That's a Maison Celedon Imperial. It does indeed have a Chinese heart but it's not your normal Chinese watch. The WUS thread below is a very detailed review of it.

Celadon Imperial Impressions

My colleague wears this and the cream paper dial is stunning with the blue hands in real life.

i want to see it in the flesh :)

... and i won't write off the watch just because its "made in china".

i'd pay heed to the feedback from WUS - its a very different forum as in that part of the world they pay less attention to brand/marketing and status.

Thanks you all so much for all your comments. Probably going to give it a pass, still a student so I don't think a very dressy watch is appropriate for me at the moment.

Frankly I wonder if any local guys bought the watch? To me it's pure hype. Waaaay over priced for what it is and I do like and support Chinese brands..but of course don't dare to say anything on WUS or the supporters will eat me alive..

i don't think its any more hype than any new watch brand that's launched without their own in house movement.

worth it or not depends on whether you like the materials, design and finishing.

but why are you afraid of airing your views on WUS? its an open forum and there are always fans and detractors having decent open discussions.

well... that is why there are so many watch brands :s13:

WUS has forumers who are very extreme in their opinions but there are much, much more fair-weather watch lovers...

I was on the wait list and was offered SGD1300 for it. Should I take up the offer? Still studying right now, so I'm not sure if it is appropriate for me. The main mental block is the thought of parting with 1k+.

Wow the face looks like the GS SBGH035
