another bargain brand to match Christopher ward price!

UHR chrono on ETA 7750 for ~RM$1500!
http://www.uhr.info/products/de/Chronograp...HR/UHR-283.html


The diver in ETA 2824 for RM$910
The dress watch ~RM$684

true, translator are built into browser (google Chrome), U can use that to get info.
with 4 weeks return policy and 5yr warranty and I found it recommended in WUS, I wouldn't worry too much.

the shipping cost is high at EUR$45, but U do get your watch next day and they do insure it at EUR$500. they only do Paypal or brand wire

lets not forget even chrono is listed for EUR$399, we don't pay the 19% VAT with shipping the watch would cost ~EUR$380.

how much will U be paying for the Gucci and Tag?
for both I think can get a nice Bulgari Diagono, I prefer that over these 2 watches.

that is not spring drive.
http://www.seikowatches.com/products/ananta/double_r_c.html

anyway, those Ananta are kinda mass produce for international market. the finishes are not as good as Grand Seiko or Credor.
I don't like the ananta moon phase watch design.

I like a classic GCLL997
http://www.credor.com/lineup/node/reference/gcll997.html

LOL if u had asked earlier u would have old a iconic bvlgari watch.
Tag always go for ~25%

Antea 390 - ETA 2824 with handmade German silver rotor
Antea black with date - ETA 2824

Added on November 14, 2010, 10:53 amI did state it is kind of mass produce. the production vol is certainly no Seiko 5 or Seiko premier.
the vol should be higher than those Japan Domestic model, since specific AD around the world do carry the collection.

Added on November 14, 2010, 11:01 amNOS = New old stock

at ~4K you maybe able to get a Maurice Lacroix Pontos Small Seconds for the mechanical watch


you should be able to buy anything that are quartz
eg Maurice Lacroix - Les Classiques Collection - GMT Round


want a chrono and branded will have to be NOS thru grey
eg

These Epos are a sweet deal!!!!

this quartz chrono maybe not, prices online are more than RM5.5K.
AD usually don't carry NOS. that model above is current.

resale value for quartz watches are bad. U spend 4K on it use a few yrs.. maybe can sell 1k+

anyway a cheaper alternative would be Maurice Lacroix Watches - Les Classiques Day Date Month Chronograph


are U like LiLFreaK going for Brand above everything? what other brands do you know?

else for ~4K can get. the cheapest branded with the same movement maybe Longines selling at 2X the price (http://shop.us.longines.com/watch-selector/l26734783.html)

I think okboy92 looking for chrono. With a quartz Tag Chrono he is looking at ~4.5-5K
for that price can get a nice Longines Hydroconquest chrono auto, then its sporty unlike the ML which is dressy.

I like the Longines Spirit Chrono, vintage look.

NOS go to varies AD and check them out, no special place other than collectorstime.com (they do not sell Local now, just export even they are base in KL)
still a student, brands like Sinn, Damasko invest in making a good solid case that is harder than regular steel.

it is possible just not big brands such as Panerai, Omega etc.
many brands listed on page one are small markers to keep cost low U can only get the online direct.

plenty of good reviews on fit and finished on these brands.
even Epos, few brands blue their screws. ML pontos are not as nice as their masterpiece collection.

U can get a quality Damasko, direct thru them or

Sinn 256, U can find it in Hour Glass (someone order it online from sinnwatches.com)
http://www.sinnwatches.com/proddetail.php?prod=si056


or Guinand (high quality movement is Rhodium plated, cost of Rhodium is higher than Gold), can even customize watch, they used to make Sinn watches, perhaps even Bell and Ross. Owner today is founder of Sinn.
