can't tell from pic, can you circle it red and attached a higher res pic?
no idea what U talking about.
what is buzz mecanique? any pics to compare? what brand? and model?

this is the watch that i bought..the brand is BUZZ MECANIQUE..hve u heard of it?

Didn't like the Suunto?  Here's another one of my contributions to the affordable watch thread:




Seiko 7S35 Automatic Dress Watch w/Leather Strap

A friend of mine in the states recommended I purchase from "Wayne's Watch World" at www.roachman.com in 2005.
I had planned a trip to Malaysia prior to this, and later learned that this guy deals out of a watch store in Penang.
So during my trip to Malaysia I was able to inspect it and pick it up at the store.  At the time, of course, I did not know that I would be living on that beautiful island.
I also did not know that some thief would break into my home, including the lock on my room door, and steal my watch among other things.

The automatic movement was just "okay" and as good as expected for RM ~700.  The counterweight/rotor did not spin as freely as the ones in ETA/Valjoux movements.
Quality and detail is fairly good - I might consider buying another one.  Of all the well known mainstream brands, Seiko is one of my favorites.  Great price for style, brand recognition, quality and ease of service.  Yes inexpensive so many people own one, but they have a huge selection of styles.

Very elegant dress watch for nice occasions or even everyday wear.  Many people think that it costs more than twice as much as what I paid.  Seiko uses Hardlex instead of Sapphire Crystal.
Exhibition caseback with 23 jewels and 21,600 bph.

Cheers!

i am also brand concious, but after looking at my dad's new seiko ananta, it change my whole perception towards seiko.

that is not spring drive.

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

go through forumers virustar and davis. better discount.

I'm pondering the same thing as some of them have brand new watches at even better prices than the online shops.
I guess if they have a 98+% rating it's less dubious lol.

ML do not have many inhouse movement. They are like Chronoswiss using vintage movement and making big improvements on it

not 100% of course, so long it is not a AD that always raise a few question.
do your research well and u'll be rewarded.

what kind of Seiko fake?
anyway, on certain forum, U find ppl reporting fake watches found on ebay.

today ppl are smart at posting replicas on ebay.
when they are from the far east of developing countries be extra careful, thats plain common sense.
when seller ask U to wire, of course stay away. God knows they have buddy or clones in the forums/ebay that leave them good reviews.
blogger I think is Local or from the southeast asia.

with Seiko movement make in Asia (outside japan) one may get very badly QC rejected item.
or a poorly made Seiko movement in a fake case.
so when ppl say Seiko is 100% inhouse, issue is 100% inhouse does not always translate to 100% made in Japan.
I didn't see a Japan rule on what to takes to state "made in Japan", same rule as swiss?
thats a grey area.

can someone recommend me a men watch for around RM400. prefer with the "sweeping" seconds hand. if possible with lowest depreciation value.

I could probably get the explored for around 7 to 10k. Depending on condition. Btw, a lot of places have sold out on the silver visodate.

any casio g-shock collectors here?

another watch for your consideration
This running on jap movement.
