If you read properly, they can't confirm the price for me.

That's why I'm asking all over the place. If it is wrong to do so then I won't bother asking anymore.

Have a nice day.

Saw the price tag on display: RM1950 at a watch shop in Jusco Seremban.

u can easily call up the boutique and ask, they will gladly tell u the retail price and u get the answer in 5mins rather than waiting like 5 days.

Although Citizen makes some automatic movements, their main focus is on quartz Eco-Drive. (80% of their production in 2011)
today the competency is quartz and certainly Eco-Drive that even goes on their campanola line.
they do make alot of miyota movement for the used others, but quartz movement production is always that high even for ETA.
The purchase of Prothor Holding SA may change their direction for their campanola line.

Hi there, I am planning to buy OMEGA Sea Master CO-Axial Automatic Movement by December. Not the ceramic model, however the colour is black face:) Got a good offer from WATA TIME. Any body here wearing one and care to share your review?

Bro,

Are you thinking of the regular Bond SMP or the Planet Ocean? They're both wearing co-axials.
The PO is offered in 2 different co-ax calibres, 2500 and 8500, with the latter being the newer one.
Model numbers or reference pictures will help!

Not the George Clooney model. It's the old Sea Master 300 M GMT model with CO-Axial.


Added on November 5, 2012, 10:08 amAqua Terra is too thick for Asian wrist as our bone structure is more suitable with thinner watches. Unless you're a muscular & vascular body builder.

Old SMP300 with GMT and black face...?

2535.80? But I think that's only available with the blue face.

aqua terra 8500 isnt really thick la, 13mm or so only...while the older aqua terra 2500 is thinner.
thick is for the PO 8500 at 16mm...it is made to be a real dive watch anyway tongue.gif

i think the co-axial SMP GMT is thicker than the aqua terra 8500.

Hi guys,

I am thinking to get this Maurice Lacroix le classiques chronograph. I am still a bit reserved about Maurice Lacroix as it is not as famous as others on the same range like Tag Heuer. But comparably, it's much cheaper than the Tag Heuer Carrera Chrono.

Would appreciate to get some inputs from everyone here.
