Why is that so? As mentioned by you, you have 3-5k to spend on watch.You have every right to try on any products before purchase.
Even before you buy a car, you'll go and test drive right?

Most robbers will go for ah pek Rolex, gold and bling bling. I scare robber aim at me because i got lolex (i dont have 1 yet) So is pretty safe if you go for the sporty range, i.e. Submariner, Explorer, GMT etc |

Better not to stereotype all teenagers. I'm in my early 20s and I know my stuffs, not just because "kids" who look at tags do not know about pammy. Watches like glashutte original, gerald genta, lange n sohne, FP, AP and the list goes on are not quite hype in Malaysia's market. First of all, the earning power of Malaysia is disappointing, an average joe won't be able to spend like say 50k on an AP. Hence, they won't even bother walking into shops like SINCERE and not know about it. Different strokes for different folks, and yes I'm the type who looks at the outlook first before the movement. Btw, cortina watches do give a big chunk of discount when they have private sales for CIMB preferred members

Btw, cortina watches do give a big chunk of discount when they have private sales for CIMB preferred members i would think the main problem is the terrible exchange rate. Fellas neighbor down south earning Sing dollars maybe can fork out 4kSing for a brand new Omega. Our 4kRM can only buy you a decent Oris/Ball.
