Seems like the new luxury goods tax has now been pushed back from the planned start date of 1/5 - good news for all members here

im really curious how they define luxury

bacha kopi is luxury to me too

Hello wonderful people!

Wanna check with y'all, if buy watch (around 5k - 10k) from overseas - UK/Japan, how much import duty/tax & brokerage fee I need to pay? Let's say I use DHL or FedEx delivery service.

5% from invoice price + handling fee (by e.g DHL, FedEx around RM50 + SST)

Toilet paper is a luxury if it's not accessible . Like in certain countries.
Starbucks can be luxury and drinking it everyday can be extravagant.

Luxury is subjective.

I would say something that is hard to obtain is luxury. If you earn 1 billion dollars a year . USD 50,000 wont be a luxury to them. Because its easily to obtain for them.

It will be a luxury item if you're only earn USD 5000 a month.. That's just my opinion.

But people love luxury things because they are hard to obtain. It can give that satisfying feeling of achievement to obtain them.

It's basically a few big tickets consumables and goes by price.

These include cars priced at over MYR200,000 (US$42,657); watches over MYR20,000; and jewellery over MYR10,000.

I wonder if anyone have tried the New Tudor from the local AD yet? i think the Coke GMT will have big long list.

Not yet, probably will head in tomorrow to put my name down for the Monochrome

Great choice! i am keen to try on the Coke GMT. i bet it will take 3 months to get the watch. Hopefully not longer than that

Hi,

Need some recommendation for daily usage watch. For few years im using apple watch. Plan to change non smart watch for daily usage.

Maybe budget below 1.5k.

I work at warehouse. Might easy to scratch if knock at racking.

p/s: Gshock not my liking.

thanks

Take a look at Revelot Admiral and Hexmariner series.
If you want bang for the buck, take a look at Pagani Design watches. Build quality for the price is good.
Both use Seiko mechanical movements though some Pagani Design models use different movements.

If you're the outdoor type, Check out Hamilton Khaki Field or Seiko Prospex.

Yay! I got my first PP from PP AD Malaysia!

Model: 5205R-011

This is next level stuff. Congrats 👍

Remember to belanja wrist shot

I enjoy collecting watches, coincidentally Patek AD called me after I bought Rolex. Dilemma though, i afraid if i reject the PP offer I would not get any PP watch in future

close to half a million spend

tabik

btwn the 5205 and skyd, which do you prefer

I tried on my wrist a 5905, dunno is it placebo or what, looks damn nice

I just stick the Legacy protection film.

5205R is a very small watch and not as loud compare to SD.

5205R look more humble to compare to all the watches I have.
