or go for the slightly cheaper Stowa lor?

Which watch is that? I googled "Stowa" and the only design I find that's close to the Nomos is the Stowa Antea which cost like USD1k lol. Correct me if I'm wrong

yup, that's the one

Better off with this.

Or the stowa

It's nice but it's USD1k not USD100

Tarak duit now, belum kerja lagi

Thanks for the recommendation but the design is no where similar to the Nomos/Stowa I'm afraid

But it's also bauhaus design. Or am I getting this wrong? Hmm..

cheap bauhaus design? DW

unexpected reply from you

ppl want cheap...never said anything about good

another cheap one with bauhaus design is skagen...at least owned by fossil now so abit better than DW.
and speaking of fossil...i still want a zodiac seawolf...

Is that the price the sales assistant told you? If you buy from malaysia shop directly, you get 20% discount. At singapore I forgot it was 10% or 15% discount.

Zeppelin is sister brand with Junkers. I bought one for my ex last year for MYR 800. Zeppelin flat line lady. Just a quartz though.

Then last month I bought myself the sister brand Junkers. Junkers Tante Ju 52 automatic.

Got it for rm1.7k after conversion. Now available at malaysia for rm1.6k. Quite happy with it, I guess. Wanted to get steinhart but the size of steinhart is too big and stowa is too expensive.

I dont know the movement is better than avg. like Tissot ETA 2824 or Seiko 4L or 6R or 8L?
I own a 9015 and its +5sec, wobbly rotor like ETA 7750 and kinda loud.
movement release in 2010 or 2011 so far good reviews.

size wise its design to be a replacement for ETA 2892, it is better than 2824 I don't know.
I personally wouldn't pay more than us$400 for a Miyota 9XXX watch.

I didnt ask the sales assistant but i just checked from the website about 2.4k++. It didnt state any discount on the website.

Junkers looks nice too and quite similiar to Zep. But I still prefer the design on the dials from Zep. Your Junkers for RM1.7k. Is it an automatic movement? Looks awesome. This is the first time I am considering brands that are not mainstream? Watches from Red Army Watches are not so popular in Msia?

At the moment, I have a Seiko 5, 2 Fossil watches, a DW, a G Shock and other fashion watches. Each of those watches dont cost me more than RM600.

So you are saying that Miyota 9XXX watch movement aint worth more than USD400? Hmm, should I consider their quartz movement then? I like their design on the dials actually. I am not knowledgable on watch movements. LOL

Try check with the sales assistant first? At least you will have a clearer idea of the actual money that you might be paying. Red army watches malaysia offers 20% discount on all watches in their store. Not sure if that includes straps or accessories though.

Junkers and zeppelin got their distinctive style. For some designs, I prefer the zeppelin while for some others I prefer the junkers. Ultimately I chose the junkers for my second watch because I prefer that type of font. It's a japanese movement miyota 9015. Lower than the one on your zeppelin, if I am not mistaken.

About their popularity, I'm not too sure as I'm not that familiar with watches in general but I kinda like that type of watch design. I stumbled upon them as I was window shopping in 1utama.

This my second watch. My first one is a citizen eco drive that have been following me for around 8 years although the age is probably around 15 years as it was sitting on someone's desk for ages before my aunt couldn't stand watching it collect dust and gave it to me. It's pretty worn down because I don't know much about watch initially and didn't know how to care for it. It's now in the watch shop pending glass replacement and maintenance service.

The junkers is considered as the first watch that I bought for myself. For that price, I could spend on a watch with eta movement but I didn't cause I couldn't find another with a design that I like and could fit on my small wrist. Maybe in future I'll manage to find one that I like and have an eta movement. The stowa flieger will be the next target.

Itch... For... B&R... Arghhhhh

Will go to the physical store to check. Zeppelin has a very vintage classic feel to their pieces. Maybe I shouldn't pay too much attention to the movement but focus on the design itself.

I have a Seiko 5 which is an automatic steel strap watch. I own it for about 7 to 8 years as well. How to know whether it needs to be sent for maintenance or what not?

How often should an automatic piece be sent for maintenance? How much it usually cost? Should I just go to any watch store?

Recently I have been exposed to higher end watches....well at least it seems so to me.

Ingersoll & theorama skeleton watches are on my list but no $$$ hahaha

N & O

which one?

Is amazon a good place to buy watches? Sometimes after converting to MYR. Amazon seems cheapper than those retailers in msia.

Are the pieces legit which is my concern. LOL

That was the reason that attracted the zeppelin watch to me too. Vintage classy feel.

I lost my citizen watch steel link pin and there are many scratches on the glass. So I sent in to fix those. Might as well do the servicing.

How often do you need to send in? That one need ask sifu here lo. It's my first time bringing the watch to a shop haha
