Flying to Seoul for business. First time, is it cheaper to get watches there?

I find incheon prices better than city prices. U can get 5% off but city lotte or dfs outlets are pretty firm on not giving discounts.

Royal oak dual time, nice! Not considering the chrono?

like also but is leather strap.. if to choose chrono i will choose coern's ROC..

The new 2014 ROO only comes with leather strap does it give another rubber strap? Mine ICT buddy got hooked after i show him all the AP models..:s13:

Dual time is still based on the 15300 39mm case and thus sporting the older dial design with the AP wording at 12 o clock etc. But there are also die hard fans of the 15300. For me i prefer to larger 41mm current models.

but dual time nv comes in 41mm maybe in future... 2mm not much different . what i loves abt the dual time.. JLC movement, AP logo, power reserve complication and dual time. No sec hand make the watch not as busy..:D The different shade of blue from the blue color dial is stunning from photo... need to see a real one to make my decision. Can beo ROO also.

I was referring to the ROC actually.

But i do like the improvements made on the 2014 ROO models. Ceramic crown and pushers, see through case back, new mega tapisserie design etc.

Liat Towers has less or no discount as compared to AD but the warranty is 5 yrs instead of 2.

Boutique only 5%, last month I asked for both dual time and day date black or blue dial no stock...only dual time white

For ap its 2+1 so 3 years warranty if not bought from their boutiques

Generally if you not gg for special material models, the 3 year is sufficient. If u gg for fc, ceramic, etc, could be safer to get 5 yrs. when i changed the ceramic Bezel for my 1 yr old fc diver, the bezel costs 4k. Lucky under warranty and they admitted is manufacturer fault so foc.
