QUOTE(Jason @ Jan 20 2014, 10:09 AM) I thought Panny bought Rolex movements so they can play lego in Italy, that was, until Rolex stopped selling it to them. Panerai was approached by Italy navy to produce underwater watches. Without the technology know how, Panerai outsourced the task to Rolex. (the crown crown was original designed by Panerai though) Anyway, the vintage Panerai were not using Rolex movement, the movement was Angelus instead. |

QUOTE(muh_is @ Jan 21 2014, 03:10 PM) Errr.. Would it be okay if I ask some recommendations here? ppl are talking about high class watches and all Seiko Criteria series. I'm looking for a lady's watch. a very simple watch, not too-girlish. preferably black leather strap. Abit elegant+casual. most important for a very small arm. maybe around 1.5-2inch and yah, budget is very limited. max around RM600 only maybe something like this? http://www.skagen.com/en_US/shop/womens/wo...agePath=355SMM1 Want more colorful and trendy, check out Ice Watch.

QUOTE(Patek @ Jan 27 2014, 09:42 PM) I got a friend who wants to sell his mark 16 (not the same link uve provided) but is priced at RM13,500 but i will try to nego more (maybe buy the watch only minus the bracelet since the bracelet itself costed rm4k) Mark 15 ?Yeah,so far i can't find a black bay within my budget range. Im looking for a quality watch which can serve me for years. My preference would be something like; Tudor blue heritage, nomos, iwc portofino, maurice lacroix pontos s chrono, longines master collection, fortis flieger daydate b-42, rolex submariner (of course), tag heuer heritage calibre 16. Anything that is with white dial n blue hands. Do you where i can get the cheapest watch just like longines master collection; perpetual triple day date with moonphase? https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=3081935&hl= |

QUOTE(kenji1903 @ Feb 7 2014, 02:34 PM) i do agree with you on this... fakes aside... i think Panerai too has quite a fair bit of homages around USD10k ? I'll go for AP RO 15400  but then, with USD10k... i'll be seriously considering JLC MUTs and of course some PAMs! Arghhhh... i'm still very interested in those newer base models like 510 and 512   |

QUOTE(Jason @ Feb 7 2014, 04:27 PM) Hmm, the El Primero 36000vph 38mm for me. Not the Striking 10th. I doubt anybody would argue against the El Primero movement. QUOTE(ridox_orimabu @ Feb 7 2014, 04:54 PM) The most accurate watches of them all.. I like that model too nut the overlapping subdials are deal breaker for me i read that even the watch snob bow to their magnificent work.  |

QUOTE(Jason @ Feb 8 2014, 05:37 PM) Even the original one in 1969 A386 also had the overlapping sub dials. I guess meat for some, poison for others.  Original A386 on left, no legibility issue as opposed to the modern reissue on the right. |
