IMHO, the 'true' moonwatch is with caliber 1861 with close case back, ref 3570

Can't imagine wearing a watch with leather strap in Malaysia, the sweat will probably kill the strap in less than a year.

Probably nothing much you can do to salvage it, just get a new one. Many reputable brands now offer sweat and water resistant leather straps e.g. Hirsch, Di Modell, Hadley Roma etc.

You may also consider replacing it with a rubber strap, way more suitable for active wear.

whats your thoughts on this watch??
i like the position and the design of the pusher and seldom can see such arrangement of sub-dial

I got a question here, I own a panerai radomir . Its using winding power to power the watch. The problem is. this watch is not my daily watch. it gets very little wrist time on me. Maybe about 2-3 month , i take it out to use for a day.

what concerns me is that, do i have to wind the watch to keep it moving every day or can i leave it as it is, not moving for about 2-3 month?

any good rolex ad in kl to recommend? would like to get a nice submariner with date.

i know there's one in gardens and pavillion, however very segan to go inside lah :-)

What is the discount like if you had asked for a receipt?

Um... so more discount with no receipt. Will the lack of receipt affect the warranty issue?

You are referring to this?

Love IWC watch but i can only take <40mm watches as I have small wrist.

impressed by all the top of the line watches u guys owned here

sadly im not there yet to acquired any of those, hope one day i would be able to own an IWC thou

ok im considering a watch that is less than RM2k now, be it fashion watch, or watch specific brands.. what would u all recommend?

also, are those fashion watch ie CK, Emporio Armani, Armani Exchange, Fossil type of fashion watches actually reliable? i actually fancy Burberry watches a lot    say to have it running for 3 years without fail mechanically?

or for RM2k, is it better to go for Tissot, Seiko and so on which mainly produces watches only?

what would be ur best buy if u have RM2k on hand to get a watch now?

pls suggest and hopefully some pictures to make it more interesting

im looking at this actually:



what do u all think? this will cost roughly US$300++.. or are there any better range of watches?

pls guide me as im just into watches

Quick question. If you guys were to choose any watch under Rm25k as a daily watch, etc, a watch suitable for  shopping, going out, lunch, dinner, work, uni, dates, formal events, parties, vacations, which watch will you all choose? Oh, and it has to look good on a leather strap. 

young ppl today like 40mm or 44mm watches, nothing wrong with 39mm, 39mm and 40mm is not too far off.
it really depends on how the watch is design, some watches have smaller dial but they wear big.

lol, if the 14060 around 6-7 i also buy

Hi,

Just curious...what a watch hobby kaki will react if saw 2 person (your friend) wear a Tag Heuer Monaco Calibre 11 & another friend wearing Omega 300M Chorometer James Bond limited edition.

So the question is :Which 1 you will drool over and ask them take it off and let you c first?

did u know the wave dial only appeared on the 3rd gen smp?

ignoring the bond LE, and comparing the new smpc with plain dial with bond smp, both are different watches anyway.
the newer with more sporty bezel is nice in its own way, and doesnt look too old uncle-ish.
its kind like a PO liquid metal in a smp guise.

Audemars, A Sange Lohne, Richard Mille for 40s... for the appreciation of finer things in life...

is this a limited edition or normal one? wat is the RRP for this?

think 25K is a little bit overprice if it is a normal model...

My colleague jus got the blue one from Bangkok last month, 20% + VAT refund, the final price is roughly abt 20K...

Guys any idea when the Rolex Sub 114060 ketibaan & price ?
Is the 14060M already dicontinued ? last month AD got 1pc price at rm20,300 no discount .. 
I got this in 2008

Chinoz & r3kahsttub Thank you for the reply... 

Should I service the watch, normal wear no diving, time keeping excellent (to me lah)
Any idea how much estimate $ for service & turn around time ?
Do rolex centre replace the dial, hands, bezel without my notice ?
Can I put in a note for them no to do so & maintain original...
