or wear that big. Heavy though.

I haven't seen this in person but online pix is looking nice and tempting. A low cost route to owning an open heart:

+1 for a good dram of Islay scotch.. Never tried Laphroiag's cask strength before though! Pouring me some Ardbeg now!

 

[This Is Fate]

Omega or breitling?

 

[Oceania]

How abt this hand wound?

wah... the more i look at this piece the more chio it looks! Elegant, classy and clean. But would prefer brown croc strap to go with it. Need to see it in the flesh though!

 

[socketer]

oh yeah I was looking at that too.

Seiya sells it at USD712... so bigtime probably will price it around this figure also...

skywatches so far cannot bring in this model, I asked them liaoz, so bigtime remains the only brick & mortar shop that brings this model in...

Wah, new theme ah. Must have shot of whisky bottle and watch?

 

[wondrdoggie]

Hi! Where do you guys usually buy your watches?

 

[All in a Day]

Hi! Where do you guys usually buy your watches?

Depends on the watch u r looking at right? Dont think can find ALS at bencoolen or orient at Hourglass. Hahaha.

Hahaha! That was a bad question! Ok, rephrase: where would you buy second hand luxe watches like PP, JLC, ALS? And I am traveling to Germany, France, Belgium and holland soon, does it make sense price wise to buy a new watch there or in SG?

 

[Paladium]

Omega or breitling?

This is a very vague question, do you have the models in mind?

 

[Panerex]

Sorry late for the party again for the photo theme that I suggested myself

 

[Vanilla Way]

Regarding last night theme, I don't drink and I usually have my tea or coffee in day time so...haha
