The Watch Thread - Part 4

[Paladium]

1) Yattokame - black/RG; bought a white/RG for dad and white/steel for cousin

I'm pleasantly surprised you got one for yourself, given your declaration of being a brand *****.

1 step closer to being a true WIS..

I actually do buy watches like casio G shocks also lah. Yes i think I am turning WIS hahaha.....

The bambino is really a good buy at this price range. If only the strap is not an awkward 21mm......

Actually its for the wife......she commented how nice it looks and didnt mind buying one for casual wear

Will VW or someone with the bambino measure the lug length for me, ie, from the top of the top lug to the bottom of the bottom lug. Not the lug width. Thank you.

46mm, buddy

Thank you yattobro for helping to answer. Wearing the Stowa and already out of the house when I saw Paladium's post.

Had an ultra filling mac breakfast.

Yup I know it's for your wife.

But it's just a matter of time before you get poisoned whenever your wife wears it and buy one for yourself so you see.. that's when my sentence applies.

So many bambino owners. How about tissot visodate owners? Got mine after someone shared it here few years back? Haha.

Btw any tips on what are the do or do not when setting my time on a manual winding watch?

Btw, any place to recommend to send my tag with eta movement for servicing? Had it for 5 years and only sent in for servicing once. Shld I send in for servicing? Or only when there's an issue?
