QUOTE(fluffy6640 @ Nov 29 2011, 12:51 PM) congrats! welcome to the monster family! Monster is automatic watch? So it doesn't requires battery? for the monster, normally its rated at about 40+ hours. if im not mistaken. typically mine would last 1day and a half like that after a whole day of wearing in the office.  |

QUOTE(fluffy6640 @ Nov 30 2011, 05:07 PM) yup, the monster is automatic This watch seems nice with black background. What's the price range? ps: everyone EVENTUALLY will love the monster but what type of watch are u looking for? chrono? non chrono? diver? military? hehe. i'd say we are all seiko diver fans here? something for daily use, and looks nice would be the skx007. (this pic is with the oyster bracelet) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Erm, i'd no specific that what kind i'm looking for actually, as long as it's nice, and under my budget. For everyday yumcha use, coz former dinner / outing i've the other watch with me already. What's the size for a monster and the skx007? I've a small wrist..

QUOTE(fluffy6640 @ Dec 1 2011, 11:57 AM) @Jing-leBelle Wow..SNZF17 seems nice..Hehe..Alright, i will have a look on it. something casual? the skx007 should suit you nicely  its 42mm not that big, but if you want something smaller, maybe the SNZF17? its a little smaller than the skx007. and the monster is about 44mm.price range? should be around the monster's price also..700-800.  But difference between SNZF17 and skx007 is only size matteR?Waiting for my bonus and get my first Seiko =D This post has been edited by Jing-leBelle: Dec 1 2011, 12:30 PM |

Hello all, finally got my new watch for casual wear, in the end i chose SNZF21K1 instead of SNZF17K1 coz of the black metal, since i've another silver metal watch.
I think both watches are the same right? Only colour difference? Got it for RM600 from Springwell, Mahkota Parade Melaka. Thanks @Fluffy6640 for the recomendation!   Seiko Automatic Watch SNZF21K1 by Jing-leBelle's stOrieS, on Flickr Will take a better pics when i got home tonight after work! |

QUOTE(fluffy6640 @ Dec 13 2011, 09:44 AM) @Jing-leBelle Haha thanks thanks. Love the look of it! congrats on the new watch! wear it in good health and hope to see many more seikos in your collection. hehe.  But i notice the bracelet isn't scratch resistance huh, notice a little bit scratches on the corner at the 'clipper' there just after one day of wearing.. Btw, how long the power can last if not wearing since it's automatic? |

QUOTE(fluffy6640 @ Dec 13 2011, 04:32 PM) @Jing-leBelle Oh, Okay guess i've to reset the time again if i left it over a weekend, since i've the other watch..supposed to have a power reserve of 40+ hours, which i did get on my mini monster 3 days ago, where i left it down after a long day out, it ran for almost 2 days. i'd say on average you'd get 30+ hours normally if you're like me, on the desk all the time But nevertheless, i still love this seiko for the cool look. Thanks for info! |

QUOTE(iamadrianlee @ Dec 14 2011, 04:50 PM) I generally prefer dive watches and Seiko's divers are quite popular than their other models. For chronos and such I prefer the ones from Citizen. just curious, how u maintain all your automatic watches? Don't think the power can last when u changing rights?Automatic winder? |

QUOTE(fluffy6640 @ Dec 15 2011, 09:52 AM) auto winder would be for those manual winding watches. if im not mistaken. so for seiko's autos normally, no wrist time, no winding at all Erm, what i mean is..since @iamadrianlee has so many autos, even if he's switching diff watches everyday those watches would be not moving when reach its turn right? Hehe..So have to reset the time again everytime need to wear? Sorry for my broken english.. |

Before this i only bought watch when the one i using spoilt..lol now buy buy buy only T__T |

QUOTE(fluffy6640 @ Jan 31 2012, 01:02 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 From the picture, i can assume that the photo taken with 2 sec shutter speed to get such a luminant effect.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. |
