LOL i google alot AFTER I have bought this... and i think my 2nd one would be a Grand Seiko...seems like the effort put into it is really awesome! so probably price would still hover around Rm20k+- by then  not sure how many would agree, but often read comment on youtube that says : 'you buy a rolex to impress others, you get a grand seiko to impress yourself'. will definitely wanna impress myself more moving fwd..jst through youtube video i was really impressed with GS Snowflake..so..beautiful.......................!!!!

IMO that statement is pretty insecure and kinda bashing rolex but I cannot deny that the finishing on a grand seiko is awesome and if you're going for the spring drive, it's basically the best of both worlds; having quartz like accuracy but mechanical movements. I'd say the grand seikos are very good bang for buck for what you're getting.

PS: Btw from the previous thread, mind sharing where you able to get DJ at that price ?  my bad for the misleading previous thread. i wanted to get something at around rm10k..but eventually decided to increase the amount a little and get something else. so end up spending additional 18k for that DJ on top of my initial plan
