My advice is to always get it authenticated when u buy any watch other than an AD or a boutique.

Why? Because even if the seller is reputable and honest, his source may not be as clean and might throw in a bogey amongst the gems

Well said. The authentication is really nothing more than a peace of mind. Even if I buy from a reputable secondhand dealer, I still send it for authentication. For used, Rolex does alert you of any problems. For instance, one of my watches oil had dried up and Rolex told me about it. Brought the watch back to the shop who promptly serviced it for me FOC. So the authentication fee was well worth it

There's been a fair bit of discussion in the earlier pages and a good commentary by teentitan shushu. Do have a read.

PP is an absolutely beautiful brand to own, but ALS have also accomplished quite a bit of feat in their movements. I'm really amazed by what they've done with the Zeitwerk.

Not dissin' PP by the way. The 5712 that Iceflight and Yatto owns is really beautiful!

Same as me, if really got the buck, I would go for a rose gold regular one. It's really stand out as compared to a SS one.

if dont wanna spend too much or cant afford BALL
then Hamilton Jazzmaster is an excellent choice. Simple dress watch and inexpensive upgrade from Visodate

Note a soprod A10 is design to compete with eta 2892.
Most watches contains a eta 2824 a level behind 2892.

If Antea is not your style can look at stowa marine A10

If chrono and sub dials your thing try
GUINAND-UHREN Helmut Sinn GmbH - 40.50-05

Thanks to all bros for the recommendations and advice. new to watches and will go read up on the 2824 and 2892! A lot of choices man I'm glad

Interesting but not something that I would get. Cos it's seems a little off in my opinion. The pinup girl and flieger just doesnt add up.

According to Red Army Watches, the lady in the logo, nicknamed Lady Chin Swee, is modelled on the pin-up girls used in nose art - the decorative paintings on the fuselage of military aircraft - especially in the early twentieth century.

Makes sense wad.. A bit pricey for a flieger though.. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Quite pricey for a stowa and furthermore it's not swiss made(Am I right?)

Maybe can take off the case back and use it as a display back case.. It is still beautiful that way..
Of course that beats the purpose of a limited edition.. Haha.. I guess it is meant to be a guys watch
