swatch, their designs are very nice..i am also a college student too, and i love swatch haha~

ranging from 100 above,but basically those above 300 one look better and more versatile~~i dont have any specific model to recommend u..u can browse in lot10, there has a swatch shop~~

ground floor similar with guess and opposite of esprit~

u may like to consider guess and fossil too~~

very practical person! why drive a BMX if a Proton can also take U from place A to B! better yet, public transport can do that already!
Why big house, waste Electric on Air Con.. esp when when sleeps only take up so much space.

I say better yet don't need a watch! just use your mobile! No need to sync time even when u go overseas. provider will update it for it!

Congrats on your Oris purchase!
yes they only produce automatic watches, in the past its 100% ETA today to lower the cost of manufacturing they getting Sellita movement.
Nothing wrong with that, patent on ETA 2428 expired and Sellita is making the same movement branding it SW 200.

my Dad wore a Oris big crown complication (moonphase) great watch.
just make sure U oil/clean the movement every 4-5yrs!

what here missed is Epos! They make only mechanical watches, plenty of display back. for higher range even have blue screws!
price range is decent, in Southeast Asia, there is only Malaysia has a distributer!
found a online dealer base off in KL  http://www.orolus.com/epos.shtml


those fallen in love with blue screws, for a great deal try Stowa. They do not make many watches. Do need to order 1st and wait for mths to get a watch!

other brands that are overlooked... Louis Erard (discount these days range from 30-50%), JeanRichard.. many AD clearly old stock giving as high as 65% discount to make way for their inhouse JR1000 movement. grey market can even find it go as high as 80%!

when u go for guess, fossil etc..
do look at the back of the watches.. if they did not state movement from where.. most likely its China!
