No experience..

But saw many for sale.. around 1.5k used..

Their warranty papers showing Singapore

Movement using ETA? ETA are accurate, just that power reserve a bit on the lower side.. however, experience with an ETA for watches below 10k kinda bad.. power reserve doesn't stay, time stopped when wearing, blablabla

Got once directly from their official website.
Got the Steinhart Nav B Uhr 44mm, superb watch for its money.

IMO, Steinhart offer best value for money for a Swiss Movement watch.

Alternatively, you can get from gnomon also but the price will be higher.

How easy was it buying from steinhart website ?
I tried once but the communication was not easy...email responses take at least 2 days. and it takes quite a while before they let you know its out of stock and that you have to wait for a month to get your watch. The watch I believe is awesome but their admin does not follow that trend.

It was quite simple and easy to order from Steinhart last time.

I recalled that once I made the payment via Paypal, they will send you a confirmation email, follow by ship out notification.
Within 2 weeks time, I have received the package via FedEx.

Their email response is slow. Hence, I just ordered it via the website cart system. Without having much communication with them via email.

previously I've owned 3 pieces of 42mm steinhart's ocean one selita movements naming the blue smurf sunburst dial + gnomon's limited edition and the titanium 500 in the past which I've sold all due to the larger case size which looks too big on my wrist.

thinking that I've pass the homage days for quite a while then early this year saw their new offering and immediately feel in love and gotten the latest release ocean 39 GMT batman bezel once it was released by steinhart from gnomonSG. been wearing it for the past 3 months in rotation and I still consider steinhart timepieces to have good value for their build quality with the ETA movement that is considered to be a workhorse movement by many enthusiast.

however, only recommend you to buy it after trying hand on your wrist and if you don't mind others saying its a homage or rolex wannabe smile.gif

Lucky to say that my previous order didn't catch the attention from the custom.
So it is tax-free tongue.gif

If not mistaken tax from Msia should be around 6%.
