If buy a pre own watch, like OMEGA or Rolex
where can we bring back to check for authentication?

Normally take how long? is it expansive?
*
Sure, last time around 150 only takes 1hr.
With Rolex even it's real and u have 3rd party bezel I heard they can confiscate it and make u pay for a OEM one

Our Tissot Musical Seasons just arrived! Just wanted to share some pictures with you guys. These are stunning. Pictures don't do it justice at all. Comes in four different seasons and they are musical boxes as well. thumbup.gif
When u said they are musical box too, so it work independently from the watch?

hi guys.. planning on buying a good watch for my own wedding hantaran..
with budget 500, initially i plan to get casio edifice.

but then, i stumbled upon this thread.. been reading few pages..
is there any other options apart from casio i can get with max 500?
i know the budget is really small, compared to the watches u guys been discussing here..
but yeah, thats all i can afford.. heheh

another thing, i'd like to try a leather strap.. coz been using steel for too long..
*
Hmmm... Casio is a good buy, unless u willing to give Timex TX a try.
If u looking for mechanical, look at orient watch of course they have quartz if u are looking at chrono
Ie

Another alternative try citizen, are u only looking at black/gold chrono?

Any comments on this watch? Not much Maurice Lacroix watch that i can find here.

Maurice Lacroix PT6158-SS001-19E
I didn't like their pontos series, their masterpiece collection is far better.
For 6k+, I will get a fc manufacture

Maybe something from Louis erard 1931 collection
http://www.timepiecestore.com/catalog/louis-erard_1931.html

Don't mind pre own ML here is a masterpiece under your budget

Limes uses top grade and its a lot cheaper, my feeling pontos uses elabore as base

If its my money, I really want this. Too bad it's not.... Sign...

That time my colleague was together with me, he said 7k consider good price.. tell me can buy. He was wearing IWC that time..

Too good to be true, most likely fake. 7k is like 80-90% discount.
Ppl wearing IWC don't mean much, did u ask yourself why he didn't buy...

Why the Speedmater is manual-winding instead of auto?
i thought auto is better why they still using hand winding?
hand winding also can be damage if not using it carefully, so its like less durable?

U got to read more about manual winding.
Have u handle one b4, from your post most likely not.
There are lots of ways to damage a mechanical watch.
