You can check-in and collect your boarding passes upto 24 hrs in advance at changi airport. However, I recommend ideally 6 hours before departure, to minimize chances of misplaced baggage. Seek SQ counters with ÄLL FLIGHTS displays.

Source: I used to work as consultant for airlines and airport including SQ/Changi.

6 hours is too early liao bah. o.0
3hrs to 4hrs is good enough imo. Simple snack in the transit area at T2. Then shop around... I personally like T2 transit more than T1 n T3. More stuffs to see.
Plus T2 also has an arcade and kids area in the transit iirc.

Also these days... certain SQ destinations allow you to do web check in and print out the boarding pass. Afterwards just need to get a stamp from the counter will do

Went to try Explorer I today, did not like it. Also tried Explorer II also same, feel like missing connection to me.

Stepped inside Cortina sale (small Q only), tried this one and fell in love. :s22::s22: Brought her home. :s13:

dear experts..i am back again...up till now, I still have not taken out the step to hoot an AP; talk abt being fickle minded

And I finally tried out the AP ROO Panda and ROC on my wrist yesterday..i must say ROO cases are too thick for my liking; ROC sits better on my wrist I reckon.


I chanced upon a PP 5165A selling ard $20K.
Comparing a BNIB PP versus a 1 year-old ROC selling ard $20K, which one will you go for?

My heart says PP since it is the world's top watch maker.
However 5165A is on rubber strap whereas ROC is on steel bracelet which is my preference.

Headache, headache

TIA

U work at AD or grey dealer?


nah not AD. this watch business is just another side business my boss developed. Got super good contacts for PP and other limited edition stuff so decided to cater a small group of ppl. Most of the PP pieces are doubled sealed.

Yope! For me the design of this brand is definitely elegance. How much you bought your POntos Reserve de Marche? Will love to have this one but... :s22:

I probably look for 2nd hand watch now :)

May I know the meaning of doubled sealed? Just in case I really go for a PP.

Many thanks
