8k+ should be the battery version rite? cos the normal chrono automatic (non S) already retails at 10k..

should cartier and chopard be like the more of functions kinda watch?

yes of course, and can do it with a touch of class.. I'm using the tag daily cos it's for "rough" use.. scratch also not worried.. while the other 2 are like scratch magnets..
surprisingly rolex is also "rough" use type, doesn't get scratched often and can take hard knocks on the mechanism daily.. my SUB/YM/DJ all have been daily watches one time or another...

8k is auto i think. There's is no chrono so far for the new Aquaracer. Aquaracer automatic chrono for the old model is 10k?

this series very confusing the automatic got 2 version, one is 8k + (date only) and mine (got day/date) is 10k retail (before discounts) ... (how to see, the cheaper one is round chrono buttons, mine is rectangular buttons and the steel bracelet clamps is different)

also,
checked already, should be the "quartz" chrono calibre S if 8k..

Calibre S is different. The 8k is the picture below, it's a new model using Calibre 5. It replaces the Aquaracer 300m.

oh yeah the basel looks different, something like my yachtmaster type big numbers..

oh it's calibre 5 (auto) not calibre S (quartz)

but 8k+ non chrono?.. wah.. that's expensive..

aquaracer has chrono the calibre s is using a hybrid movement which is a new technology by tag heeur

Yes, 8k before discount without chrono. I haven't seen chrono for that new design yet. That's the correct link.

Thanks buddy, will check it out.

Btw, Bangsar Village 1 or 2?

In response to an earlier question I'd say the Omega Seamaster 300M is about RM6500 or so for the quartz movement and RM11-12k for the automatic movement. I'd say get the black faced automatic movement. It's nice and chunky. Lot of weight to it. Furthermore its what James Bond uses. Let the rest go for TAG-Heuer.

wah bikervoodoo also into omegas and Hi-fi wan..

Yeah not just bikes and voodoo! Hahaha. Now Im into fashion/clothing also! Alamak!

nah cause i read your last post you said your cartier all for day use. anyways, i'm only tag user , cant get the higher end ones.

another brand i fancy is oris, the full CF williams F1 watch is damn sexy.

Which Tag do u have? Carrera? Yes, Oris is nice.

I've used the Speedmaster daily for almost a month now. So far so good.

what is the typical price range for EA watches?

i think you could get them about RM800 and above..

Hey guys may need some help here...

I was wondering whether Aquaracer Calibre S 300meters glass is tampered glass?

Im a outdoor guy...im worry that i scratch my watch if i get this model.

What about the rubber strap? Will it get quite dirty in long run (with dirt) or harden?

Thanks

had a chance to compare my frens F1 oris.. not sure what version.. but I think it's the 6-7k retail price one..

the case/bracelet built quality general finish and feel, not as good as the 8-10k tags.. (more toward those 3-4k watches range)
