Only a banana for lunch!!!

TGIF so decide to take something light for lunch

Care to share more abt this what seagull sg aqua terra thing...?

I say save up for the ML. The skeletonizing looks much much better. I also love how loud it ticks actually. Audible and my frens always joke if i was carrying a time bomb!

Conversation piece definitely!

Not hard to imagine y they got into trouble pretty quickly considering how well these sold internationlly from Seagull.sg

Haha my wrist is 7 inches.
Sweat easily so leather straps are out for me.
I like those thick chunky watches
Feel it brings out a watch presence
Of cos the watch must look nice and suit the wrist


Anyway I saw nautilus annual calender.
Mind sharing why u didn't consider it?

For me I like divers, chronos, sports.
Prefer to have a few quality pieces for keeps
Instead of a collection of varied prices and get few wrist time

Oh I love the non-symmetry on my 5712. The pic was somewhat etched in my head ever since i saw it in a mag a few yrs back. But of course I am kicking myself now hahaha because yes the annual cal looks very nice - i helped a fren get his at a very good price from an AD.

I sweat easily too thats why i prefer bracelets. Nowadays so long as I like it and its affordable just go ahead anyway if no wrist time just sell it off to fund the next purchase lor......

For leather strapped watches i wear them on days I wouldnt sweat much. Another way is to change out to a cheap strap the moment I buy the watch.

Big watches also attracts a lot of knocks but well.....let it roll!

Didn't know it's banned. That makes the watch pretty "cool" given the resultant cult and anti-brand symbol it represents.

Clarification : Banned (from discussion)and troubles from the WUS moderators rather than legal I think..

Forums have different interests and image to protect..

They r still in business. Not sure if they restocking this piece though..

Oic. For me I find it troublesome to sell a watch so I rather buy something I really like and will likely keep like my breitling.
Met lowball ppl, many exchanges thru SMS over my Rolex sub 14060 which I wanted to sell that time
time spent waiting for buyers etc.

I admit big watches can cause lots of knocks
The sound of metal against metal is not a pleasant one
I usually place my wrist behind my back in crowded places to minimize knocks


But bottom line enjoy the watch or anything else
Take reasonable care but not to the extent of baby sitting it
Or else won't be happy cos always worrying

Aiya part and parcel of buying and selling lor. So long as both parties happy with the transaction can liao. Price not met then move on bah....

I was quite lucky lah; my TT daytona w dia markers sold within 2 days. Just a bit lower than my asking, and my YG DD sold within 2wks. Give and take a bit no problem

Wah, banned from discussion?? That makes me want one!!

 

[Emospence]

Anyone knows what's the best way to lay my hands on Seagulls in Singapore beside the small table at Jaben? Their price not too competitive..

Salary not sufficient for ML squelette.. feel like buying peasant version M182SK try try..
Dunno wat daikors here think abt Seagulls, or if they r banned like in WUS due to their "seagull Sg aqua terra".. lemme know if I need to remove this post..

Always thought that's a nice watch but went for Orient Star in the end..

Try here?
