Fell in love with the SSC081

Almost pulled the trigger, but then hold back as I didnt do any research yet,

By the way, the SUN019 price increased to 780 liao at 3D.
May May had both SUN019 and SUN021

For bargains la... of course... :wink:
Really. When comes to price bargaining, 3D price quite stern one. @ least 2 times when i tried to bargain with the sales gals... they often refer me to their "HOD" uncle because i can be too hard to handle. Then the "HOD" also give me a "NB"(not buying) kind of look. That often leaves no room for further negotiation, that i will just leave.
WINs? I no need to mention what kind of price 3D offers. When i go straight to the lao jiao gals, their quoted price to me straight away will be very swee liaoz! :mrgreen:

There one young guy at wins who serve me. Even after the std 35% off retail price, he can still round down to the nearest tenth.

That's nice but sadly their kinetic Gmt divers still at very little discount, more ex than Mustafa, though WINS gives a free one watch winder when u buy a SUNxx Gmt diver...but I was thinking, winders don't work with kinetic watches?

Bro Oncleoliver, the is a newer version under the Prospex line, you may wanna check it out at Mei Mei or 3D. I am also trying to find out what other changes are there other than the cosmetic changes.

They do, just that you can't stop winding at ~650 rotations. You need to keep doing it into the x000 range to get full charge.

Supposedly for the 5J22 Auto Relay with a 2+ year reserve, its 20,000+ !!!

You still can use them. Just that you'll need more than 1 full day of autowinding to get full charge.
