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...

You guys damn steady. Buy watches as gifts for friends..

My time just say happy birthday niah...

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...

I used autosol on one of my old seiko once. Shines it right up. Still looks good after many years.

Now lagi put of reach. Really liked the red blue one too but in white gold only so the price will be way too high. For me...

Can try K2. I put mine on a leather strap from Fossil, imthink about 50 bucks or you can try Nato or Zulu.

Really a personnal choice.

Happy hunting.

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...

I like the red one... nice collection is you have there.

Wow my friend, you are really going for it..looks like you are fast tracking your collection. How many have you hoot already..

Enjoy.

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..

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.

Nice with tuna shroud and sub insignia. Is this an official piece or modded?

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...

Good to hear abro who knows what he is looking for ! Happy hunting.

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...

Wow astron.. high tech stuff. Looks like you lean towards non mech movements..hahaha.

Huh? GS quartz also? Not really leh. Have seen many that hits the mark spot on everytime.

gS got less than 3k??? Sorry I a it mountain tortoise here. Care to share? I am actually comparing between 1000m quartz tuna and emperor tuna. Trying to convince MOF to give approval before purchase . But so far all watches shown to her got a yucks and ugly reaction from her lol. Sent from my iPad ...
