still over the moon on my last purchase. As much as I'd like a GMT BLNR, it's hard to come by. This would do for now.
Some new pics taken last week, was thinking of changing to a brown leather strap.



Love the blue lume

the poison is deep, I'm starting to look for another one barely 2 weeks on

Can't decide if it's going to be Sub NoDate, GMT or BLNR

no surprises here especially after the price hike. A lot of models started to appear on the shop windows. The BLNR is second hand and ADs are still fulfilling back orders, been told it's a one year wait. I think I can wait it out....

Both the GMTII & the Sub is available now. I wasn't expecting it but I saw it at the AD yesterday. Price increase wasn't too much for the sub, kinda tempted. I bet it'll be gone by the time I've decided ha.,

it's £6550. No discounts though. Have enquired with most ADs and they wouldn't budge on any of the sports model. Shame.

I would have snapped up the Daytona!
Did you get any watches?

Decided to get a bunch of accessories from WolfDesign and I'm pleasantly impressed with the overall packaging.



First up was a Windsor 10 piece box.



and a watch roll for my travels. Comes nicely boxed and wrapped in a bag



lastly watchwinders, ironically getting 2 separately is cheaper than a dual winder.
The box was well protected and comes with a dustbag.







I could just stare at it

Thanks. it was bought directly from their website. I wished I got the Blake model instead as it uses real leather but then it's a lot more expensive. I didn't want to spend too much on accessories at this time.

The motor is pretty quiet and when the enclosure is closed, you could barely hear a thing. Overall it's well made and sits beautifully on the bedside. I've heard that the batteries do last quite long, for some it's almost a year. I also liked the programmable panel allowing number of turns and on timer as well.

I've not see a Scalota Del Tempo in person but it looks really impressive.

How was the RubberB installation on the GMTII? I heard it wasn't easy?

It's difficult to get any of the popular models here i.e Subs, ND Subs, BLNR, DaytonaC or DeepseaBlue especially UK. The past few months I've only seen ND Subs but that didn't last long. New AirKing and Explorer is now more available.

No chance of BLNR as it's an 18 months wait on the list.

I just got back from Milan and it's the same thing, lacking in popular professional models. However wait time for BLNR is only 4 months but £400 pricier than UK.

You can opt for a watch winder?

Took some lume shots over the weekend





Some Rolex swags

Managed to check out the new Tag Heuer Pepsi today and I have to say I do like it!
It's on my watch list, no pun.

I'm in the UK and the shop told me they just got it 2 days ago. It's retailing for £2150 (Rm11,888) here but I would presume it would be a lot cheaper in Msia?

New incoming Will upload more when I get better photos

I think I'll create a separate thread for it as I have quite a fair few photos.

Wrist shot

I was looking for something dressier, inconspicuous and one with a power reserve indicator. This watch will probably won't get a second look in the public and easily dismissed. Not many would know of VC What really sold to me was the invitation to the FiftySix launch party. Tried them on and loved it there and then.

I did try the Overseas multiple times but unfortunately it's a tad big for my slim wrist, just couldn't pull it off even with the rubber strap. Tbh the Overseas is of good value in comparison to the AP.

The FiftySix is 40mm. I agree the Overseas is actually not that big but it's the lug (similar to AP Royal Oak) which wouldn't allow the bracelet/strap to wrap around the wrist. I guess it's ok for most people but my wrist is slim at 6.25" It's a shame as I love the Overseas in blue dial. In comparison, my ExplorerII wears better despite it being bigger at 42mm.

Visited both my favourite boutique at Old Bond Street.



Was contemplating between the Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Manual wind or the Lange. Both on Pink Gold which I'm starting to appreciate more over white gold.



Love the hand guillochè dial on the boutique edition



or the Lange?





or an Up Down. Probably not this one as it's off my budget, but the normal white dial.

I'm quite torn over the blue dial Lange as well, I think I may be able to stretch the budget a little bit more. Also it's limited to 25 pieces.
Such a hard choice to mull over.
