Very nice piece. I like the way longines execute the roman indexes. the subtle inclusion of the PR n date dosen't clutter the dial.

Affordability is subjective. Appreciation is the most important thing i feel. Some watches simply punches way above their price point. that itself is priceless.

Fully agreed. Case in point, Seiko. I myself have a SKX diver and I really think that the finishing and quality of it is above the rest in that price bracket.

The retro looking "zi xuan" Chinese watch as well. The movement is quite pretty for what it's worth. :)

I'm now in this shopping mall called Gaysorn. Which is opposite Central World. Many watch shops. They also have an AD, Pendulum and here are other Nomos models, Ahoi


Hey TRT, nice Nomos pieces there!

Would you mind helping me to check the price of the club automat datum dunkel?

I'll really appreciate it. :)

Sorry, I left already. From my conversation with the AD it seems safe to assume the 15% AD discount along with 6% VAT. Best to wait for SGD appreciate THB. Now circa 23, 6 months ago 25

Should be "21 zuan" or 21 jewels. Seagull brand. :)

This watch is so freakin' eerily similar in looks to The PAM.
Only "saving grace" is a different name ...
Now I know how ppl feel when they see the Steinhart Ocean One after owning a Submariner ...

Other than the name, Gruppo Gamma does not have crown guard. Quality wise, its just as good as Pams. But the PVD vanguard another story already.

My attempt at "a-la-yatto's" style.

Agreed haha, so that's why some much prefer to get the real McCoy.

Imagine friends asking you, "Is that a Pam?"

"No, its a Gruppo Gamma"

Lol.

Anyway homages exist so they fulfill the needs of a different price range. so yep. But have to say it looks quite nice. :)
