QUOTE(exdtan @ Feb 2 2020, 02:43 PM) What’s your IG bro ? All for Seiko or you have collections for few other brand as well ? My Instagram WristWatch PageI'll be posting on all watch related stuff that I own in general also to highlight on watch straps that I'll be bringing in to sell found a distributor that supplies to a singapore dealer, but their rrp has quite a high margin so I'm bringing in to test market here while offering a better price point and also on the same time can share my passion for wrist watch related stuffs today's watch of the day: limited edition SARX007 out of 300 numbered pieces. this comes with an white enamel dial and blue indices which only can been seen in bright lighting shining on it from certain angles

QUOTE(yvliew @ Feb 3 2020, 11:54 AM) is there a decent seiko with SS bracelet that's hackable and not a diver and presage? Either 4R or 6R movement. I want something in between diver and dress watch. Already had too many divers and also have cocktail time. If there's similar style to this with SS bracelet would be nice. Are there?  Or this, is it available locally?  But I wish they still had this SARG011 with SS bracelet  seiko spork srp043K1?

QUOTE(exdtan @ Feb 3 2020, 03:17 PM) Cool bro. How did you find this distributor ? I’m actually on the look out for distributor but for different brand. alibaba but the catch is that we need to order at least 50pcs per color per strap and size which sums up to quite a few hundreds for minimal order just to get the logo customization on the band at the moment I just bring in 20mm to see how it goes. if got good response then I will bring more different designs and sizes in the future

QUOTE(exdtan @ Feb 4 2020, 01:33 PM) Cool bro. I’m looking for entry level luxury watch distributor/reseller. Wonder how’s the market here haha there will always be a market but in the niche category here which is not easy to stand out among so many other small scale competitors feels like people who are seriously into watch collection are all about the brand horology and brand image

QUOTE(khopl @ Feb 7 2020, 02:31 PM) Too much bling....but thats just me. I think it would be really nice if paired with a ladies watch...for the missus perhaps. everybody in life would love some bling to feel young and crazy again anyway I was just switching up the bands to get a new feel whenever I can to explore more new strap options

QUOTE(Everdying @ Feb 16 2020, 12:51 PM) at first I thought her hand was wearing the sumo  anyway...i would just cut the strap... use a coin as a guide for the round edge etc. cut the strap like that feels weird since the middle part where both sides meet each other's stitching would disappear but anyhow is a good option to consider when cannot find shorter length straps

QUOTE(overmars @ Feb 18 2020, 04:41 PM) Guys, any pointer on where we can send our Seiko for servicing within Klang Valley? Got my SRP775K1 as a gift from relative, i think this is part of his old collection as the watch seems to +45s almost everyday (it goes faster not slower, really troublesome to re-adjust every weekend) and just yesterday beginning to die on me even though only idling for about 12 hours. I appreciate all ur suggestions, guys! can send back to your ad / shop bought from for servicing under factory otherwise can recommend you to send to steven watch fixology aka wah foong at jln raja laut I believe for your watch issue, he can just adjust the accuracy and not perform a full servicing since is still quite new

QUOTE(yvliew @ Feb 17 2020, 09:13 PM) Don't cut the original rubber strap pls as suggested by other here... it's such a waste!!! How about changing to nato? At least the excessive end can tuck in again. yaya true about wasting the nice original strap but sometimes I've seen people just don't want the hassle to buy a new strap / don't know how to change the strap easy solution is to cut it

QUOTE(overmars @ Feb 19 2020, 04:30 PM) Thanks for the recommendation, bro! Will drop by his shop one of these days. Hopefully wont be slapped with a hefty fee, it's not a rolex afterall. his pricing is quite reasonable considering that he has been in this industry servicing for many years my 6r15 movement full servicing is rm200 from him

QUOTE(Pejaltajir @ Feb 27 2020, 01:16 PM) Hi Sifus. Currently I'm eyeing the mod SKX007 from thailand. He charged my 15500 thai baht equivalent of rm2055. Is it the price is okey? Skx007 with black n green strap. Army style got pic share? modded skx are usually priced way higher than retail but if that mod suits your taste then you go through less hassle getting it done yourself
