Called Mr Goh to check on avaibility in the afternoon and he brought it in by 6, very friendly uncle as many have attested to. Got the J version. Will be wearing it stock for a while before exploring the mods.

Really time to cut down on my buys..

Looks darn good on stock. How much is it for the jdm model?

You just got lucky. They DO check.
I don't think they check. Haha..unless you are a lone traveller. I am with either a tour or with a entourage of my friends or family. So far so good. What's wrong with shopping? It's stupid to pay for local tax when the reason I bought the items overseas because it's cheaper. But it's my view. Lol. So far I am good.

Oh ya. If you're seen carrying a lot of branded paper bags of course they check you. Mine I all stuff in luggage and backpack..haha the last trip to south Africa bought 8 pairs of Jordans to resell. Haha I hand carry never Tio. Maybe cause per item cheap.

My aunt bought a few diamond necklace and rings also never kena or go declare. Depends la.

Haha I would advise against it but it's up to one choice

My contribution.. Did it afew months ago.. Watch from K2 and mods from 10watches.

Anyway I was on impulse mode when I did the mod. Blue Sunburst dial is nice but it doesn't suit my gold bezel. I am planning to buy the charcoal sunburst to change. If anyone here is interested in moding to Blue dial. I can give it to him/her :)

Can anyone advise me if Jackroad price is really that attractive? I am looking at their website and it is slightly below grey prices in Singapore. Is it the fixed price or we can ask for more discount? I don't know if I converted correctly.. Their daytona rose gold chocolate dial is like 26k before tax.. Real Tempting..

No they don't. And she told me this is way less than $100. For the gifts they give me I insist on paying them back or at least a token sum. Like I said I always buy them lunch or some snacks. I treat them like I would my own children (ok maybe not so extreme lah......) because they are somebody's son and daughter, and I am a parent myself.

Also hope to teach them to be generous next time when they work. And also brought them to join me for my volunteer work.

Usually two months but some are also temp staff waiting for NS or uni.

if only everywhere also got you this type of gui ren. world might be a better place.

May i know your reason behind that? Was looking at creation watches. Any views on that website? :s11:

I like to buy from K2 because his prices are very good and he knows Seiko movements inside out. Furthermore, if wana mod, he can do it too. If buying Seiko divers, he is the man.

Skywatch lady boss very hao lian one, always brag about how well they are doing, I don't like her, hahaha

For Creation Watches, I only have one buying experience from them when I recently bought the Bambi. I'm pleasantly surprised for the fast delivery.
