QUOTE(r3kahsttub @ Sep 19 2016, 03:10 PM) Jason no lah, we are both on a budget. My passport was actually stolen... then returned (minus backup cash in the holder). Anyway, didn't plan for anything; would have bought a BLNR is Heathrow had one for £5,000 - but they have since adjusted their prices to £5,800. Checked out the PAM590 which I'm tempted to swap my zero for, but not keen on topping up too much and I really do like my zero. Asked around for a Reverso, but only keen on the 1931 Tribute. Had a look see at a Smurf, but that's way out of budget so only a fantasy. I'm in HK now, need help with the BLNR or the Smurf? LOL. QUOTE(ck77 @ Sep 20 2016, 09:59 AM) The date ruined it. 30m is ok as it is not a diver. New PAM 1000 and 1005 also 30m only. Lol The "new" PAM is like.. poverty version. For people who really want a PAM but can't afford it.

I personally prefer the sandwich dial over the painted one on the 000 & 005. Gives it more depth.
BUT.. too rich for my blood. I peasant only.

QUOTE(0168257061 @ Sep 20 2016, 09:23 PM) I must admit. I hated panerai so much before (stupidly big). But after tried it on hand, it is pretty nice to look, and goes quite well anywhere. keep digging photos now.  While I feel people who wear Panerai are douchebags, I don't mind wearing one and being a douche myself.

QUOTE(Everdying @ Sep 21 2016, 09:35 AM) but its true. lolex ppl say pam wearers got some kind of attitude. but what they dont realize is... ppl think lolex wearers have that same attitude also. like they say... 'generation gap'  these days, its the hipsters wearing vintage lolex.. and the poor hipsters wear DW. I rotated back to my carrera.. wanna be forever alone & handsome like Brad Pitt. Don't want to be portrayed as hipster.

QUOTE(ck77 @ Sep 22 2016, 03:02 PM) old uncle wearing vintage speedypro  I rather have a speedy pro than a carrera, although carrera still more handsome, because brad pitt. but i'd wear a carrera and not a speedy, because i'm a lazy fat f**k who isn't bothered to wind his watch. QUOTE(kenji1903 @ Sep 22 2016, 03:29 PM) Nice link, now I know Cartier introduced the deployant clasp. QUOTE(Naka7a @ Sep 22 2016, 01:59 PM) not the other way round ka.

Not sure what's the relevance of Brad wearing a Rolex got to do with a Speedy or Tag. But according to the commercial, if you're wearing a carrera, you're made of Brad Pitt. And Brad Pitt is handsome. So if you wear Carrera you're made of handsome. This post has been edited by Jason: Sep 22 2016, 05:19 PM

QUOTE(Naka7a @ Sep 22 2016, 08:40 PM) not sure the relevance in my next post too. but what the hell. this is damn cool. Bike without helmet = stupid. Unless he's chuck Norris, then planet earth would need a helmet when chuck is riding a bike. QUOTE(r3kahsttub @ Sep 22 2016, 09:33 PM) Brad in commercials wearing Tag and Rolex. Where's the one of him in this 5711?
Ah yes.
Tag is the cheapest watch Brad wears? Lol

QUOTE(Everdying @ Oct 4 2016, 11:12 AM) for me its always body language. u can wear nice watch, but if look like a slob also no one gonna entertain u...considering also that this is asia and fakes are everywhere. body language, how you carry yourself, I think that says more about a person than the items on him. I'd give a nod to a person wearing a Casio or pedestrian Seiko.. but DW..lol. Fakes.. ok you're in the bucket of "people I don't want to know". http://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2016-...ars-a-500-watch

I thought this was a watch thread... apasal talk about children. Niamah, don't say children, girlfriend also I don't have. Thought #foreveralone can hide here see watches... and now kena infested by passionate parents raving about their kids.
Woi, take the watches out, get back to point. If I wanted to see parents raving about their kids I'll open Facebook. Yes yes, your baby's first poop without diaper, damn amazing, come I clap for you.

QUOTE(kenji1903 @ Oct 18 2016, 12:05 PM) Very, and I like how its simple. With a smile QUOTE(r3kahsttub @ Oct 18 2016, 12:13 PM) Only the best pictures for you, my friend. Smiley not serious enough? No problem! You might not be able to find one anyway. But wait... knowing you, I reckon you're a 2-liner sort of guy... I like it cause of the smile, but without the smiley, then definitely that 2 liner is more appealing. But then I wouldn't want it then! GMT Master 2 over a sub! But more that I can afford pal.

QUOTE(ncs_soda @ Oct 18 2016, 11:14 PM) For beginner always Seiko or Orient the best....in term of design, quality, or even persistency ...... Maybe tissot for younger look design also..... The two japs, plus Citizen really can't be beat for respectable practicality. Not everybody wants to spend thousands on watches, but we can respect honest simple work horses. That eco drive is really wonderful, as Li Ka Shing puts it. A man who can afford ANY watch on the face of earth.

Went to Tudor at MBS.. Pelagos is clinical. Felt colder than in the pictures. Definitely a serious tool watch, not something I'd want.
Now comes the BB. Ho ho. It was not love at first sight, the charm I felt in pictures didn't carry over.
And on the unexpected front I went into Omega, and the PO, 45.5mm XL joke. Oh yeah, that looks more handsome than in the pictures. I liked it. But it was too thick, kinda floating on my wrist.
Orange is nice but I don't see it lasting the rest of time. Black, thinner case with the 2500. Maybe I should hunt for that.
