I think budget flights are for students looking to see the world and for comparison if Silkair is the other carrier. Because at some point in life you want to really enjoy your holidays and be pampered once you're on the flight...

Budget flight < 3 hrs still ok. Took it to Bali and will do that again. HK, TW, AU etc must take full flight.

Is it worth it?

Almost hooted an Omega Planet Ocean 45.5mm at Watches Of Switzerland.

List price = S$8,100 with 24mths interest-free instalments.
Pay 21mths only if you sign up for the plan.

Can someone recommend better offers locally at our Authorised Dealers?

Many thanks in advance!

The credit card interest free instalment plan works out effectively to be an 12.5% discount only.

Any better deals or there, Gents?

omega discount usually controlled at 8%. but I still can't imagine paying 7k for a PO which I paid like 4k for mine last time, albeit now new ver got 8500 mvt and ceramic bezel.

I think that is a reasonable deal if you are new to the game, unless you have another AD to go to.

As someone mentioned, alternative is pre-owned market

yeah, the previous version of PO was only going at $5550 before discount (back then). after the 8500 movement + ceramic bezel is out, the price went up to $8.1k... omg.

I find that ladies can carry off big watches well, may be they wear it like a fashion accessory. Don't know if anyone watched TV last night about SPCA, there was a lady volunteer who wore a big 7Friday and it looked nice on her.

Swee mak mak! Your wife looks tall! Easy to pull off the 47mm case.

That's the problem with the 305 for me, makes my wrist look girly!
