Hi guys,
Does anyone know any particular watch would be of similar design as attached? Budget's around 2k. Been eyeing the Casio Edifice Black Label EQS500C-1A1 as well as the Tissot Gents T-Sport VELOCI-T Black Dial Chronograph Watch T024.417.27.051.00. Looking for a mix between sporty and formal. Any better suggestions? Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(pds_disi @ Mar 13 2011, 01:55 AM) hi guys Oceanus is not officially available locally. You can however easily get it from one of the Japanese sellers on ebay. The OCW-T410TB-1A is selling for about 3K.I am a fan of digital + analog combine watch, current scouting a new watches, found somethig catch my eyes Anybody seen this casio oceanus OCW-T410TB-1A available malaysia ? by looking from online, seems like this model only show on official casio japan, hongkong and taiwan website, non of casio english website listed this. searching for online ship found only amazon.jp and some taiwan website carry this watch. so i am also search is there any english online shop carry this model. But with the current situation in Japan, I would wait a while until things settle down over there. |

Got reply frm Damasko liao... I guess i was using the wrong general e-mail. For orders and enquiries: nadja@damasko.de Got reply within a day... Shipping to Malaysia is.... ready for it.... 120euros!!! I thought after spoonfork's days of ordering direct frm Damasko, maybe the prices got adjusted... He siad that it was 120euros. Should have just taken his words for it... Now I'm still calculating the costs between WWII, Gnomon or Damasko direct. And.... I need Funding!!! lol This post has been edited by hanz079: Mar 15 2011, 04:42 PM |

The exact reply is the shipping to malaysia is euro110 and the packaging costs euro10... hahaha...
They charge for packaging too!!! Man lei sei mei... Added on March 15, 2011, 8:58 pmGnomon Watches. Basic Damasko DA36/37 selling for USD1100 + USD40 for shipping = USD1140 x 3.05 = RM3477.00 Damasko Chrono DC66/67 selling for USD2190 + USD40 for shipping = USD 2230 x 3.05 = RM6801.50 Damasko Direct. Basic Damasko DA37/37 selling for EUR799 - 19% VAT = EUR647.19 + EUR120 for shipping = EUR767.19 x 4.27 = RM3275.90 (rm201.10 difference) Damasko Chrono DC66/67 selling for EUR1699 - 19% VAT = EUR1376.19 + EUR120 for shipping = EUR1496.19 x 4.27 = RM6388.73 (rm412.77 difference) And the only payment option is wire transfer which means extra fees as well. Still waiting on WWII reply e-mail on pricing but by the looks of it, unless you're buying the highest end Damasko watches, better still just go with Gnomon... If WWII pricing is competitive which I feel it will be because Malaysia is duty free for watches... then WWII is the way to go coz you get to molest the watch and try it on before buying... I will update once WWII updates me on the prices... hope the above helps for ppl looking for Damasko watches. This post has been edited by hanz079: Mar 15 2011, 10:18 PM |
