QUOTE(swanlover @ Nov 18 2021, 07:49 PM) Matter of time Rolex will swallowed them… Not this time though. Rolex is very vertically integrated and don’t need another movement maker. The only reason why they use Kenissi is because of costs. Rolex always telan the entire supplier chain..lolx They priced Tudor as cheap watches and needed a cheap Swiss movement that is not as common as Selita, Valjoux or ETA. Vaucher and Concepto are too expensive. So that leaves Kenissi as the cheap ETA alternative. A little know fact is that Tudor watches sent in for servicing are not serviced per se. They will just replace the movement as it is cheaper to do so. |

It’s using in-house movement and there are no official service centers here locally. Seasoned collectors know to avoid brands with in-house movements and no official service centers to supply spare parts. Those two who voted NOMOS must be noobs. |

Taking into account the servicing costs is what separates the seasoned collectors from noobs and wannabes. Rule of thumb is servicing will cost around 10% of the current MSRP price. 30k watch? Be prepared to pay around RM3k now and more later when the watch MSRP goes up or it gets to vintage status.Vintage simple 3 handed omegas are getting hit with a RM8k minimum for servicing by the Swatch Group.

You be wearing the same watch as everyone else, from a kid to uncle aunty. Its not a timeless/historical value watch, as every year Apple release a new version just like phone. Even those pasar malam smartwatch design is similar to Apple Watch nowadays. I wont feel special/appreciative wearing it but thats just my preference.I would pick this watch as my lowest choice. |

In-house means unique movement produced and used exclusively by the brand. You don’t call Hamilton and Tissot watches with ETA movements in-house even though it is made by ETA and they are all part of the Swatch Group. So, the same logic applies to Tudor and Kenissi. Kenissi also makes movements for Chanel, Breitling and a lot of other micro brands. This post has been edited by PoorButHumble: Nov 18 2021, 09:30 PM |

Most collectors learned the hard way when they are well into a decade of collecting. That’s when the watches they purchased earlier in their collecting phase will start to break down and require servicing. Even those that you don’t wear will also need servicing at the 10 year mark due to the oils inside the movement drying up. i just love to watch from afar. I learned the hard way when watches in my collection broke down one after another. I remember spending over $20k in one year just on servicing fees before I started to sell watches that I don’t wear that much anymore. In the past, I had a sizable collection but had to consolidate into a smaller more manageable collection due to not wanting to maintain all of them. |

QUOTE(PoorButHumble @ Nov 18 2021, 09:39 PM) Ya. Most collectors learned the hard way when they are well into a decade of collecting. That’s when the watches they purchased earlier in their collecting phase will start to break down and require servicing. Even those that you don’t wear will also need servicing at the 10 year mark due to the oils inside the movement drying up. So end up wht is your collection now?I learned the hard way when watches in my collection broke down one after another. I remember spending over $20k in one year just on servicing fees before I started to sell watches that I don’t wear that much anymore. In the past, I had a sizable collection but had to consolidate into a smaller more manageable collection due to not wanting to maintain all of them. |

PRX is a steal if you only got few k budget…

I recommend a used quarzt Grans Seiko. Got mine for around 8k.
Build quality better than rolex. No need berthousand ringgit servicing after a few years. When you wanna wear, just pick up and go, no need set and wind. Real watch ppl wont look down on your poor quartz watch (most of them anyway) |

QUOTE(PoorButHumble @ Nov 18 2021, 09:00 PM) Million dollar question is where are you going to get your NOMOS serviced? It’s using in-house movement and there are no official service centers here locally. I like Nomos also. Service ah? It’s an excuse to travel to Germany ones every 5-7 years I guess 😂Seasoned collectors know to avoid brands with in-house movements and no official service centers to supply spare parts. Those two who voted NOMOS must be noobs. |

QUOTE(PoorButHumble @ Nov 18 2021, 09:27 PM) It’s still not in-house. In-house means unique movement produced and used exclusively by the brand. Same scenarios with Omega as they don’t make their own movements but supplies from ETA. Yup, Co-Ax exclusively for Omegas, but the MT is also exclusively for Tudor (or maybe shared with much expensive Breitling only). Chanel and other micros can’t touch this…You don’t call Hamilton and Tissot watches with ETA movements in-house even though it is made by ETA and they are all part of the Swatch Group. So, the same logic applies to Tudor and Kenissi. Kenissi also makes movements for Chanel, Breitling and a lot of other micro brands. |

In fact you can mail it to them and get it mailed back if you really want to service in Glashutte. Insured package of course. |

Nomos is a good watch. But the lack of a point of service locally makes it not really desirable compared to other mid tier watches like Tudor or Tag Heuer.
It’s like owning a mid tier car like an Oldsmobile or Opal in Malaysia. How are you going to get it serviced? Courier it to the USA every service interval? |

QUOTE(fuzzy @ Nov 19 2021, 12:23 AM) And who in their right mind would want to steal a watch that can't be serviced? Easier to just Rob Rolex and sell that. Steal Nomos have to send to Germany via post then get stolen again like bodo. Steal it and turn it into a RM15 loot box. Why not? Easy money. Don't get upset la because I sus you as nasigorengman.

Ok la nasigorengman...
At the end, your argument hinges on the off chance the watch goes missing when you ship it overseas. Which no one that has sent a Nomos watch has experience before but okay. But it's safe when the watch dealers do it. Because somehow their insurance is more valid than the ones we can buy? And we agree AP owners are dumb for not insisting the dealer's dont personally sent it Switzerland. And all mail couriers are thieves according to you so we should never ever use courier service. Ever. COD best. Oh wait... https://www.astroawani.com/berita-malaysia/...am-rolex-328644 |

wah very long time no see watch tered in /k already.
I think to be safe go with Tudor, very versatile watch and can't go wrong with a lolex sister company, it'll probably last a few generations. resale value probably the best out of all you listed. This post has been edited by thxxht: Nov 19 2021, 11:08 AM |

Nah my BB58. After almost 3 years still looks very good whenever my eye catches it.
Wanna get a Daytona or GMT, sub looks a little boring to me, but I can't for the life find an AD that can sell me one. I don't wanna pay grey market prices for then. Any advice if someone can spare me some? Thinking of getting an Omega Seamaster 300m...to my unrefined eyes is a better looking than a sub. Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(sordidi @ Nov 18 2021, 06:43 PM) unker bas sekolah friedricetheman come give your opinion about pipit trying to fly high for helang watch. Best bang for buck in mid range is still Longines or Tissot. Ball used to be good but have fallen off the wagon in recent years with their sus online distribution business model. Tissot PRX, Longines Legends Diver and Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical are great mid tier options that don’t cost as much as it looks. |

QUOTE(Quang1819 @ Nov 23 2021, 10:23 AM) what about Oris Oris is okay but cannot beat Longines powermatic 80 models. I like the Oris diver 65 and feel that it is quite a versatile watch. |

QUOTE(friedricetheman @ Nov 22 2021, 08:58 AM) Hey piece of shit. What gives you the right to drag my name in the mud like that? I thought we were friends. LolI can see you simp hard for Speedy and Nomos also I don’t call you out for it. Almost every Tuesday, you will “showcase” your Speedy in “Speedy Tuesday” and do wrist shots of your Nomos at every chance in every watch thread. That’s an even more hardcore brand suck up. Do me a favor and go fuck yourself. |
