I dropped by Sincere watch @ KLCC today. PAM000 ~RM15k, PAM111 ~RM19300. Both no stock wait long long. She even said if I see it overseas or anywhere, grab it, cause they also don't know when they will get it.

PAM000 is more scarce than PAM111 according to Yen, the salesperson I spoke to.

Initially I wanted to have a look at the pieces in person. I wanted a base watch but the watch is so simple just didn't jive with me, now its the PAM111 or PAM176..still, want to see em all in person.

Saw the PAM111 at a pre-owned watch website selling at RM14800... think still nego...

So watches won't escape from gst next year? Does that mean higher prices since currently they are not taxed?

Hi Sifu's,
Newbie reporting here. Been into timepiece since 2010. Learn to appreciate it from my friend. The downside is, I can't afford luxury timepiece. So, in my collection are only 1 seiko 5, 1 guess, 1 esprit, 1 invicta and 10 unit of kentang/imitation/orichina watch.

So finally the time has come. I managed to save RM5k and decide to buy my first expensive watch. So, I need your advice what should be my first buy. Since I can't afford to buy frequently, I might stick to this one for a long time.  So my budget will be RM5k + creditcard (depend on the watch value but max is RM3k). With this budget, should I buy;

1. Fortis B-42
2. Pre-owned Tudor Black Bay
3. Pre-owned Maurice Lacroix Pontos
4. IWC Mark 16
5. Pre-owned Omega Speedmaster reduced
6. Longines
7. Pre-owned Monbtblanc

Or you have other in mind? Appreciate your wise advise.

Just wondering does AD allow you to use half credit card and half cash for luxury watch payment??

If you like flieger, you can try out stowa... good quality watch but not in the range of luxury..

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)

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?
