Ya man, am confusing myself too.
According to Thomas, it is 38mm with acrylic crystal. ST19 is not a big movement anyway. But does it matter?  Those LE sold out long time ago, it was USD490 per piece then. The sapphire back just add another USD8 ; it is a steal! Was quoted ~RM600 for my speedy sapphire back from Swatch  This post has been edited by ck77: Nov 27 2010, 10:37 AM |

QUOTE(cyclonez @ Nov 27 2010, 01:46 PM) hi guys sorry to disturb got something to ask... hehe I'm afraid the only place to go is Thong Sia. i'm a noob in watch and to cut the story short i have a seiko kinetic that i bought few years back Then when i leave it at home for some time and it dont work anymore...anyway to fix it? i've ask uncle google and found thong sia but the place is freaking jam and i got no time to go there on weekdays...anyone know anywhere that can fix it or the watch is totally dead and as good as to change a new one?? Yes, if the repair cost is too high, might as well get a new watch, unless sentimental value exist. Alternatively, bring back to the shop you bought the watch from, ask them to send on your behalf.

QUOTE(choen @ Nov 27 2010, 03:33 PM) I think the current HK Seagull '1963 reissue' are not authorized versions. Am not sure how's Seagull HK and US operation. As long as produced by them, it doesn't matter. The first true chinese airforce chronograph was released 1965. Seagull currently offers a limited edition reissue. http://www.usseagull.com/EnProductShow.asp?ClassID=81&ID=107 Someone already has one here: http://forums.watchuseek.com/f72/tianjin-s...ics-462781.html » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « The original from the 60s?: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « I like that logo. Did it inspire Starfleet's?  And judging by the look and selling price, I'll definitely go for Seagull Hk one  |

Sorry cyclonez, don't owned one and I've no idea of kinetic watch.
They got no branches, give them a call and perhaps you can courier the watch to them. |

One of the few Tissots that I like, very classy. With similar price range and look, you might consider Mido as well.

QUOTE(sembilan @ Nov 29 2010, 11:19 AM) Finally got the visodate. It sure is hard to find as the model I want (silver with white dial) is sold out in a lot of places. Very happy with it but needs some getting used to because of the size. Congrats man! Now is pictures time and write some review.  |

QUOTE(jolipoli81 @ Nov 30 2010, 11:53 AM) just being curious, why does this watch cost around 10k? what are the technologies in this watch? I think you should read more Panerai's history.In summary, no, no special technology in the watch. Only hour and minute. Why so expensive? People like it, demand > supply. |

QUOTE(ancs88 @ Nov 30 2010, 12:06 PM) I know it's almost impossible to find one at the moment.... I just lost two expensive watches and now still in recovery mode! Sorry about your loss man I know it's possible to get the new base models around 12k++.  This is cheapest I see so far, 14k new http://www.mudah.my/Panerai+Base+PAM000+logo+NEW-7780953.htm |

Found one PAM176 and was offered RM14.5k! 176 is used.The BNIB PAM000 cost USD3800 which is around RM12k! http://watchcrowd.com/watch-forum-listing/...0-M-Series-3799 Added on November 30, 2010, 12:15 pmAny idea on this? Looks like a replica to me? http://www.mudah.my/Panerai+PAM+177+H+Lumi...ina-7624068.htm Added on November 30, 2010, 12:18 pm Heard the Cailbre S movement have some problems! 000 if you trust the seller and shipping. 177 no idea, can always choose to deal in Richment. I would! Calibre S, quartz that cost so much  Calire 1887 = Seiko movement, and TH claimed is 'in-house' This post has been edited by ck77: Nov 30 2010, 12:25 PM |

QUOTE(choen @ Nov 30 2010, 05:00 PM) I think these ones do not have actual good water resistance, ironically. For me, diver should have 2 basic criteria; screw-in crown and screw-in caseback.Added on November 30, 2010, 5:02 pmOh I am mistaken. Just clicked on those links. There are other 'diver' watches that look like this, big and brutal, but with poor water resistance. Those fashion watch diver usually don't hold good WR. |

Don't be so harsh guys, youngster don't care much about movement and value.
One must have 1-2 'showing off watches' and Tag and Oris fit into the bill nicely among younger peers. a997862, yes you could get Tag F1 (non-chorno) under 2k. While for Oris, I think you need to pay a bit more for its entry level automatic. Get whatever you like and enjoy it! |
