QUOTE(crazyjj @ Sep 18 2015, 02:38 PM) I have checked in the weekend, to have cosc cert, dual time zone gmt, extra bezel for second time zone, anti magnatic and 300m water resistance, only Brietling. Price after discount 10k+ anyway no H3 gas tube. All other brand to have a full spec like aero gmt are over 30k after discount. Other brand with full spec like aero gmt but without gas tube still able to get from 25k after discount. Other brand with certain spec only like without anti magnatic or no cosc certified or no extra bezel for second time zone and definitely without gas tube, can get at 10k - 15k after discount. I guess most Malaysian prefer brand than spec?  i would say majority are into Magazine/Advertisement brand-oriented. Just ask around within your group and ask, would invest in a Grand Seiko watch? those who say YES, he/she got really good taste.

Omega trying to move up some of its affordable watch higher & higher. Sad.

I think I saw that too, master co-axial blue dial, superb beautiful, forgotten the exact price, about 13k+ after discount, they got another one James Bond version for this model right.

QUOTE(crazyjj @ Sep 18 2015, 04:49 PM) Yup, more roadshow, advertisement, marketing & etc. Someone has to pay for it. I got my Magnate GMT for RM6,000 last time which i think is really a good buy. Accuracy is perfect, within COSC parameter.

Yes, Bond is limited edition with fancy blue texture dial. unique design rotor. RM23,000 + being a LE, usually no discount. If you wish to hv Omega, the normal edition will be a good investment. I had my LE moonwatch, so need to think more on next Omega.

QUOTE(JPSB @ Sep 18 2015, 08:58 AM) value for money, right? RM8,000 for a chronometer certified and good quality built. Unique crown lock system. Ya Its value for money, the most fun part is when in ktv room with all light off and after few minutes the only light u can see is the tubes from your ball watch Once your eyes get used to the dark you will see the tubes like really glow in the dark and all my friend will ask "why your watch so bright 1" I will just

Ball have not done aggressive advertisement like Tag / Oris / Omega Etc brands, so when your wear Ball watches some people might not even know what watch you are wearing. Once Ball started with more and more advertisement then the brand will get more expensive due to more people knowing the brand. Its just like Tag Heuer when you tell the name all people know, its all due to advertisement. The best thing i like is the Folding Buckle, its more easy to take off my watch (no fingernail damage here)
