Rumuors saying it will be dicont. Hard to get new one, price just increased from Sept 2010.
No, no more 14060 non COSC in the market.

I hear about it also it may discont but can't get any official news...
That means no more no date sub in the market ?
Wah increase lagi... so far my appeal sets for 116610 .. if no budget 16610 also can lah.. icon_rolleyes.gif

Do try your luck on ADs, they might still have stock. Some member from other forum got it last month for 15.5k (I think is THG Lot 10)
You can PM beau too, he came across a NOS 14060 non cosc in an AD here.
Else, pre-owned market then.

Bro, what's is NOS & WIS (I came across reading but don't understand)
At first it was 14060M COSC, then now if got it's no COSC model rite?
Thx for the lead, I try my luck... smile.gif

for rm500 it's casio MDV102. after reading the review, i bought 3units, the kids & myself.
it's quartz, well build, value for money (for me lah)

http://www.amazon.com/Casio-MDV102-1AV-Ana...h/dp/B00134JNM8

it's not a matter what you wear, what you have is more important. my 2 cents. icon_rolleyes.gif

If you can lay your hands on the Zenith movement Daytona, yes.

It's one of the great sports watches & very collectable, especially the black face SS version

I am afraid the zenith daytona movement are more expensive to service/maintain/rapair, problem might occour in future parts needs special order & ppl RSC can't repair. Kindly correct me, if im wrong..
no intention to hurt zenith daytona collectors.. icon_rolleyes.gif

patryn33 ... im quite a basher. i think zenith daytona hard to get furthermore a pre-owned model takut previous owner never service/basher etc. i prefer the white dial, coz the black rings nice.
i saw once in mudah, ss white zenith going for abt 22k .. miss that boat. shocking.gif


beau ... 50% that's damm alot. Ok I put in a note to my friend if going there for year end crazy street party.
any other country getting a rolex cheap ?
(wanted to ask him get some pre-love sports, sell here & earn abit cukup) He usually go ID, CN, TW, EU icon_rolleyes.gif

Is a classic sport watch, alongside Submariner in Rolex line up, and most important, demand > supply.
I like the white dial though.

Not and expert but 6.5k for a quartz? No for me.
Regarding maintanance/service cost, you can check with RSC.

wow... i just realize... highwind85, from what i know is people buy more than one watches to keep for value, eg Rolex. but 2 Seiko, one G-shock, one Orient? May i ask how u use these watches? wear according to mood? or use different watch during different location? no offence ya... =)

i would wear rolex for weddings, reunions, business meetings, business talk, casual outing, watch shopping etc..
will wear it more often when i turn older.

casio/seiko/omega during work (im not boss, so its ok)

opps its highwind85 line, sorry... shocking.gif
