QUOTE(Jing-leBelle @ Mar 18 2013, 12:04 PM) U mean me or everyone? Went to a wedding 2 weeks ago and there were at least 6 wearing Rado Diastars. Wouldn't mind getting one to join the crowd. I'm still avoiding to have a look on the Seiko Orange Monster lately to resist from buying it.. I went to the nearest dealer a week later but they have a limited selection of Rados with only one New Original displayed. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « The asking price after discount was higher than what xaxier83 bought and the faceted crystal does not appeal to me. I'll continue searching for the divers' model hopefully with a good price... QUOTE(iVW @ Mar 18 2013, 07:03 PM) Just post away... I think others will follow suit. |

QUOTE(Jing-leBelle @ Mar 19 2013, 08:55 AM) Don't know why but the Rado Diastars design is not my cup of tea.. Maybe my mind is not up to the date.. haha.. Rado Diastar is a classic design from 1962. The people wearing them are way older than you are.... The shiny golden bezel will get anyone's attention even from a distance. I'm interested in the new original.BTW, no James Bond wannabes spotted at the wedding. Although not using an inhouse movement, I appreciate the qualities of hardmetal. |

QUOTE(Iqbal_kakashi @ Mar 22 2013, 09:27 AM) Hi guys, any idea on how much and where I can get the Orient Defender, this model, http://orientwatchusa.com/et0n002k ? Been searching around, didn't find any shop that carry Orient watches. Thinking of getting it as self birthday present. Where exactly have you been searching around? Pasar malam? Of course cannot find la.... Thanks in advance. SOGO have 2 shops. Sg. Wang have 3 outlets. Sunway Pyramid have 1 iirc. I recommend Sg. Wang because it is owned by the distributor Primal Time Sdn Bhd and if the big boss likes you he'll likely give you a super special price. How special? That's up to you to nego. |

QUOTE(redhatz @ Mar 24 2013, 11:18 AM) I am thinking of getting a dress watch and found the Mido Baroncelli II very attractive. However, I am not able to find a store that actually sells them? Plenty of online stores sell them but I was thinking of actually seeing the watch in person before making a purchase. Any of you know of a store that sells Mido watches? There are several that I've visited but I'm not sure if they have the model that you are looking for because I don't even bother to look at the Mido collection on display. I suggest going here -> http://www.mido.my/en/retailer/POS Call the stores, inquire if they have in stock the particular model that you are interested in and make arrangement for viewing. |

QUOTE(nles @ Mar 25 2013, 11:09 PM) Some question, so my new tag does hack. How did you adjust the minute hand? It should always be moved (adjusted) clockwise else there will be some slippage of the gearwheel that will take time to recover. It's normal for an ETA 2894-2 aka Calibre 17 movement.When I want to adjust the time, the second hand stops. How do I adjust so that when the second hand at 60, the minute hand stays right on the minute marker. Because right now it isn't, I tried pulled out the crown when the second reach 60, set the minute right on the marker. The minute marker only starts moving after the second hand did a full turn. If I pulled out my second hand at 60, push back the crown with my minute hand at 10minute, the minute hand only start moving after the second did a one full round. It takes 2 minute to move to "11minute" |

QUOTE(auhckw @ Mar 25 2013, 10:05 PM) I'm a noob in watch. I don't own any watch for work/casual. Plan to get 1 with the budget under RM2.5k (or max RM3k) non leather type. I prefer to get 1 that can last cause I doubt I will buy more than 1 watch in the near future. Watch is primary for my work (formal attire) and secondary casual attire. QUOTE(auhckw @ Mar 28 2013, 01:02 AM) Mechanical sounds interesting, what is a good entry model that is good? Mind to point me to some directions... Unless you regularly wear a watch, you might find that you tend to knock and bang the watch often.Get an affordable one first to get used to wearing one before moving towards more expensive watches. If you want to jump straight ahead, how about a Rado Original? The tungsten carbide bezel and sapphire glass should be tough enough for your first Swiss watch. I hope. |

QUOTE(tanjinjack @ Apr 5 2013, 12:02 AM) I really want to handle #2 first before making a decision, but with it being a discontinued model, I am afraid I'll have a hard time finding one. Anyone knows where do they have the most Certina in Malaysia? Just FYI, I have been to Sunway Pyramid, MidValley and Paradigm Mall. Go here. Find out the retailers nearest to you and start calling if they have it in stock.Any suggestion? You have model no. for both watches. Both the watches looks identical apart from the bezel. Contact or visit the distributor / service centre and inquire regarding purchasing the "Rolex Yachtmaster" look alike bezel, compatibility and installation on the watch in mywatchgallery.com THE SWATCH GROUP MALAYSIA Level 22 Wisma Goldhill 67 Jalan Raja Chulan 50200 Kuala Lumpur Phone: 603 - 20508888 |
