QUOTE(bosco1314 @ Oct 27 2012, 10:03 PM) i brought one cheap watch to him just to test.in front of my eyes, he scratched the caseback when trying to open it up and never said anything. then he somehow managed to get dust under the crystal...i asked him to clean it and he reluctantly did it...but still got dust under it... plus i think hes abit senile or his mind is still in the 80s as he thinks all seikos are still made in japan... |

RM2000 is your budget, doesn't tell any signs of what watch you should get. You want automatic/mechanical/quartz? only swiss made watches? etc etc.. |
