Hoot riao then dont think too much. :o enjoy the watch! I guess i was lucky and got a good deal from Lazada. Btw Skywatches = Zen Watches on lazada.



Yeah, already hoot liao so not gonna think much. But its good to know that there are much cheaper options to get watches. Thanks for sharing bro :)

And I absolutely love my SKX007 jubilee. Simple and elegant :)

Yours might be the J model that's why more exp?

Nope, mine is not the J version. The J version cost another $100+ more. Thats what I was told when I was at Skywatches weeks back to get my SEIKO Skx007.

If I were to get a modded Rolex, I would definitely go with madeworn or the Les Artisans modded ones. Classsy and unique. Black rolexes are nice too, just not as unique. Bamfords and pro hunter have the best looking pvd/dlc coatings imo

Ok guys, don't bother going to RSC if you have no idea of the service history of the watch or it's not been serviced with them before, and want to regulate it.

The put it on the timing machine and as I noticed, it was running 10-11 seconds fast a day.

They refused to regulate my piece for me even though they said that there was no problems with the oiling or condition of the watch despite the CSO initially telling me that as long as I had 10mins, they could regulate it.

They wanted me to pay $920 for servicing when all the watch needs is a simple regulation.

It was a rather painful process having to deal with RSC.

they open the watch to inspect oil?
Most AD service center wouldn't do regulation without doing the complete overhaul.

It was inspected for authenticity not too long ago by RSC and the tech comments were no oil drying problems.
