QUOTE(exdtan @ Mar 4 2020, 01:59 PM) The point I am trying to make is, who would have thought that buying japan watch in japan is almost the same as buying it oversea. Aren’t all watch brands like that? Some watches I bought overseas are marginally cheaper than buying in Malaysia, the difference is overseas might have stock for the models I wanted For seiko, there are a lot of JDM models which are slightly cheaper buying in Japan versus online like Seiya
