Re: 25 hour watch
I think workmanship costs can vary tremendously. Personally, I feel it is charged at what you can bear type of thing. If the end product is good, then I think most people would pay especially if the watch to be restore costs many times more. If it is a very cheap piece with no other attached value l...

Re: 2014- NewYear, New Watch Type, New Technews!
I think someone has said before that such gadgets do not occupy the same space as mechanical watches or even digital ones.
So , the short anwser is No.
But I may get one if it totally replaces the handphone. To wear on my right hand of course...

Re: Swatch sistem 51 in singapore
Yup, last I heard they only have it in Orchard Gateway. Now it seems Jem also has it. But as with most Swatch, you can only get them in their boutiques or counters. I must say the watches look and feel cheap but the design and the thought that went into it, it is worth collecting. It helps that they...

Re: Automatic or quartz
2380USD from higuchi shipped, so around 3k when converted with GST included.[/quote
Wow thats quite a bit for a quartz movement, GS notwithstanding.
I would probably go for the spring drive tuna at around 4.5k....poison poison..
Well whatever floats your boat man..happy hunting..

Re: Automatic or quartz
You can check thread on spring drive sweep hands. It was mentioned that there are quartz watches with continuous sweep. The Buluva for one I think.demogoblin wrote:Only thing about quartz is the lack of a continuous second hand sweep. That one is beautiful

Re: Automatic or quartz
I love quartz accuracy and fuss free pick up and go. But to drop hundreds or even thousands on a quartz can be heart pain, especially if u flip your watches. Buyers will always say it's just a quartz, make it sound like a bad thing then push your asking price down, doesn't matter if it's a high acc...

Re: Automatic or quartz
Just to add in, if accuracy is reallh very anal to you, then always go for quartz or plonk out more for spring drives. My most accurate watch in my modest assembly is a Casio. So far 0 seconds difference over 1 month already. Even with the best mechanical over time it will drift. So...you decide.. A...
