17.5k + 1.5k... for a Valjoux 7750 movement?

No wrist shot?

RM 19K for a Val-7750 movement, what a rip off.

Can get a Ball COSC Val-7750 at RM 10K liao.

Even cheaper if it is a Tissot.

PAM = rip-off.

Xuzen

since your father bought it already just enjoy it, btw did you ask for a pam in the first place? or your father decided for you? just curious~!

cuz 17.5k is for a second hand PAM 90 and 19k is for a brand new PAM104. so now i'm wondering which one more worth. lol.

but i read on the other watch forum and it said PAM resale value better than omega that's why i even gave up the omega speedmaster or de ville. n PAM 104 and PAM 90 running the same movement too right except one have the power reserve sign?


i was asking for a tag heuer heritage at first and then omega de ville or speedmaster. but then the dealer said tagheuer resale value is very low. and then suggested my father panerai. but new one is ard 22k. so my father decided to buy the second hand PAM90 for 17.5k. but i realise brand new PAM 104 is just 19k. lol.

Hey all, may I ask what does it means by 26 jewel swiss automatic movement ?

Does increase in number of jewel shows more quality ?

don't buy into that jewel stuff...

they are all synthetic these days anyway...

Here's a simple and concise article on the history and the application of jewel bearings in watches.

guys...

I was trying to adjust the GMT pointer on my new Oris, but I can't get the writing correct.

I referred to the manual...according to the example I can get the reading correct. But once I set back to our local time, I somehow do not get the right timing.

Example that I want to set:
Home - KL (HongKong timezone)
Sec City: Dubai

Pls advice this noob...

Guys, where can i find Laco watches here in Malaysia instead of buying it online? Wanna try it first just in case if it doesnt fit my hand

hey guys, after doing some research, I've almost certainly decided on this watch:

Tissot PRC 200 Quartz Chronograph (T17.1.586.52)
To view the watch: http://www.tissot.ch/?mod_collections65/pr...ts_702/scroll_1

Appreciate if all you experts here can share some feedback on this particular watch Also, in a few watch forums there seem to be a debate on whether this watch can also double as a diver's watch, seems to be a mixed review and is confusing me - any thoughts on this?

I think it boils down to what's your expectations for it and what you're going to wear it for?

My 2 cents:

On the positive side, it certainly looks nice, functional and accurate and fairly affordable.

On the other hand, its pretty expensive considering its a quartz, not really for impressing people (if that's your thing) and not something you'll pass down to the next generation

what do you guys think of this ?
http://www.steinhartwatches.de/en/MARINE-38,583.html
looking for a clear classic looking watch these days and found the new 38 to be quite astounding
and the number 38 suits me well, matches my bday

Not a good sign if its for daily wear.

i have an ocean 2 for daily wear
just looking for a more subtle looking watch now

The Steinhart marine is pretty good looking as a dress watch. First time I've seen a blue rotor being used, perhaps to match the blued hands?

Hi all, my fren is in Rome now and will travel to London and Paris later this week, she is asking where is the better place to get a Rolex, France, Italy or uk?
