I'm thinking of getting the blue Bambino v3 for my gf. After discount it was RM 600 in the Orient store at Pavilion, but it is possible I could get him to go down to RM 550.

A quick online search gave me a few sites around RM 500, but it looked like that was the price before GST and shipping. Is RM 550 in the store a good deal?

From where did you buy yours?

I was looking for the Bambino v3 at Prertama Complex. This shop called Goldblitz was willing to go to RM 500. Lowest I could get him to consider... But I would be getting the display model only.

Does anyone know if there's a cheaper source?

Well in the end I bought the Bambino v3 blue dial at the Orient store in Pavilion for RM 520. Couldn't get him to go any lower, and lazy to look elsewhere. He even forked out RM 5 in cash because he said the lowest he could go on the the receipt was RM 525. Lol. Kinda felt bad.

Goldblitz at Prertama Complex was selling for RM 500 (after negotiating). But I'd rather get it from a nice and proper Orient shop.

No pics cos it isn't for me. Its for my gf. She likes the radiant blue dial. Haha.

Yup that's the one. The blue dial really shimmers. Tbh I'm not 100% keen on it, I think I prefer the v1 silver Bambino in white dial. But this one isn't a bad looker at all. My girl likes it so what the hell. But I know she's gonna scratch that domed crystal...

BTW I was wearing my Seiko SARB065 Cocktail Time when buying it and the guy at Orient thought it was a Grand Seiko.
