haha! yup, surely get one by one. that's where the fun is but you cant go wrong with either one of those two watches. if you dont have an auto, get one over the kinetic lo.

Added on January 30, 2012, 2:19 pmpersonally, not anywhere near monster's lume. from my experience, the monster would come 1st, then the mini monster, then the 009.

oh, but the pepsi looks more gentleman..
anyways, saw the citizen's version of pepsi, kind of small i would say...

Pepsi lume... nice...



Also a Pepsi Quartz...



Pure Diver's too as I looked at it.

With that picture of the pepsi's lume, I have already almost made up my mind. Thanks!

Btw, what's the sensible price to pay for the seiko Pepsi? Same range as the blue mako?

I do appreciate a great pic like that. But I would not make up my mind based on the lume in that pic. Cos as usual,not closing the shutter will make the lume really handsome.correct me of I'm wrong.im no camera guy;p

Sadly,the lume is adequate on the 009/007. Not madly bright.

And for the pricing,a decent online/eBay/chronograph.com/creation watches/etc would be about 500-600rm. For a retail grey market shop,about 700-800rm. For those normal retail shops,about 900-1k depending on discount.

Compared to the mako? Id still say the Pepsi gets my vote. Simply because of built and looks. Very classic. Very versatile.

what model is that pepsi anyway? the one with the lume pic. not the 009/007 right

the pepsi is SKX009. the normal black one is SKX007. oh ya, the lume is from a kinetic. oops.

From the picture, i can assume that the photo taken with 2 sec shutter speed to get such a luminant effect.

yep, 2 secs from the seconds hand the kinetic was showing. haha

anyways, fluffy.. since u have so many seikos.. where do i get the best deals?

i see 3-4 secs. haha.

For those who interesed in 009, here is the review.

http://www.malaysiawatchforum.com/index.ph...pic,4242.0.html

well, so far i'd say ebay auctions are the best way to grab seikos. that's cos the amount of sellers are a plenty. and shipping costs arent that bad. on average its about 28USD for EMS via fedex. amazon i tak suka. annoyingly hard to know whats the shipping cost, and whether they ship to malaysia. (sorry amazon users).

but for the pepsi, i grabbed it in a shop located in KL. to be honest, knowing i could have gotten Rm100+ less on ebay, was a little disappointing. it comes down to preference. i prefer buying online cos of the awesome prices and its fun just refreshing the tracking page. haha.

fluffy! before u get ur cam! mind telling which shop u went to? cause i been to a few shops.. they dont carry this seiko. seen one with citizen pepsi though...

haha! i went to a shop called Ruby Watch Shop in kota raya, near the Mydin. exact adress i'll post it up. cos my buddy brought me there. its a tiny shop. its right under a stairway to be exact. haha!

and please be warned, this guy carries all types of divers you can imagine. citizen, seiko, casio, orient. if you bring cash, your gonna give him all your money.

i almost got the frankenmonster as well. but my wallet said not yet. dont be greedy. hahahhaa.

Sorry..wrong site

thanks for the headsup! will head over when i have the time

This is mine

Ordered my Seiko 5 watch today from creationwatches, will see how it goes:

i am not sure ur pulsar is with seiko, as far as i know alba is with seiko. If got water in it you better send to shop fast. Send back to where you bought it, if you really sure pulsar is with seiko, you can always sent to seiko authorize dealer. Normal shop can help you with the water resistance also, depends on where the water goes in, normally because of the back rubber is loose. Replacement of rubber will do. However, there might be other places where water will go in as well.

very nice! wear it in good health!
