Anyone here have experience purchasing from the below sites before?

http://www.shoppinginjapan.net/
CHINO: http://c-watch.co.jp/ww/

If yes, how are their standard EMS shipping like? Reliable and safe?
And how about chances of being taxed by customs?

Thanks in advance

Bought once from Chino before. No issues apart from the tax la.. Confirm customs will withhold your parcel to tax you

ya, ems most likely get gst...if unlucky.
want to play odds, opt for something like fedex.

Ordered from shoppinginjapan once.
They are legit.. A japanese merchant that shipped around the world.

How much tax did you kena?

Ah ok, I'll check out the fedex cost in that case.

Thanks for the info . shoppinginjapan seems pretty good in terms of prices.
Have you experienced any tax/gst?


I plan to get either SARB065 or SSDGM001, both JDM so can't find them locally .

Aside from that, where is the best place to get SKX007? Jammaymay?

just cos its JDM doesn't mean no private sellers bringing in.
search minutez on mudah, he brings in JDM seikos.
his price is about 10% or so higher than bringing in urself, but u do get to try before buying... and at least have peace of mind that the watch is working fine.

Hey thanks for the info!
He does sell the SARB065. I'll try to contact him.

Unfortunately he does not have the Brightz SDGM001, would've love to compare those two

Kena 6% gst if you pick it up at the hub near LCCT yourself.. If my memory serves me right. That's all. Unless u ask poslaju to bring it to your doorstep. That would be an extra rm100(iinm) handling fees.

Guys.. Have a little problem with my sumo, anywhere to repair or checkup in local?

Hi guys, wanna ask recommendation about auto watches. Which brand is reliable and good, others than seiko 5 model ? I got dicount voucher, but unfortunately doesnt include seiko brand. Budget 500-700.

SKX? But I think some retail price is like 800-1000 because they can go and claim they give 20-30% discount so is now cheap.

Do you have maybank? SKX009 for RM863 and after Maybank credit card 12% discount its RM759. Worth it now. I bought my SKX007 with Malaysian Watches before and their quality and service is top notch.

Fishy approves the SKX007

why isnt it in the water?

I don't wanna pollute my fish tank.

I do. Is it through maybank website?
How about lazada? From my glance, seems the price there for seiko 5 quite low than at shop, around 20-30% i think. Is it ok to buy at lazada?

I always buy at lazada.. already 2 seiko automatic and gshock. Even from oversea its still fast and reliable.

http://www.lazada.com.my/seiko-skx009k2-au...tch-761369.html this one from Malaysian Watches. It's fast and good. Use maybank discount with lazada app to get 12%! Web only 10%
