icic...btw..how come they write there (Pre-Order Early November)...wat does it means??
And so i just buy frmo the website using credit card and select "Standard US shipping $25" ?

K....i guess i'll have this watch since i think like for RM1400 its kinda cheap d and nice...but got one laz question..

3) Is the name on the card your name?

4) Is the delivery address correct…please re-send this….it looks not complete on the order.

5) Also please confirm if the delivery address is residential and or a business address.

2ndly, the name on the Credit Card is not mine but belongs to my brother, so that's ok rite?
