The Watch Thread - Part 8

[All in a Day]

If you look like a spartan (based on popular culture imagery e.g. the movie 300), then small watches may not suit you.

In any case, the JLC he is wearing isn't exactly that small and is an iteration of the reverso in one of the larger dimensions.

To add on, black dial would somewhat reduce the formality of a smaller watch compared to a white/light colour dial watch, all things equal.

What are your thoughts about hooting some watches in Malaysia, considering the weak MYR now?

Names like Wing Wah and City Time popped up on Google.. not sure about credibility though. Will be going to KL next weekend so maybe going to do some window shopping

Not at all.

A JLC Reverso is the epitome of class & distinction.

Whether you go to cortina, THG, sincere or dickson... it's the same watch.

Main difference... service level. Which is pretty subjective and personal.

discount wise. Depends whether the people here are kind enough to share n pm you... especially just a few weeks ago, there was a small dispute regarding watch discount in this thread

yes, usually they stock 1 piece per model unless its popular then they stock more.
they don't hold stock for most.
