Google and read about Tag Heuer's history especially pre-Tag era would be a good help. And please let us know if you able to get staff price on the wacthes rclxms.gif

cool Hw-Racer..30% good deal....photos next

firstly, must pay respect to patryn....so patiently and expertly answer all questions

at present, eyeing either Stowa Flieger series (read in earlier post someone ordered and waiting for arrival from Germany). will PM him to post here if it arrived...

another option is the Tourby Big Pilot series...(slightly more expensive)..

what is holding me back is if there turned out to be a problem and repair/services is needed....I know the Germans are quite effective but we'll never know....I am so used to dropping my Seiko/Tissot to my favourite AD and let them handle it...

so...rather undecided.....in end, maybe play `safe' and for military/pilot styled Oris/Fortis models...sigh...

BTW, the Collectorstime.com setup..they have a shop in KL right? if we walk in and see those online items, can further negotiate the price down?
