preferably kinetic over solar.

how about a diver kinetic below Rm1k?

u have this?


another great seiko you can get below 1k is a nice seiko monster

nice...i actually love all the seiko pepsi models. haha.

ah...the limited edition. the night ones are the nicer ones. cos the green/yellow i tak suka. their red ok la. hehe.

here's a link to skywatches in SG. i have been to their shop in people's park. nice ppl.

Added on January 17, 2012, 11:23 amcreationwatches, like the other SG sellers, are ok. easy to deal with and friendly. i never dealt with them before, but i have dealt with watchub, pokemonyu (ebay), watches-bay (ebay/website) and a few more i cant remember. generally they are all ok. look for who offers the best price

heheh. its not really tagged as LE but its still limited in terms of it being sold. rarely found. and there's no real diff, just the color scheme. those actual limited edition ones are worse! easily 800-900USD. insane... for that i'd get a nice mechanical seiko SARB model.

*update on the SKX031*

just got my WJean super oyster 1. looks mega awesome and feels insanely nice. but end links dont fit perfectly. i am searching for original end links right now.

up next, sapphire crystal! and maybe relume..

sorry for the lousy pics.

its a limited edition model. look for the new SRP models.

by the way, has anyone seen this chrono before? SNN195. looks pretty good. might be my first chrono. haha.

you're talking about the new one right? this uses 4R36. it hacks and winds.

love those kinda shops. the prices are fantastic.

Added on January 20, 2012, 9:10 amyup. 1 diff is like you said, the baby is seiko 5, and the monster is a certified diver.
baby mons 100WR rating. the monster 200WR. baby mons no screw down crown, monster has a screw down crown.

size wise, the baby mons is slighly bigger than the monster.

@zajun80

thanks dude! any new pieces for yourself? hehehe.

@radi0head
nope, not the original bracelet. i swapped it the day i bought it. to be honest i really dont like the bracelet that comes with it. this is the Wjean super oyster. very very nice bracelet.

@jeremy_yee
guilty. took the pic with an iphone. haha. by even now looking at it, it is almost black. cos the color is a really dark navy blue..with good lighting it would be obvious its navy blue...

looks like the crown fell out. easily replaceable. head to thong sia in KL central plaza/or any seiko shops capable of repair to get a replacement.

Added on January 30, 2012, 9:46 amfor the mini monsters they retail about 500RM grey, and about 600-700 in shops after discount.

This post has been edited by fluffy6640: Jan 30 2012, 09:46 AM

IMHO, both are a must have. but so narrow down the decision, id say the monster is more of a casual and weekend/fun piece. the pepsi would be a more dressy in terms of its "softer" appearance.

at the end? get both lar. hahahah

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, 2:16 pmi have a feeling you will own another seiko again some time soon hehehe.

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.

This post has been edited by fluffy6640: Jan 30 2012, 02:19 PM

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.

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