The Watch Thread - Part 4

Looks like a daydate...? Can take a clearer pic?

Can bring to RSC to verify.

I happen to have an aftermarket strap for the daydate. Let me Know if you want it. Italian croc - bought for $180; can let u have it for $100. Worn twice.

Yes it's a day date, but doesn't self-wind or manual wind. Don't know what model is it..i think could be a 50-70s model.

Not sure if this helps. phone photo and the show has quite a bit of scratches.

Will let you know if interested.

I dunno if RSC can repair such an old model - have you asked the experts at sg-roc?

Drop the instalment part. Doesnt make sense to start your adulthood with unnecessary debt... especially watch.

First watch for man is like first pair of high heels for women.

Look at Omega Seamaster, bell n Ross, Bretling, Tudor. If you are looking at sports.

Ball, Baume & Mercier, Longines, Rado, Raymond Weill. If you prefer more executive watches

yesssssssssssssss u are spot on.

they were complaining cannot afford condo/cars etc. so i think they turn their heads to watches which is still ok

plus the 40mth thingy come out, i think they are very tempted now

What is 40th month thing?

Very interesting find in my uncle's storeroom, not sure if it is real.

Any idea what model is this?
Where to get it verified?

Thx!

Need a clearer picture to confirm.

There should be a model number at the 12 o clock position in between of the lugs (legs) where the strap is suppose to sit.

But the day font seems alittle off from that angle. Need clearer pic to confirm

It is missing the model number. It does look a little off to me. because the day is in between the dial ring. I have yet to see any rollie with the day design.
Have a feeling that it might not be genuine

First time seeing a tissot visodate in the metal. Quite like the black model haha. But would like it more if they had dropped the day window.

Nowadays which shop still retailing visodate at good price?

If wan sinn can try asking friends who are in navy... might get discount...

Prices of watches (brand new) will drop one meh? As far as I know it only increases. Only our buying power drops

Very nice watch for that price point - and it's got date! One thing I disliked about my daytona was that it didnt come with a date
