The Watch Thread - Part 9

[i_got_a_question_to_ask]

My next target...still saving up to get it! Haven't seen any used pieces on the market yet...

Btw, what is the typical discount for JLCs if buy from ADs ah? Last I heard standard 15%?

Under table can 20% locally. I bought mine at 20%.

That sounds surprisingly affordable (if one had the budget). But is a basic Rolex worth it or in terms of price as compared to some other luxury brands?

My wife told me dont buy rolex too common and too many fakes out there. Then i diam diam liao.

Speedmaster how much huh?

Think it's seamaster..

Speedmaster how much huh?

Very expensive. Later suddenly cannot work.
Later no resell value. Later not Satki in front of your bosses.
You use 10k note wrap around your wrist better. Rmb to coat it with plastic so can resist from water.

 

[3sth3r]

Need a watch recommendation.
Budget 10K
Clean face, prefer non chrono.

It was down to cartier ballon bleu, reverso, datejust vs submariner. Read a review on submariner on ablogtowatch. Gave me the confidence to buy submariner as my first rolex. The purchase journey was fun, definitely addictive. Hoping for more milestones in life so that I can acquire more in near future! Loving this thread!

I'm somewhat surprised you've been asking the folks here for assistance since you portray your Wife to be some kind of watch expert
