Should be RM2299

why not? most likely just RM100-150 max off RRP, from my experience for Note I and Note II pricing.

I would say more than 50% of the time I get my phones before official date available n more than half are AP sets. And about half of them deal through postage
I am very lucky as till today I have yet to get a defective set out from the box.
Even phones I buy from UK n tablet from USA had also being a very good experience.
So I hope my luck still stay this way.
Btw I never have black clipping issues on my Note1 ( AP set) n I think these are limited hardware problems.

uncle different league mah... we are not as geeky. AP sets are not my cup of tea, official local warranty is a must for my daily phone. Have a horrible experience many many years ago sending a Nokia phone to a non-authorised handphone shop for repair.

Alieamin is a highly recommended trusted seller. His prices usually at least rm100 lower than official. His shop (SEP outlet) in Klang but he is willing to meetup buyers in KL/Pj/Subang
I have deal with him once face to face while 2 times through poslaju

The only AP set I will get is Singapore set, others than that, I not interesting except if only the phone is not sell locally.

wonder normal watch shop selling or not
if only can get from SEP then hard to drop price

100% no

AP set from Singapore is like local set for me coz i stay in JB, just a 20mins drive, IF no jam at causeway. I bought some of my computer stuff there, easier to RMA, normally one-to-one exchange on the spot.

A lot of excitement as pre-order already open. i'm gonna wait to test demo set before buying

is that galaxy gear worth that much? RM999.. fuhh..

Rm999 seem overpriced a lot, RM399-Rm599 is reasonable

means no matter how we can only get earliest by 25th Sept?

I bought a Seiko Solar watch for the wife last year, was priced at RM700. Analog.

The Gear has got so much whizbang in it ....... I guess it's fine for such a device. Even a Casio G-Shock with so many buttons and dials is not cheap.

So this is a Samsung you know !!!!

you can't tell me that because i never bought a wrist watch in my life, because i couldn't brain the value. just a ticking machine, but costs so much, no thank you.. (just for a note, a wrist watch is considered as jewelry, thus the price).. as i posted in the smartwatch thread before, if i ever bought and use a wrist watch, it will be a smartwatch. but RM999 for it… hmm.. maybe samsung have to make sure the quality match the "jewelry" standard, or at least, a really durable build device which can lasts years like the normal wrist watch

Yeah! me too! haha! That why others than local set, I will take Singapore set.

20 years warranty with build-in diamonds

What about battery leaks? Non-removable battery wor....

If the Gear build quality is great, then it still price ok for me.

Now still not sure wanna grab that Gear or not as the standby time really bad.

seriously smartwatch is an untapped market. not sure how are they going to play the cards. hope samsung will not flop it though

Selling it at RM999 sounds like fail only. I definitely won't be buying. Since this is just add-on, I'm willing to pay the most RM399 for 1 day battery life watch. You guys can call me cheap. But ... hehe. RM999 watch which will be outdated next year ....
