Agreed, don't go into debt just to buy a watch, especially so when one is just starting their career n even more so in these challenging post pandemic times. Save up the money, dump it in an interest yielding acc. Better to have the cash on hand in case priorities change (Murphy's law says they always do 😅) . Hamilton field is a great piece, and who knows, down the road the Tudor ur interested in would have become readily available in the secondary market for a great discount. Let someone else take the depreciation hit.

I wonder if such a thing even exists anymore with the way things are right now? Maybe vintage pieces and older Cellinis would fit the bill?

Import duty (or whatever they call it) is 5% of goods + shipping + insurance costs.

Yes, 5270P which is only a display unit. RRP is RM830k with some change.

Man, that's some change 😅. I'd settle for something simpler like one of these, if only I can get a good deal for my left nut and kidney. And maybe lung 🤣

Beautiful 15450, congrats :-)

My strap just arrived today, so I had to take the time to swap it out. I think the calf strap wears much more casual than the original gator.

Its a nice combo, but epsom with black stitching still feels formal la somehow, like the textured surface accentuates the hobnailed bezel. Maybe if it were with white stitching instead.

sizing watch bracelet?

Lets talk, how do you like yours sized?
  I always sit in the weird position of either slightly too tight or slightly loose...either that or I'm too used to using leather =/. Wrist size at 16.5cm~

Asides metal bracelets, what are your "one watch collection" strap alternatives? thanks!
*
I hardly wear bracelets anymore. Its either leather, fabric or rubber/silicone. Unless its a nato, all are with quick release spring bars so changing straps is painless and quick. Mainly Hirsch and Nomad watchworks stuff. There's something very liberating about being able to change the looks of the watch instantly on the fly.

Its a good choice. Literally a strap monster, very versatile and can easily be a go anywhere/do anything piece.
