The Watch Thread - Part 5

[i_got_a_question_to_ask]

AD big time got give discount one or not?

 

[Panerex]

Blancpain's one is Fifty Fathoms, Modded Seiko is Fifty Five Fathoms, thus FFF.

Here's the BP FF,

Here's the Seiko mod,

Quite a bit of difference if you ask me.

Thanks, so after the mod, the seiko brand logo is gone, and it becomes a homage to BP FF

 

[gurgkle]

All these talk on modded SNZH and BP FF reminds of uncle TeenTitan01, his love for the BP FF silky smooth bezel and crystal was quite unforgettable. Wonder what happened to him..

Have to admit as abundant as Seikos are that is a very nice one. The gold colour goes well with the black. Very premium look. Looks like a 4k watch. You buy watch like buy groceries.

errrr ok lah. nice mah. watches ok. practical hobby. Cars then problem. In fact my wife very supportive of me buying watches than cars......

Techead pulled me to the blue one now u pulled me towards the black gold.... btw where u get the strap?? got deployant?

at K2 itself... Paros strap.... errr I asked him about rose gold deployant he says he dont have RG ones..... didnt ask if he has steel ones. and my wife says gold on black will never go wrong.

aiya u beat me to it hahahaha

Haha.. my picture? He's a really nice uncle, down to earth and don't really carry any air. i told him to stock up more in his cabinet cos will have a couple of people come and hoot around this week.

*edit. stupid qn.

YES YOUR PICTURE. I AM GOING TO BILL YOU FOR MY PETROL AND $2 PARKING COUPON WHICH I ONLY USED FOR LIKE 20MINS

YAH!!! the watches all nicely displayed in the cabinet... hahaha
when I reached the shop he ask me "yes? looking for something?" I then told him "errrr boss a group of us are supposed to be buying the....."
"oorrrhhhh the seiko!" and we both burst into laughter. Then he asked if we are all going today and I told him not sure but I scared sold out so I quickly come down first

This is one shop worth spending your money at. I'm sure a lot of people can attest to that.

Mr Goh as in k2 at tanjong katong complex? I must have missed your earlier post. How much did it cost u getting it there???

errr the Made in Japan version is $185 and the strap is $15 I think....... was busy chatting with him didn't check the bill on the nets receipt....

IN SUMMARY
K2 Watch @ Tanjong Katong Complex 3rd Floor, after going up the escalator you go into the lane on the right and it's at the end of the lane (the former 2nd chance, or Mr Goh told me "yokoso", then he laughed and said I probably not born yet hahahaha...... really very friendly uncle)

Price: $185 for Japan
Strap also from him, $15 I think

Seiko diver + black & gold tone of bambino = seiko snzh57!!

Hey guys!

This is my very 1st strap that I bought for my Pam and it arrived before the 351 came! Hahaha!

Got it from Straps66, a local strapmaker. Link here: Straps 66

Requested for specific length, where the buckling hole to be, the stitching colour and design, how tapered the strap to be and finally the number of keepers.

Buckle is from Horotomo, link here: HOROTOMO.com - More Than Just Watch Accessories - HOROTOMO

Have fun collecting!

Oh strap66! Haha. Ok. Will go take a look. I also aiming the horotomo submarine buckle. Thanks for the link!

Think the bradystrap is nicer.. But of course you pay for it..

 

[Daniel.Y]

This one is the paros strap?

yes.. paros strap..

Hi bro yatto,

Comparing mini monster and snzh57, which one have thicker casing?

 

[jonathanckh]

Anyone knows the retail price for the Glashutte Original PanoMaticLunar and the standard discount at local ADs?

 

[yattokame]

Hi bro yatto,

Comparing mini monster and snzh57, which one have thicker casing?

both seem similar leh.....

 

[gaoxing84]

I think nothing the seiko very different style. The snzh57 is like sub or smp and monster is very rugged. Can take hits.

Snzh57 got a slightly dressier look. Love the sword hands!!!

[epigram]

Yes, good morning fellow watch enthusiasts! Another long weekend ahead for some!

Stylo GO there. You wear it to work daily? Never seen one on wrist in Sg. Notice the Day started to change but not the Date.

Depending on mood a few days in a month

 

[epigram]

Very nice Glashutte. I notice there's a dot under the brand. Any function for that dot?!

Leap year indicator

 

[gurgkle]

how to mod until look like this ah? quite nice also.

Base is a SNZH55 (Black/Silver) I think.

With the FFF mod dial.

Does anyone know where one can find replacement clasp pins for Seiko watches ? I was adjusting the clasp on my skx007 when it bounced away into oblivion.
