budget around 300-500.

-simple type(how should i say..it looks like IWC).
-leather or steel strap
-analog.
-at least date function. no chronograph
-auto is optional

BALL! The build quality is top class and the lume is amazing.

Great looking watch. What's the size? looks damn big haha. I love big watches 43mm fits right on my wrist.

Nope...a few arrived..waiting for 2-3 more

Ones arrived:






There's one more that's arrived but no time to post it yet. Looks very much like Panerai...will post it ASAP.

do give a review of the places U had shopped at.

I got most of them at ebay except the Stuhrling (Black, round case) I got from Amazon.

All were smooth transactions and pretty fast delivery.

couldn't afford a Co-axle Omega, here is a alternative Sinn!

75X series come with this new Diapal escapement. although the movement is 7750, one don't have to service that frequently.

hi bro, can u tell me where to get those Russian watch around KL?

red army!!! however their prices very high.. might as well get online on sites such as http://www.russia2all.com/
http://www.redarmywatches.com/contact.asp

Yes, Red Army outlet in Pavillion and Tropicana City Mall to try out their watches.

I'm not sure if it's popular here, but Hamilton Frogman is a good series for big watches. Not many that I could find here
