^ Just email to check with them I guess if you're worried.

Spicediablo, mine says "error on page". Seems like some other forumers are facing problems too, saw a few threads about it in the Helpdesk section. hmm.gif

Can anyone recommend me any affordable watches that good and longlasting?

I prefer those simple black strapped ones. Really dont like the metal watches shakehead.gif Heh.

I've seen Quiksilver selling watches but never had the interest to check them out. Anyone know the price range?

what's affordable? what is your budget?
what is good? do you need sapphire crystal? quartz? auto?
how longlasting do you want?

prices of quicksilver watches are here.

That is a very handsome watch, I like the blue dial model.

Out of curiosity, what is the price range for a watch with annual calendar complication?

Wow comparing prices that makes the Zenith very 'affordable' indeed. Plus you get the El Primero movement too. Let's see if this gets on our favourite grey dealers sales list.

That's a Mido All Dial Diver, on sale by grey dealer for the same price.
http://www.bodying.my/mido-watches-m8370-4...1/watches/23046

2.8k is fair I guess. I would try to further nego, cos personally would not pay such an amount for a non-chrono Mido.

Btw 1.6k is a lot of money for an Orient, but as long as you're happy smile.gif
