Bencoolen, K2 (at tanjong katong complex), skywatches (chinatown), are some of the recommended places... if you have time go down look at models, ask price, google, then decide if want to get on the spot.

You could buy the SGDZ013 for about 2.4 if you pre-ordered before it sold out like hotcakes

The SBGA011 is about 4.5 after discount and evading GST direct from JP. (Cheating a bit here)

Sometimes can't expect one shop to have lowest price for every watch mah. Just searched, $168++ at CreationWatches. I dunno shop price e.g. H2 Hub or City Chain.

 

[radiancez567]

A blur lady colleague innocently asked if that was a Rolex.. but I can reply confidently, without feeling offended, that "Nope. The boss doesn't pay me well enough for me to get a Rolex. Thanks for the compliment. It's juz a Seiko."

Eh the last portion. I wear mine. Also kena say eh Siao Wei Rolex ah. Haha I say Bo leh. Seiko nia. No money for Rolex. Haha.
They say wah from far see like Rolex. Haha.
