It's Tuesday my dudes... Somehow I like those scars developing I'm the acrylic ...

Erm, haven't really checked. It has been in pools a good few times, but its certainly not my main choice when i need a piece near water.

I certainly don't go diving with it, but I don't really baby it if it happens to be on my wrist near water.

That Thong Sia LE?

When they finally release a spring drive that is thinner, smaller case, not LE, not in freaking platinum or cost the GDP of a small nation, my wallet is ready.

I've been eyeing that for longest time. I have small wrist i feel, so 41mm for a dress watch feels inelegant if you catch my drift. If its like 38mm, would have been mine loong ago.

Poison kuat ni... Haha...

Haha.. unfortunately...

I also have a last pickup for 2020 that shall kill my hunger for awhile. Some work to be done on it though, given its as old as me and my body is breaking down as heck...

I still can't believe how they brand it as the second coming of AP, or how hard Hodinkee tried to push it as something great.

Went up by 3k i think? but they also raised the current speedy so the diff is just 1k or so.

bear in mind this is a new movement.

Less than that these days

Even lesser if you masuk boutique.

Just say it's a gift from another female colleague.

She jeles then will buy you even better one.

I heard Nomos...

That story is unfortunately more common than not. For a lot of the sellers or AD's, they simply don't need your business. Why would they bother to sell to someone they don't know a Sub, when they can find a waterfish that have no issue buying 40-50k of other high margin brands in order to get a Sub?

So unfortunately thats where the situation is. My dealer have shown me China folks that come in and spunk 30k on a Cartier just because there was nothing else he fancies to buy anymore from the place... He's top of the list to get whatever he wants.

I've also seen people spunking 100k on a Hautlence as a favour to the dealer, so guess who gets a Daytona within weeks of request?

Yea.. It's like saying you can easily earn money but whoring out your body. Not really a secret, but why would you need to go down that path for what essentially is a meaningless antique technology.

The way it's going, even the Speedy will soon be a 30-40k piece.

Given the new Zenith EP pushing it at 40k, Omega just need a couple of tweak to play the same game.

Yep, the fact is Omega can do their usual new speedy LE and still sells them out says a lot about the fanbois around.

I asked about the new Snoopy, the boutique told me they don't expect to get any in the near future.

Not a fan of the sapphire nor the caseback. My base workhorse speedy covers most of the aspect I do like about a speedy.

The snoopy, if ever I get a chance, will be something more fun to complement it. Ed white adds nothing to this for me.

Yep, there is an AD in KLCC.

I'm not sure if VC can tumpang them your piece or not.

Invest? None. Most watches don't make their money back, get that clear if you are considering it as one.

Nice wise, I like the JLC Reverso. IWC's meh in my view and Longines only know how to go back to their catalogue and somehow mess it up.

It starts delivery on March, not by March so there might be more waiting still.

That was playing in my mind when I opted out. Those who are buying the first batch of around 300? is looking at October for delivery. So that's a lead time of about 6 months.

Now the open window had about 2000 pieces so I'm wondering can do so it all by March, if the lead time for 300pcs is already 6 mths.

But not bad, 10mins got them 20mil revenue lol.
