I'm inclined to believe that the discontinued V3s are the ones carrying the older movement. There are already V3s sporting the latest F67 calibre movement with hacking and hand-winding, just that they're not in Malaysia yet: Serious Watches & Duty Free Island

Citytime86 in lelong any experience with them?

Whew that's great news, the link shows that it's been around for at least a year. Thx a lot. But this means increase in price over 1st gen. Been eyeing the V3 for some time, but holding back due to budget constraints and worried about the impact of smartwatches.

What impact of smartwatches? Care to elaborate?

Now no impact but what if 1 day smartwatches advance into becoming a necessity like smartphone then how?

ooo...haha. Maybe..but I dont think that will happen that soon.

Screen too small to do anything practical and Battery life issue. Most smartwatches need to be charge at the end of one day usage..like our phone.

Unless they significantly improve battery life of smartwatches, I can't see them being essential.

But then again, we might see true wireless charging in 2018..maybe might change the game a bit.

Orient Stingray user here! Its my first Mechanical Watch, quite affordable and I would say its equivalent to the entry level of Seiko 5.

how much is the stingray?

My model has discontinued but I saw a similar one selling at RM300 in lelong. Just type Orient Stingray.

Great choice and very attractive price!

Possibly it's because it was released in 2012 and now it's a stock clearance. Nonetheless, a nice watch won't go obsolete even though it's a few years old. Interesting to know that CityTime has many models to offer on Lelong.

Hi Bro, how much you bought for this 1?

Got further discount after less tax

my bambino ver II

Lovely

Is this the 2nd gen with hacking and hand-winding movement? How much and where did you buy it?

yup, it's 2nd gen, but w/o hacking & hand-winding, need goyang-goyang to wind up

i bought at my friend's shop

Hi ,looking for NATO straps to buy,is there any online sellers I can deal within Malaysia? Thanks

Found this in my cupboard while spring cleaning, couldn't remember when I actually bought this.

I rmb it was RM280 at citytime a couple of yrs back. Price didn't shoot up as much as the Seiko 5's.

That should be version 2, 1st gen.
