I think Ming has made it clear, as with many of the smaller brands, is that they are not looking at limited edition for the sake of it, rather they can't scale as one might think they will.

People wants that artisan experience and is surprised when it comes with the fact that they can only do so much.

It's like wanting Van Gogh to draw them a Starry Night then gets mad when he can't produce 100 of them a day.

Or like hurling abuse at FP Journe because he can't do more than a handful a year.

I can guarantee you come March, there will be plenty of angry emails demanding their watches.

Its just too big for my puny wrist. Else I'd be all over it.

Btw, I remember you were talking about it, but VC is going to open or has opened a boutique in Pavillion KL.

Looks decent sizing though.

Ming

Meh, give 10 year also I won't buy that shit.

My go-to is TSC in USJ. They were one of the more reputable ones in Amcorp before they shift to USJ.

They are largely inane items as well, so there's no need to own them to be a fan of them.

How many people can or want to own a lambo or ferarri for everyday use? But that doesn't mean one cannot be a fan of cars or supercars in general and talk about it.

I'm pretty sure we all own sub RM500 watches, in fact one of mine collection is a RM30 that shits proudly beside a figure figure piece. So price is really the last measure an enthusiast use as a benchmark for quality.

My advice is to actually go and try on the watches you think you like, regardless of the price point. You will find there are pieces that is "worth" the big ticket money, there are pieces that is absolutely garbage in your eyes. And just buy what you enjoy.

They did for the 17.09. The difference is Ming is using a Schwarz-Etienne 330.M1 while Kurono usings the stock standard 90S5 Miyota movement in the Toki.

So movement, parts and customisation is a challenge to Ming while Kurono can focus on the less taxing part of the watch.

Those that opt for the 17.09 open window is only expecting the watch after like 1+ years, which requires a huge faith in Ming and the ability to wait that period out.

Don't come back bro. Haha.

Were the 6694's at like 6k not too long ago?

Also the price

Was outside when I got a call that I had a package.

Came home to a huge surprise, and a huge box, from Omega. Can't imagine this level of customer care with many brands these days.

NWA. Straight out of lembah klang...

Hows the visibility on this?

I tried it on one of the colourways, holy cow I can barely see much.

Finally taking this for a ride.

where is wrist shot tax? where!?

I wanted a reverso for the wifey, but macheim too big for her so the excuse is gone

Got, but still pretty thiccboi because of the nature so tak suka.

It's a g-shock. He stopped wearing his expensive pieces the moment he became a minister as he knows the perception is bad.

Later get robbed also not so pain.

Good thing my pieces doesn't stand out so no one notice. Closest is someone asking me if the BB58 is the seiko 007...
