The 3 colors have different prices. I think it's 30% off the retail to be safe.

For the red, it should be $480. 30% off $688. Wonder if King Wah will still give 40% off as usual.

Brown actually has the most customisation.

Eg, the bronze finishing on the bezel, the dial is brown and the strap is brown as well, not forgeting about the brown rubber shroud.

Relooked at the bronze one again. Still didnt do it for me either.

For those FHFL hoot one hor, can help to verify if ur 12o clock marker is in line with the chapter ring 12 oclock?

The one i have is abit off centre, the other red piece also abit off centre.

Hi,

We have to see which store have them, our favourite store K2 did brought in quite a number of pieces but stocks seems to be flying off the shelf as we speak.

Yeah, I like the brown one for precisely the same reasons (not that I will buy/wear it though). The two other variants are naturally easier to like of course, since their colour schemes are rather conventional.

good day sirs.
just want to post a question regarding this watch as well as 4rxx movements in general.

when you start to manually wind the crown, it makes a light smooth whirring sound.
have you ever experienced hearing or "feeling" an intermittent clicking sound that accompies the winding whirring sound?

is this a problem with the movement? others have speculated that it could mean that the power in the sporing i at full capacity & the clicking sound is an indication that we should stop winding...

any thoughts?
TIA :D
