Being a man of action is a 24/7 job, even on Father's Day

A new inspiration for wrist shot here?

Forward some years and the scene is different...

This is SCVE033



Not sure about the grey one.

Grey one is SCVE029

at your budget i think the best you can get will be the sumo le ba? or the cheaper SKX007.. another cheap(er) option will be orient mako series which keeps excellent time i heard..

criteria is quartz liao (right?).. a rather different range altogether..

Where can I get the SKX007? Btw, so Sumo is a better investment than Criteria?


Sorry, still a newbie.

I checked on Chino Watches from a previous URL, it's about $535? Is that cheap? Or is there somewhere that is cheaper?

Remember to factor in GST!

oh ya! That's about $600? Any local shops sell it? I wanna try it out on my wrist. I have a small wrist (about 6.5inch)

the sumo is a jdm (japan domestic market) variant.. and runs on the more sophisticated 6R15 movement which can manually wind and hacks.. it probably will be a bit above your stated budget though..

anyway.. you should be able to get your seiko fixes at k2 watches as shared by fellow edmw-ers earlier:

K-2 Watch Co
845 Geylang Rd, Singapore 400845
Phone:6746 0270

or you can try hunt around on carousell?

p.s. am newbie also.. still looking around for that "perfect" watch to get started..

haha yea, I'm thinking if the extra $300 for a sumo as compared to criteria ($315 at Bencoolen) is worth for my budget.

Hi, may I know if I bring a watch with bezel and crystal to change at K2 , I can collect it on the same day ?

2nd question, where will be a good place to service Sinn ? I can a Sinn U1 (few years old) but the power reserves is getting shorter ... normally such service can collect on same day or some time later ??

Thanks in advance ..

 

[villan]

Anyone know where to get this?

You can try Mustaffa for the black dialed version.

They also have the non-chrono blue dialed piece.

Change at K2 should be ok. You bringing your own parts?

Sinn servicing via THG... wait long long... at least 3 weeks...
