Thanks for the info. No retailers carry this watch? Would like to try on my hand before purchase it.

sorry but no. if they do prices are generally higher and they may have agreement with brand not to ship watches to the country.

nonetheless they have good return policy

Wow thanks again for sharing. Between this and Tissot Visodante, which one will be a better buy?

the chrono uhr vs tissot Visodante.
of course a UHR Chrono!
UHR chrono is on ETA 7750 and Tissot is on ETA 2836

if u don't get in bulk
ETA 2836 movement cost ~US$140, its a family of 2824
ETA 7750 cost ~us$400

Tissot most likely using Elabore grade, 7750 no Standard grade so UHR must be using Elabore grade
chechk the specs

sorry for being a noob in watches. Whats the difference on the movement as compare other than the reserve power? the accuracy of the movement/timing?

7750 is a chrono with day date whereas 2836 is workhorse with day date.
the others are laid down clearly on the table.
the cheapest Tissot equipped with a 7750 would have cost 2X the price of a UHR.

ETA 2836

Thank you Master Pat for the explanation. Didn't know there is so much science behind purchasing a watch.
