Wow! Congrats on your stunning acquisition, hanz! Very nice!!

can PM me the price bro? kena poison liao

so bad mer?

summore it was my first preferences...quality wise?

Plastic watch.

Says right there on the caseback --> PC/Carbon

In simple words its polycarbonate ie plastic added with a percentage with carbon to increase rigidity.

Same stuff used in everyday product like simple notebook or cheap tablets

Cool to use as a weekend fling or something but not if its your main watch imo

There are a few models of seiko 5 army right?

The smaller 37mm ones have model name starting with SNK

SNZG models are 42mm.

which shop u ask?
if u tried solar time and they say cannot, means cannot, cos they're the distros basically.

Guys,

I have a question. I am a watch noob and i have been tasked to get a watch for RM2000. Am wondering what are the brands i can go for? Figured i'd ask here before going to the shops.

Looking for something smart, and manly. If can get decent brand, is ok. But dont want a cheap expensive brand as im paying for the brand and not the specs. A good, manly looking rm2k watch. Any decent brand.

Thanks

It really depends on seller, online thru thewatchery/ashford/watchseller/collectorstime are fine no worries. They do insure shipping out to you. Warranty thru grey is the seller to claim warranty is a hassle, most watch don't have issues within warranty period unless u are darn lucky. Watchseller is a AD and u can get watches fix locally thru the service centre.

What I do is when watch arrive don't go wearing it daily. Wind it up and leave it over next few days to monitor behavior. If strange ask for refund. Use and abuse is not cover by warranty.

Have u check out page 1 post 1?
Are u willing to shop online?
Please define smart and manly with some pics of watch u like.

Decided to use the Sumo 1st, went to the watch shop in Kota Raya, indo lady says will charge me RM8 to adjust the link to fit in m hand, said ok. After all is done, i tried it on, feels fit and nice, as though its wrap onto the hand. Then i ask the indon lady, "Cantik tak?", indon lady replied... "mcm uncle saje, baik you pakai itu Barcelona, lagi nmpk muda". I paid and walked......

SBDC001 aka Seiko Sumo, heavier than i expected


Lume test...

Yes, i have checked the links. Was looking halfway thru it just now before i had to go out. Would prefer to get it from a shop. But i know i can get it cheaper online. But i need it soon

Below are some pics of what i think is to my liking. However, i am sure these most prob costs more than 2k

One of them is roughly 100x over your budget

Jokes aside.. from the looks of it, you're into chronographs. Good news is there's a literally hundreds if not THOUSANDS of models out there but for under 2K, you'll be looking at just quartz chronos.

Anyway, watch preference is a personal thing. Happy shopping
