like I suggested to alfredfx, try Christopher ward nearly new can get for around rm$600 for a swiss made auto. stocks run out pretty quick, u need to check in freq to get a bargain. unfortunately C3 Malvern Chronograph is a swiss quartz and price is at rm$500. the auto C5 (white dial I think U like white dial) still in stock and is going for 635.
nice thing about it is 60.60 return and warranty policy.

issue with buying from watchstyle.com is they are in Germany and they do make U pay VAT!!!!

Hi guys. I dun really know much about watch but i do love nice watches. Recently I have a very good offer of an old Tissot model which is Tissot PRC200, it's new with 2 years warranty. anyone who owns this watch mind to share their experience with this watch? and how's Tissot watch quality? If have problem how and where do i claim the warranty? I only own a Casio Edifice and Seiko watch. Feel like trying other brand instead of the current 2 brands. Tight budget which below RM1k and i guess not much choices around ya.

Thanks 1st to all sifus reply.

Hmm looking to get one of those Pilot B-uhr inspired watches..

So which brand offers the best value?

Christopher Ward? ..And some of those other German brands like Stowa, MkII, Archimede, Steinhart, etc

Sinn is a bit more premium than these right?

hahaha...i stil prefer german brand than japanese

Seiko may be becoming Lexus..but still too mass market branded

A. Lange may be the Porsche and these little known german brands may be the Opel..but still have a better image 

Anyone of you deal with Steinhart before?

Send an email to them, they only accept paypal and bank transfer. Any idea how to brought from them using credit card? Thanks.

nice Frederique constant. retail price from AD was set at US$1125. their discount is like longines... ~25-30%.
their goal is to make high quality mechanical watches at affordable prices.

automatic jap is te only way.. try Orient watch.
Mako is 41mm and its going ~us$100-150.

this is at 39mm

if it works and the price is a price you're happy to pay, then why not?
they have discount vouchers every now and then...mostly 50% off + perks..

People who post "what watch would you recommend" posts here should really consider buying online. As patryn said, many a good deal can be found on the Bay or forums. But as usual, do your homework before making the purchase to minimize risk (eg product description, seller reputation, shipping options etc).

My last 5 watches were purchased online and all were delivered without issues.

yes you can.
