The Watch Thread - Part 9

Will rolex ever do an open case back???

haha i doubt so. they are famous for not changing or slow in reacting to change.

their closed non-signed back has been around for ages, maybe even since they started. haha

3rd party sapphire display casebacks are avail for rolex: http://www.customwatchconcepts.com/

Quintessential dive watch that embodies the history tie between the brand and underwater world since 1953.

It doesn't just tell time, it tells history.

* big thanks to 1 of the watch bro(Babych**) in recommending the watch!

congrats and enjoy your watch in good health! a watch is a piece of jewellry that happens to tell time. more importantly, your rollie tells you that you made it!

some history on dive watches:

there's still time to acquire other iconic dive watches to complete your collection: panerai radiomir, omega seamaster 300, blancpain 50 fathoms, etc...

Swiss Watch (thats their shop name) at Jpo is selling for ringgit 11,xxx (before any discounts, its thats even possible)

those who're keen on the new seiko turtles better borrow a loupe from the watch shop and eyeball the dial carefully. it seems QC is not quite there and misalignments have been spotted. caveat emptor!

hmmm I think it depends on the user as well? So far I am pretty happy with my turtle. dont want to see also, if got then get upset for nothing hahaha

 

[TeenTitan01]

How do they say it in EDMW?

"It's true. I am the rotor"?

22k micro-rotor!

1) no stock
2) too heavy
3) not bling enough
4) not rolex
5) wife tell him to save the money if not no piaks
6) suddenly ask if rolex is better? or GS?
7) AD salesgirl not chio
8) no free gift, water or wine served
9) only give 15%, not 20% and all we know 20% is not likely possible
10) or purely seannie is just ********ting us.

see which one tio.

I tried already mah u not listening, weight surprising not heavy, matt is even nicer, no rolex but lookalike wannabe can smoke thru, wife gave permission already anyway no piak doesnt matter i not handicap i still got my left hand, rolex overpriced not for me and still prefer tudor vintage look (sorry chicken backside & jonlee), got free gifts belt and something which i not bother, salesgal conspirm not cio is aunty, and last but not least no bs from me.

From now onwards, all the way ish tudor liao. Wont be coming back to this thread after i buy. Thanks to everyone who has helped in one way or the other.
