QUOTE(pspfan @ Jan 20 2012, 10:30 AM) anyone knows whats the going price for a pam005 now? getting one for my wife ~15k-16k QUOTE(Jason @ Jan 20 2012, 11:36 AM) thanks for the heads up patryn33 looking at Nomos price, not cheap, but definitely more affordable than its peers. if u don't think its cheap, what do u think of Muhle Glashutte or Union Glashütte? Bruno Soehnle is interesting display back for quartz http://www.watchsea24.com/en/544989/wristw...-Soehnle/Pesaro This post has been edited by patryn33: Jan 20 2012, 01:00 PM

Not willing to spend too higher price for watch yet unless I m really rich LOL! buy in store or online? in store your choice is tissot and Hamilton. online, tons of choices check out page 1 post 1 alot of brands listed there is within your budget (unless stated they are all running on swiss movement) This post has been edited by patryn33: Jan 29 2012, 08:02 AM

QUOTE(avengers88 @ Jan 29 2012, 08:48 AM) both also can .. however, is cheap mechanical watch recommended ? Wow, ingersoll mechanical is even cheaper than some seiko quartz. they are using china (usually Hangzhou) movement. seiko quartz are Japan made. alpha-watch.com is even cheaper and they are all china made mechanicals some ppl state Swiss made and China made movement is the same. the only difference is QC.
