I was wondering about this. Do it mean we cannot change when 9pm to 3am because the day/date is suppose to change so it might break smtg internally? How bout 9am to 3pm? Is it ok to change because the day/date is not affected?

heard from a friend that this brand is one of the more affordable mechanical watches?

hmm, prolly affordable for people who wants to start owning a mechanical watch not too pricey n not too cheap...

i hv seen this at KLCC, but can't find the black version
SKX779

plkvoon , at one glance, I thought the Longines is 42-44mm The Panerai would cover your whole wrist. Just kidding

silverwave , yes you can change the date/day during 9am to 3am as the mechanism is not function during that time.

Lurker , IMHO Mido is an entry level swiss watch brand. Do try is yourself see whether you like it. It is available in Watchshoppe.
For the Seiko Monster, most of the watch dealer does carry it, is not a big problem to find one.

thanks for the info ck77
yea.. my friend told me to check out swiss watches over japan ones

Thanks for clearing my doubt.

Hello...Can i know what brand this watch..?

Glad I could help guys

Fine Net , I have no idea and the picture is too small to tell.

i don't have the big one...
anyway,TQVM...

guys, i wanted to get a good watch for myself, den i saw Cyma and tissot, budget around 1.5k here but i dono which 1 is a better buy?? i like design something like longines tat has been posted here, thin and not so small round shape, any good recommendation? ball is nice too, simple but too pricey for me

All are good brands, but between Cyma and Tissot, I'll choose the latter. With your budget, do check out Oris also. Good luck

Tissot is a good watch. My dad has one and although he never really takes good care of it, it still shines out.

Added on December 22, 2008, 4:00 pmI thought the minumum for Oris is around 2k++? It's a good watch too.

Thats why you need to nego Oris normally could offer 30% discount. (or more )

I see. 30% is a lot.

Btw, how do u guys take care of your watch? Do you polish it, wipe it daily or just use it without bothering?

i havent started using the longines yet... i had severely injured my right thumb... so it's difficult for me to put and take out the buckle.... so just waiting for my thumb to heal before wearing it.... lucky last week the conversion rate by the credit card(thai baht vs rm) is not as high as i expected lar... kekekeke...

well i do agree if a panerai is on my wrist, it will be sure covering my whole wrist... kekekkekee... but purchasing it still long way to go... now focusing on buying a house.. hope that next year will be a good time buying one lar.....
