iirc none of us has got the steel bracelet. u can go any where to get it resize. no pt paying CW to get it done.
leather can be easily adjusted to fit you. no worries.

try Guinand series 20, its only ~3k with shipping. movement is nicely decorated with blue screws.
or if U want a chrono with moonphase the cheapest is http://www.genius1953.de/en/index10.html. the cheapest name brand chrono moonphase is longines and its over 7k after discount.

+1 to Guinand 20 series, one of the most affortable ETA7750 out there. The only concern for me is the smallish 38.4mm size.

Can someone help me which one to decide??

ppl that freq here my guess they own at least 2 maybe 3.

@ ck77 it may not wear small.
the series 40 is ~40mm and it look pretty good here.

I am getting a nomos its 37mm and many ppl is saying those 35mm wear very nicely due to the lug to lug size.

Hmm...still waiting for my CW to come. I have checked the tracking number from the royal postal service in uk and it mentioned that they have passed it to Malaysia postal service. Anyone got any idea how can i track it?? Is it using the same tracking number as the royal postal???

I don't think u can track it after its with Msia post.
I couldn't track it once its passed to USPS.

yeah...you can't track registered mail once it is passed to your local postal service..e.g. USPS 1st class priority can't be tracked once it's passed to Pos Malaysia/Australia Post..

Ok...the only thing i worried was they wrote my address wrongly, or i should say incomplete to be exact. All the jalan and post code is written down but the taman name is not complete=.= for example, my house is taman bunga, they only write "ta....", 2 alphabet thats all =.=

I emailed them and they said it should be ok, i still can receive it wor......hopefully really no prob la =S

james u choose the 12P service?

weirdly i have not rcv any tracking number since ordering one week ago...just that the status is complete in CW website under "My Dashboard"

Yes bear. I think it will be abit slow due to christmas season. Many orders have been placed. Therefore, it takes time for them to process your order too. They will only inform you through email when your item has been despatched. Maybe you can drop them an email to ask for some updates =)

They gave me the tracking number for my CW but I can't track it cause number they give doesn't follow the format in the website they gave and they say that won't work and will gimme a new tracking number once it bypass royal mail @@ but still haven't get from them

-------------------------------------------
-Edit-

Swt...how come so weird geh?? just now my brother got call from immigration that my watch arrived the custom departent d but will charge RM85...is it normal? =.=

my bro said the customs officer called him saying that you need to be charged RM85 in order for the item to enter malaysia =.=

Watches are tax free in malaysia. Unless the parcel include other taxable item. i.e. leather goods

maybe they finding means to tax? tax the leather band?

US import tax on watch is strange, the break down the cost of band, case etc and tax.. total is ~US$25 for watch that cost under US$5K.
but my watch from CW didn't get tax at all.

if that's the case, there show how stupid and ignorance msian custom is. any sane person knows that the strap is part of the watch.
