For automatic watch with classic design.

I saw Fossil automatic watch after discount 700+ but I don't like it.

the company is located in HK..boss is a HK ppl..

that Swiss Made classification is a marketing trick..

It is not generally known that quite a few Swiss companies have watches assembled in China for export to North America, Asia and even Europe, where the brand name is more important than the “Swiss made” label. Such watches may consist of a Chinese case and a Chinese crystal, a Taiwan-made dial and metal bracelet and Japanese hands. If the movement is to be considered Swiss, 51% of its value must be Swiss and at least the last wheel must be added in Switzerland. Swiss watch brands without the “Swiss made” label are usually equipped with a Japanese movement. The “Swiss parts” label means that the movement is assembled in Asia using kits consisting at least partially of Swiss made components (wiki)

Doesn't mean I will like it. I bought Titus because I really like the simple and classic design although now think abit 1.7k+ is indeed expensive. I will wear for 10 years atleast

hopefully city chain CS improve alot la

last time i read many complains about their CS..
*
They said last time because their staffs did not go through training to provide good after sales service.

One of them already wore Titus for 2-3 years no issue so far. And he didn't mind to let me use a key to test its sapphire glass

Before 1980 Sovil et Titus still considered a good prestige watch as it made in Swiss. But the company being sold and moved to Hong Kong in the late 70's hence it lost its prestige as a Swiss watch.

As long it can last 10 years without any issue, I'm fine
