Breguet hands... try china seagull they are affordable. that swatch isn't it a quartz?

Wow, cheap and nice, thanks for the info! And according to WatchUSeek, Seagull movements are very accurate too. Might just consider them for my next watch biggrin.gif

No, that Swatch is an automatic. The other automatic is a skeleton. The rest are chrono, I believe.

those ST21 are nice work horse, even some swiss company copy their design and manufacture it in Switzerland.
issue with seagull branded watches is quality esp U are getting direct from china. although their movement when regulated well are accurate but they do have QC issue. most Foreigner on watchuseek I believe got it from seagullusa, I read some where they did some QC on their own. many yrs ago so many return.. LEMONS!

yeap. i've got a few names on my list. it'll be my goal, one at a time. if all goes well, i'll get one very soon. smile.gif

i think, for a 6" wrist, the perfect size is 42mm diameter, 47mm lug-to-lug, 13mm thick. but this is my opinion.

Guys, need some opinion here

I need a Class and Professional watch here

The PRC200 yellow needle and the Automatic 1 is RM1K difference
The Automatic seems much more class n professional look
However its quite huge for my hand.

my opinion, if you don't like oversize watches, then don't.

i was looking for a dive watch and i found Sinn U1. superior watch, excellent quality. but it was too big for my wrist. with oversize watches, it's either love it or hate it IMO.

the auto is more sporty.. not really classy IMHO
the auto is 4mm larger.. auto esp 7750 usually cost more. the movement along cost around US$400 already. the quartz maybe US$70. so the extra 1k u putting up isn't really that much.
U might wanna look for Hamilton, maybe Christopher Ward (http://www.christopherward.co.uk/), similar price range.

wait, what do u mean class n professional? a dress watch suitable to wear to office n functions? or something that looks like a tool watch? or something that looks looks serious like military type? do you want a clean dial or a busy dial like chrono?

how about certina?

somehow, the only watch i could think of that is classy n professional at the same time is Omega SMP. or Omega PO. or Rolex Submariner

retail rm$4.5-5k I think.
look like rolex datejust, or Tudor classic esp the cyclops eye.
look something those titoni cosmo queen too (in fact ball and titoni using the same unmod eta 2671). they are not big in malaysa but big in thailand, certina is kinda big locally.

arent those railway clocks implemented in Mondaine watches? IMHO still one of the best design in terms of visibility and ease of time telling...
