Morning yatto, I believe you're looking at the quartz SCEB009. It's a JDM, I think Big Time will be a good bet as your first avenue. Can try to give them a call and see if they have it or if they can bring in.

Edit: Checked for you liao, they do have it. $302. http://www.bigtimesgp.com/brands/seiko-jdm/

Hmmmm, my leather strap lost most of it's leather smell and starting to smell not so good, so I used some mild hand soap to wash it. Do any of you wear leather straps EVERYDAY? Or do they need to rest and switch around with another watch? I got office job and only sweat a bit walking to and from office.

I'm sure this applies to watches?

Travellers returning to Singapore to pay GST for shopping purchases

applies to any goods, including watches and luxury bags. this policy is donkey years old, mainly to stop people who trade in such goods rather than the average singapore going on tour.

before every long holiday ICA will re-issue this "warning". such legislation exists in many countries. i know a lot of frequent fliers but i don't know anyone that has actually gotten stopped and charged before.

similar case happened to a singaporean business woman who kena stopped at india customs. she apparently hid 23.5 million rupees (0.5 million SGD) worth of jewellery inside her underwear!

I wear leather straps everyday, the best advice I can offer is to rotate every two days. In that way, your strap gets to "rest" and your watches get to wind. Its a win win situation for me.

Anyone bought from yobokies before? Feel like getting the custom bezel and dial to mod my snzh57. What's the estimate wait time?
