QUOTE(nando @ Dec 30 2010, 10:49 PM) Oris ...you cant go wrong...but neither it is a spectacular brand.... Those are really good advise With your budget..perhaps compare a bit more wider.......Ball, Fortis...I assume you like Formula 1...some think Tag's F1 series are actually good representative of racing watches....although some might not like the quartz models... If you're a bit more adventurous, try look into Laco, Stowa, Steinhart...Even the lower priced Christopher Ward has gotten people excited here... You'll learn 2 important things here in this forum 1. never spend on designer watches. 2. buy what you like. Listen to opinions, etc, visit websites, see photos, and go for one that will capture your heart. It took me 6 months to zoom down to my Sinn U1 and i am still madly in love with it... all the best.. |

QUOTE(veron208 @ Dec 31 2010, 02:17 PM) For the brands that you mentioned, I only knew Ball which was out of my budget. The cheapest Ball was close to 8k Entry level Ball Fireman is ~2k.http://www.watchart.com/page02.php Bought from them before, reputable seller.

QUOTE(patryn33 @ Jan 1 2011, 05:39 AM) I don't think so, Orient USA is selling them at 50% off plus a free US$200 watch 2-3 weeks ago. Really? Possible to get one now?if that hard to get why the 50% discount, sell them at MSRP! and yes they do hack and hand wind. Added on January 1, 2011, 9:29 am QUOTE(veron208 @ Jan 1 2011, 09:26 AM) Hmm I think I will go for ORIS after all. I dun care much of what movement since i dun know much of it. As long as I love it and wear it all the time .. it will be worth it. This post has been edited by ck77: Jan 1 2011, 09:30 AM |

QUOTE(-Max91- @ Jan 1 2011, 08:16 PM) K..this is what happened...I did not wear my watch 2 days ago, so today when I see my watch, it stops ticking[which is perfectly normal since it is an automatic watch]....so...i took up the Manual provided and I read it...so the manual said that to re-power the watch, pull out the crown to "position 1", so i did as what is written...and they also mentioned "Never wind it fully, 5 - 10 turns should be sufficed]..so...I wind if clockwise[as stated in the manual] to around 9 turns.....so then...the watch starts to tick......however...when the "second hand" reaches around the 56th second in the dial, it stops momentarily for about 1 minutes at the same position[means it stops ticking there]...then....after around 1 minutes....the "second hand" continue to tick again.....and reaches around the 56th second again...it stop momentarily AGAIN for abou 1 minute and this process had been repeating for the past 5 hours.... ok, did you wear the watch? or you just leave it there and observe? |
