The Watch Thread - Part 9

[gaoxing84]

How many of you guys were in sg roc previously? Since late 2000s I was pretty active in sg roc and of late, the regulars there seemed to have disappeared. And the forum there has become v quiet. Any idea why?

In sgroc since 2009 but never talk much lol very quiet there. WUS got much more info. Ang moh loves to share their pics

What does the peeps here think of the new Tag Heuer Aquaracer 300m? It seems to me a better deal than the Tudor BB as both use the same movements, supposedly at the same price range, but the Aquaracer has a ceramic bezel. In addition, the Aquaracer is a nice alternative in terms of design to the Sub looks.

Of course, that will ultimately depends the street price of the Aquaracer when it hits Singapore. I'm currently eyeing the Titanium DLC Black with yellow, though the black and silver is nice too!

Still tudor wins Haha.
Different feel when wearing a tag and a tudor.

Somehow I feel that your strap is too sporty for the world timer... prefer their original cordovan strap or similarly simple.

Written in blood using HardwareZone Forums app

i feel the same way too, but thats the only blue strap i have to match the blue dial haha

anyone knows what model is this?

WUS & TRF got a lot more activities n info sharing going on. SGROC seems like a ghost town nowadays. Only the trading platform is much more active.

i would say the tag is a unproven modern design whereas the blackbay is a tested vintage inspired design which is a derivative of the sub which have been around for 60 years.

Yea, but there are only so many Sub derivatives that I can own and wear haha.

Hahaha no, I think our taste is the same, as in, I love the Sub and its derivative looks, but I don't want my whole collection or the bulk of it to be the Sub homage look. I prefer a more.... varied collection.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with owning a Pelages, BB and a Sub but I'm just the type to get different designs instead of focusing on one.

 

[Thoughtexperiment]

You organize la bro. You regular haha
