was at Thongsia today ... is there always a 10% discount? the sales rep mentioned that currently there is a 10% discount on all watches...

[CoolieND]

You mean a minimum 30-40% markup in watch prices, so that sellers can give 'discounts'? Yes there are.....

lol, yeah

Pics of the Sapph'd SPORK! Like it.









Yes, there is a bit of dust on it... seems like the sapphire loves fingerprints / dust. Other thing is it's not AR... perhaps should've requested as special order... oh well. Like it none the less

[EDIT] Hmm, apparently it does have an AR treatment... I'd hate to see it if it didn't! Guess that's one advantage that Hardlex has on Sapphires?

bro tis ish a domed or flat, sapp or normal xtal

[CoolieND]

Flat sapphire xtal, bought from yobokies, part of sellwatch's MO. It was $50, so all-told the Spork's worked out to ~$400.

The sapphire's got a very impressive lack of distortion... can read the 12 at the top of the dial perfectly basically until the bezel cuts it off. Sweet.

Wonder if there are other watchmakers that not only service but can repair and produce their own parts ?
