Got my watch today, happyyyyyyyy
just want to share here
sorry pictures taking with phone..

nice watch ~buy how much ?

Hmm may I ask what's the use of chronograph? IMO it's just there to make the watch look nice only...

stop watch.

RRP rm1399.

any pic of the back?

when to vilaram warehouse sales... Tag Heuer, Ball, Graham, Oris, Omega all have discount at least 25% ~ 33%....Graham selling for 20k + 33% + 5% discount.... and other brands on display RRP at least 10K.... why dont have sell something with the price tag RM 4K++ arghhhhhhhhhhh

does this means the brand is not really worth the price ?
the entry level watches for zenith are the elite series ?

A Fossil watch bought in March has already rusted in less than 8 months. It is marked stainless steel, mind. 5atm water resistance some more, and I have never even swam with it!

Really defines what a fashion watch really is.

At the same time, an Adidas watch that belongs to my wife also has a rusted case back, after less than 2 months of usage (for yoga!). It is of course, manufactured by the Fossil group.

Examples of the rust on the Fossil watch:









"This warranty does not cover
-Any defects in materials and workmanship of battery, case, crystal, strap or bracelet
-Damage resulting from improper handling, lack of care, accidents or normal wear and tear
-Water damage unless marked water-resistant."

The warranty sounds more like the sort of indemnity that says 'once you have given us your money, you can piss off'.

Beware. Other brands made by Fossil: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fossil,_Inc.#...esigned_Watches

(I must say I thought that Guess was made by them also).

Ahhh....I still haven't got my watch yet T_________T

did u see any tag heuer F1 there? how much discount they give?.. how about rado ceramic white?.

sorry for the poor quality of the photo

don't get your thought process.
how did U come to the conclusion of "does this means the brand is not really worth the price ?"

entry level are certainly the Elite. no complication cheaper! elite are strip down version of the EP.

50m does not mean U can swim. 100M then can swim.
50m is like washing hands.

Received this a few days back - Orient Racing Automatic CFT00002M



Power reserve indicator, sapphire crystal, display case showing a nicely signed rotor...can't ask for more for the price I paid. However, having second thoughts about owning this as I am eyeing another non-horology related purchase.

Interested buyers? Thing is watch is not in Malaysia at the moment.

did U post of CW forum to see if other ppl are facing the same issue?
U may wanna email CW and let them know its past mid Nov!
maybe can get discount!

Added on November 23, 2010, 10:29 pmthats kinda typical affordable are generally better sellers.
LVMH sales All Tag go for 50% off.

what do U mean by Graham selling for 20K +33% +5%?
is it 20k off plus 38% off!

other brands RRP is at least 10K but whats the discount? after 70% is ~4K isn't that within your budget?

Duh! Of course I know that!
That's what I mean... it rusted without ever having been near water!

It was a present from my wife, who does not know any better when it comes to watches...

Got my first Tissot last weekend. Bridgeport with ETA2892-A2 movement.

it's one of the new model released this year. got it around RM1.9k after discount.

So you are saying, having corrosion in less than a year is reasonable for stainless steel watches, albeit from fashion brands?

Even if I hardly use this particular one? Ok I need to chill. Just shocked that stainless steel from this manufacturer can rust while the watches that I wear daily for rough and tumble work do not.
