Why why? Haha I am considered as the hipster kind? Rmb there as a list. Haha
Hey thanks!
Tag sold for omega haha. Always say wanna buy Rolex but never really take the plunge. Haha. Next will be 372 if my finances allow, flip 005. But my CFO say she will kill me if I get another time piece this year. Hahaha

Some on my list is the JLC master compress moon phase super thin or AP diver but kinda out of my league now
Daydreaming about Lange 1 nowadays. IWC perpetual calendar Portuguese kinda losing interest in it. Haha

A little off topic.... Made a strap case for myself with materials easily found from craft shops. Had difficulties finding a strap case that would hold all the straps with bigger buckles so decided that I would make 1 for myself.

Probably next project if I have time would be to make it an 11 strap holder instead of 10.

oh my bad, was looking at my secondary school teacher master compressor.
i was talking about the master control ultra thin moonphase.
but i think will be too thin and small for my size.
given my height and build.
just like the fit yatto boss.

so what options am i left with? haha what timepieces or maker suit my pattern? would like to hear some opinion :D

but just like the idea of it wearing with a suit

nowadays not many people really cares about what watches match what kinda dressing

Rolex already "smashed" that concept many years ago with James Bond wearing a Sub with Suit and Tie...
AP further that with Lebron James sporting a AP ROO/ROC with suits at various events.

Same goes for Hublot... always see Jose Mourinho wearing a Hublot in suits and tie...

And of course Richard mille with stars like Jackie Chan:

i love your rainbow watch strap and your blue + yellow strap.

care to share more about that?!

Can I hazard a guess that the rainbow strap was done by Maddog and the blue/yellow strap is by Combat strap?

:)

That's true. Maybe I try to act purist. I know I wouldn't wear a suit with my speedy and Pam. Usually my visodate.
But of course Rolex with tux is the James Bond feel.
Lebron baller leh. He can wear to events like these but not boardroom meeting.
Althought AP satki to wear to boardroom but compare to a JLC or PP dress watch, I feel it's a better overall match. Subtle and timeless.

Don't say already lol cannot afford any of the piece I listed. Hahaha

Saw a AP Shaq listed in Sg roc. The number 32 is colored differently from other numerals. Niceeeee

=:p=:p=:p=:p=:p

honestly... your watches looks good on your wrist... don't know how it can "look small" on your wrist since your wrist size not like yatto dai kor or JT2901 gor gor... they have big wrists so everytime see watches they must look at watches above 42mm :(

look at IWC pilot bah =)

well if you really wanna aim a dress watch and don't wanna hurt your wallet too much...

look no further than JLC reverso even thou it started out in the 1930s as a Polo sports watch but soon it became a must-have dress watch.

A JLC Reverso Classique iirc is ard $8500?

50% correct! :D
The blue/yellow strap is by Combat strap. The rainbow strap is a Kain Heritage strap with custom patina from Alexander of Dandy Shoe Care. :s22:
