Nice pickup!
Close up pleaaase!

Oooh.... how much was it again? I call dibs first, okay!

order from dabrands ebay.
basically rm600, sent by fedex in 2 days, escaped GST.

u could also go thru his bidding war, which usually ends up u only saving about usd20 or sometimes less...provided u win.
so lazy wait 1 week with no assurance of win unless do a stupidly high bid, so better just buy-it-now and reach 2 days.

Just received the replacement Cocktail Time yesterday. No scratch on the dial. But with very close scrutiny there is actually a blue dot beneath the 'i' in the 'SEIKO' word. I just don't have luck. But its a really really minor dot, barely noticeable under a magnifying glass so I'm content

What I'm a little frustrated with is that the replacement seems to have worse accuracy. The previous one was losing 2-3 seconds a day, this one has gained 10 seconds in a day. Hopefully it calms down. Do watches calm down after some time? Or does it just stay that way right out of the box.

Oh I got Seiya to throw in a free spring bar fool. It costs USD12 on his site. No idea why such a simple tool costs that much.

Accuracy depends on a few factors, e.g. position, power reserve etc. +10 doesn't seem too bad, give it a few days and time it again over a longer period.

I bought the Burgeon spring bar tool, which does the job no better than the ones I got for free when buying straps.

if ur a sucker for accuracy, +10 is more desirable than -2/-3.
say after 3 days, u only need to stop second hand for 30secs instead of 51-54secs and then also u have to advance minute hand by 1... where got time
nowadays i dont care already, as long as its not running out of specs.

Let me know when you want to let go lah ok? :-P Then I count my piggybank.

That would be the day he shows off his newly bought omega skywalker.

And still no wrist shot... Apa ni....

can, rm700
its a cool piece la...will be around for awhile...discontinued in 2007...and no one appreciates it cos all blinded by the skx...but it has a cult following.
plus i think its also the last ana-digi seiko made.

1/1000 bragging rights

1/1000 AND world time

H023 too troublesome for OCD ppl.
later analog second hand not in sync with digital

It's adjustable..I just didn't bother

no second hand = no problem
snj023 also has pretty classic dimensions, bezel 40mm wide, clasp tapers down to 21mm.

looks really good on the wrist! certainly looks much classier than the normal casio ana digi ala g shock

2k for the turtle reissue?

zzz, kill me now.
means rm1.4k for bracelet version...and its still stamped clasp instead of milled...screw that.

Why does it cost so much??
