with the recent hype of many good releases from Timex.. I'm wondering why no one talk about it here like the marlin / Q / celestial opulence automatic with ghost dial?

early this week I gotten a call from Arista Marketing offering me the Q Timex at retail price RM999 as I registered into the waiting list previously.. I think it is on a higher end pricing for a quartz timex buy heck it is a good looking watch..

ps: here is my Timex Peanuts Collection all ordered from Timex USA all on horween straps.. one donor strap from my 40th anniversary and two from nomadwatchworks..

Thats veeery high.

I managed to secure a Timex Q at around RM680 or so from the Todd Synder site, but they don't ship to Malaysia or SG ranting.gif

surprisingly I've bought more than 10pcs of seikos but never a skx yet  laugh.gif

mostly sarb scvs sarx and quite a number of vintage seikos

somehow I kinda feel the skx is overhyped

SKX now probably is.

you mean the new seiko 5 line or the old skx?

The old one of course given what it is being sold for now.

The Q was initially intended to be a LE.

But they saw the hype and quickly and quietly dropped that LE thing.

was browsing around and found out timex malaysia has all the Q Timex variations in stock.

q hype died already? no more like previously reseller market demand?

Thats because you go to a random US site to buy + shipping is also just around RM800. Belum lagi talk about discounts.

haha that's quite true about that

am wondering why our rrp is so much higher than US. interesting brand but not so about our rrp prices here in our country

if only our prices were more affordable I believe this brand might have quite a following from our younger community

Ya, especially given the low barrier to cross border shopping these days. Paying 1k for a quartz is already hard sell.
