Explorer not consider sport right?
I am surprised to see airkkng is considered a sport model.

Thought explorer (and exp 2) would be sports models. Personally, I dont think air king is sports model.

 

[gaoxing84]

air king is not sports.but now they placed it under sports

explorer yes.

Chinatown area, far east plaza or the guy post above you. Buying from grey shop dealers is better as they provide certain warranty services (shop warranty, lemon law, mode of payment (installment via CC) VS buying directly from a personal seller.

shop warranty useless if watch under warranty.
lemon law don't work with grey dealers.
instalment via CC + 3-4% same same. LPPL
shop charges more of course as they have to pay rent.

Thanks both. Would prefer cash payment if its the cheaper option. However, been looking at carousell so far but cant find any. Saw Chuan watch had one peviously but was gone in like a day and i forgot the price. Whats the going rate for brand new?

I cant recommend servicing to you becuz I hasnt send mine yet. Will keep track on this post.

But I think anything is possible, so it is either go to a very reputable one or back to RSC to be safe.
