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.

The only exception for me would be the Monaco chrono.

Why is the Tag not much loved? Over priced?

Hi guys,

Checking in here, for the first time.

Anyone went to BALL's exhibit in Mid Valley? Any good deals?
*
The BALL's exhibit in Mid Valley organized by Watchshoppe, so the deal you can get on the exhibit is the same as the shop. I have been to both the shop and exhibition, and they give the same deal.

Morning guys,

I found this thread a few weeks ago, been reading up of your previous threads. So i know i am in the right place to ask your humble opinion.
I've been looking around for some time, and finally decided on getting this watch. Any opinion on it and the acceptable price?

Any feedback is much appreciated. Thanks icon_question.gif

swiss watches lovers would love these:

http://watch.chinese-luxury.com/watch/20121204/25068.html

too bad it is in Chinese, but you'd recognise the brand and model numbers. The site says these "only cost below 20,000 yuan (rm10,000), good for beginners.... " muahahahaha....... cheap for those nouveau riche of China i supposed?!

This is for some of the slimmest dress watches, of course, they MUST be all Swiss:

Safe to buy from this Chinese website? A lot of fake stuff from China.
