when u get auto watches, don't expect accuracy.
get a quartz or a spring drive they do much better.
or get those radio sync watches.

its non negotiable. I know someone on WUS that had shop with them. wanted to get the LE Zenith but its rubber and blue, not something classic..
good review, smooth transaction. one of the few grey market dealers that provide dealer stamp warranty card.

whats your budget?
auto or quartz?
if U are rough with watches get longines conquest with Ceramic Bezel. its cost ~US$1k. U would not find scratch on bezel

some brands to look at
- Mk2  http://www.mkiiwatches.com/
- Steinhart  http://www.steinhartwatches.de/
- orange watch company  http://www.orangewatchcompany.com/
- ocean7  http://www.ocean7watchco.com/cs1/  ( prices start from us$499)
- http://www.guinand-watch.com/ (owned by Sinn founder)
- Bernhardt http://www.bernhardtwatch.com/
- DAVOSA  http://www.davosawatches.com/
- d.freemont   http://www.dfreemontwatches.com/

the current design looks retro to me.

just get it since u like it. I think U are attracted to the red dial.
if U look at value for money.. at this price range 1.2k and wanna a chrono.. i think Seiko, Orient more value for money.

I know somewhere that sells that spaceship watch for about RM12k.. hmm.. The price increase for Tag will be soon but no idea when exactly it'll be, maybe 1st of april as well like what other brands are doing.
HW-Racer : I don't think it'll be a problem getting 20% off for omega. The RRP is currently RM12200 which will increase in the next 24 hours.
terence: just withdraw the money n buy it. don't hesitate, u'll regret when u can't get it at the current price but to fork out another few hundred. The minimal percentage increase is 6%, I know someone who works in LVMH malaysia, so yea.
