anyone manage to get CW C7?Any picture to hare?

Just managed to find it on CW website with leather strap but its out of stock

Wonder if they stock "Seagull" from China. Came across a Seagull Tourbillion . Not sure if any of the forumers have any experience with this brand

A friend bought a Milsub homage from MK2 watches. Have a look at their website -they allow minor customization . Am thinking of this as an alternative to building one with parts from Yuki or a watch with vintage movements from an independent maker

Hang Thai in Bangsar Village do have some SeaGull. You can go and check it out.
Can MKII's case fit a Rolex dial? If yes, will it consider a fake rather than a homage or franken?

there are lots of pics around

Added on July 26, 2010, 10:37 amQC vary quite a bit. it maybe cheaper to get it direct from them, but then it may not be worth the trouble.
I have met ppl having better success ordering from USA. They do a 2nd round of QC there. prices do start at ~US$4k

Thanks for the link, i was referring to those 157 pounds ones as its around my budget.

Normally they will come out with Auto ones with all their range?

what kind of silicon grease for watch available at malaysia?

What do u guys think about this watch? compared to the PRC200 Quartz Chrono?

U are looking at sale items or those Nearly new items?
new items, none of the chrono are near your budget.

they seem to have auto models for all their range. not sure if thats their goal

here, new ones...but all these priced at 157 pounds one are out of stock except those priced at 200+

nice if they introduce automatic c7 soon then im willing to pay 200+ for it

is CW the only 1 offering 200+p automatic watches?

are there other brand offering similar style automatic watches to the CW C7?

u guys never replace battery by urself~~????????????

after sent many emails to ask for status, I've received an email about my watch has been dispatched. Then I quickly checked in royal mail but still don't have any status yet, probably it takes time to update the info?
Just weird my $ refunded but order still haven't get canceled

swiss chrono auto, u can forget that.
china easy to find

cheap swiss auto watches? check page 1 post 1. Alot more brands are posted.


if are notified today that its shipped. U wouldn't get a status on Royal Mail immediately. I recalled it took me a day or so to get that status shown.
maybe they screw up, if so better right? free watch!

finally, got the my u1 yesterday, and also the sized the strap myself.......wanted to bring to shop but told myself, aiyaa..my first expensive timepiece.....i should be molesting it first...hahahaa

since last year, eyeing this watch..price then was about 5-6k, one shop in KL even trying to sell at 6k....but after Euro drop..and surveying the reliability of online purchase...i jumped for it

....all in i got it for 45xx...plus insurance and shipping.....
heard price increase September for Sinn...for those of you considering Sinn...time to get one..

no experience in writing review but all i can say is the dial is gorgeous, wearing is comfortable and accuracy still good.....a bit heavy but i dont mind...like the feeling of `cash' on my wrist..hehehehe
no frills watch...easy to read time, lume is okay for seeing time in dark....love the red/white combination of sweeping second hand......
only thing is my wrist on small side...resized the strap until the final hole...fortunately, can still fit... .!!

..should have listen to mummy and drink my calcium !!


just to share my excitement with my good buddies here..thanks to everyone who supported me to go for a Sinn...you guys know who you are..


hah...its here



cant wait to see the content



heartbeat increasing...



wohooooooo



dedicated to the page that injected the final poison...



finally...my small wrist attempting to support a monster tool...havent take off the plastic layer on the surface.....(sorry photo quality not good..must learn to capture better pics...)

Congrats, finally here
Please share how you order it and the processes

hehehehe..i got from sinnwatches....
if got Fedex acc, you save the shipping charges...if not, they charge 95 Euro....my shipping charge was abt RM 200 plus

order fairly easy...once you click on website to order, an individual will send you email, to deal and communicate with you..

i might be wrong but i have a feeling sinnwatches is not an outlet by itself....i think they pass to order to different agent...mine seems to be from Belgium...

only thing is what expecting a small gift la...catalogue, or calendar...but none..maybe because this is cheapest Sinn model kot..hahahah


posted almost same pics at MWF...but there a bit more `serious' then here...all heavy brands one....some more got people not agree with homage!!

Ya just saw your warranty card.
So got VAT waiver since you send your own Fedex?

This post has been edited by ck77: Jul 27 2010, 09:52 AM

i think so..NO VAT discount....my invoice said
watch 1025 euro
freight RM 222.30
insurance: 42.10
so total almost 4.5k...

hehehe...ck..go for one la..the finance series very nice oh...

i actually like the U2...the UTC function is nice...but the Argon gas thing a bit complicated...if buy online, when got problem, gotta send back....i heard from some forummers few months also not repaired...

i hope they dont release a U1 with 2nd time zone next year!!!

This post has been edited by nando: Jul 27 2010, 10:16 AM

Seems like no VAT discount
I also prefer U2 due to 2 timezone. But heck, I got other priority now

ya lor...no discount...

best deal is to ask someone stopping in Frankfurt to go to the store and buy..the VAT discount worth it..also get to collect free catalogues..hehehehe

only problem is walk in may have no stock....so you should give your friend a few models to choose....



anyway, what you're aiming la? heheheeheh..

congrats. 6k last year??? i remember the U1 was less than RM4k when it was first launched (after discount). wtf.
