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.

Azimuth spaceship with stardust dial - missus and I have always liked this. Quite a nice girly piece for her. See how it goes.


Azimth 55mm ltd ed 100pcs - the first pilot watch I liked. But never bought because I thought I could find a cheaper 55mm pilot. This one goes for about 4k. Is it too big for me?


The watch I have been eyeing for 10yrs but never did buy and now the price keeps going up - it has doubled since then already. Now over 10k and I missed the chance to buy from collectorstime at 6k last year. Twice. Not so keen already. Chronoswiss opus.


The first rolex that i liked. Almost pulled the trigger on several occassions but ended up with a TT white faced daytona w dia markers instead. Only to sell it a year later.


Quite nostalgic, these pics.

On hindsight its amazing what this forum does to one. From never even looking at watches below 1k, I have hooted like 6 or 7 of them just this year, and thanks to you guys I am becoming more and more WIS.
From great value bambinos and then the monster mini white and now the fff. Not forgetting all my G shocks.

Thanks for the wonderful journey so far, guys.

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

Wow... Never know a 55 mm is so small!!! Boy... You have a big wrist!

Rearranged our watches a little.....


The winder holds watches that mainly has a date/day function that the missus have problems setting.

Errr chap pa lang watches. Some bought and sold so no real theme or focus.

But I know my next focus is the seiko snzh57 hahaha

 

[slow_mo]

Great collection. From PP to Swatch! And the Bambino earns a spot in your winder...

 

[Henabi]

Yatto... all the big watches sure look tiny on your wrist...

what lovely collections you have.

This thread introduced me to watch brands which I don't know about previously. Like Stowa, SteinHart, Orient, SevenFriday, Arbutus NY, FC, Azimuth etc.

I also learn to appreciate automatic watches even more via the various articles shared.

and of cuz, the wonderful bunch of people here. Not only do we share watches but also slices of our daily lives...

by the way, what happened to the Bambino gathering?? =P

 

[yattokame]

July sounds good. Let's try to make it happen. But if the bambino owners all turn up, it's going be more than double the previous meetup size.
Sourcing for a conducive location is going to be a headache.

Everyday a Seiko day, lol.

 

[Scribblemyname]

I just purchase visodate from allwatches as recommend by bro gaoxing84. Thanks.

Btw, any idea where to purchase Hirsch duke or similar strap for this watch? Will buy online if cannot find local shop.

How much did you bought at? Tempted to get one soon :\ saw my friend wearing one yesterday and it have the look of a "old school" watch esp the RED SUN.

 

[Azrielsc]

This picture got 2 of my fav stuffs!!

Btw strap from where ah?

what strap is this? looks great!

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!
