QUOTE(mradult @ Dec 25 2012, 10:58 PM) With that 2k budget, in terms of movement, which 1 is better? OrientStar or the Swiss ETA2824? I'm eyeing on the OrientStar classic wz0251el both also reliable?   accuracy wise, the orient star should be more accurate unless its a 2824 COSC...then it wouldnt be 2k already. anyway, this is my WZ0031DV.  |

Any comment on Zeppelin Flatline 7336-5? I know it's quartz but for the price of RM800 (order online) is it a good buy?

^What's wrong with China made winders? Care to share what you mean by 'quality type'?
Not everyone can afford Scatola del Tempo and Wolf Designs winders, especially for the average guy with a couple of Seiko's in their collection. |
