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.

Speaking of vintage watches, has anyone dealt with WatchLIM before? Is it legit?

These vintage Omegas are quite attractive...

seiko premier not bad.
around that range can look at orient star also.
then plenty of swiss ones using eta2824...from epos / tissot / glycine / dunno what else.

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 drool.gif

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.

Mine was originally in steel bracelet.
Yours shud be ard 1.7k retail price right? Bracelet was 100 extra.

JDM the back rotor - orient star word is black
Intl - the word in gold. Different style as well.

Mind telling me what the 2 digit on the case back. The one beside the WR.
Trying to know more on the codes meaning. Haha
*
Yeap, the list price is 1.7k.

The word is in black with "Made in Japan" engraved at the case back, I guess it's JDM?

Beside WR, the code is M9 smile.gif

Is that worth to own a LV brand watch that cost for around RM100k?
I mean if you got 100k budget for watch, will you choose LV or you DEFINITELY wont?

A big NO. There are a lot of other better choices with 100k.
