Our station is so over crowded, if we really form 2 lines before the train door, it will lead all the way to the entry gates

yup, i saw a Seiko Alpinist Quartz full lume GMT(my model) when I was there ard 6yrs ago from a shop, it was about $700sgd
seikos are generally more pricier over there as wat other bros had mentioned but instead, go for g-shocks, they tend to have models which sillypore haven bring in yet or dun even have it. eg: vintage colour riseman, 2 yrs ago
