I love these kind of watches, clean look.
Is there any watch that I can get with a similar look for under rm1000?
The Seiko Spring Drive is wayyy over my budget, over USD2500 cry.gif

Many thanks in advance

What is the full name of this brand; CW?
Somebody recommended me that brand in a few weeks back in V2.
I tried googling CW but no results.

Are Timex watches ok?
Saw one in a SG FHM magazine.
It has a see through case. Looks classy.

Thanks CK!
I like CW's but the ones that I like are all jsut above rm1k.
I like clean face with a see through case.
Which brand is similar to CW but cheaper?

Is CW as reliable and historically rich as Seiko's?

How about Stuhrling watches?
Anyone sifu here has them?
They look very expensive but they are not.
I like the "skeleton" watch.
Not the usual type that I like which is a clean look but this is special.
Would you guys be impressed with that watch and say
"whoa" or "cheap cheap looking"?

And how about Kenneth Cole?
Or are they not really a famous watch maker?

all using chinese movement, maybe from hangzhou, liaoning or maybe seagull for those more expensive ones.

I would get a seagull

Thanks for the recommendation.
They are nice.
The only thing that I don't like is that for every watch,
there is a
MADE IN CHINA words in the face and they are not small laugh.gif

Added on April 15, 2011, 11:41 amWhat do you guys think of this watch?
user posted image

It's the last day of sale today. Around RM300.
Is it worth it?
Is silver or a white dial more professional?
If you guys have any other suggestions for around rm300 price but with a more professional look,
please let me know.

I prefer the kinetic user posted image
but it costs rm540. A bit over the budget.
Thanks..

Since its a black leather so a black face would look nicer imo.
