The Watch Thread - Part 5

[HorfunKing]

Talking about manly watches maybe I can give a lady point of view. I think in terms of manly factor I will rate tool watches like divers the top of the list. It must also be chunky for a sense of presence- having said that have to be proportional to ur wrist size cos a watch that dwarfs your wrist won't help in the manly factor. Personally find deep sea very manly. Can also look at bigger sized Pam's and maybe also breitling.

Was using it too before changing to note 2 and now note 3.

Splendid taste if u ask me. Black bay or black shield. Potential classics.

I was almost going to get the Deepsea but upon scrutiny it looked like a submariner with a double chin, for lack of better way to put it. The chunk of metal that is the case is too big for the bezel, and for Rolex the focus must be on the classic design of the dial and bezel not the metal case. Also the strap is just 21mm and tapers really too much to just 16mm!....for the hunk of a watch that it is. For watch this size, strap should start at 24mm and taper at most to say 22mm. Saw a lady with a Deepsea once near Sim Lim, looked not bad on her.

No way! There for holiday? Haha my fav city of the world. Went there in 2011 and fell in love with the city. Going back there this year end!

A bit of work, a lot of pleasure...

Bloody jet lag. Been up since 1am! It's 5am now and still can't sleep...
