8 days only. But interesting concept. Ticks twice a second.

The balance wheel is a joy to watch.


Shouted across the road.

The wheels on the back of the watch is really really one of its kind , it's a watch that keeps people watching at the wheels and not the Time itself :D all shiok already..
The more I look at the video the more it looks like a quartz watch to me.. I mean the way how the short hand 2 jump per sec .. the hands jump exactly like my Casio :D :mrgreen:

His own prototype more shiok :shock: :o

Hmm... i wonder is it good or bad to having waiting so long for the Sistem51 to reach our shore... just checked with swatch staff, learn that sistem51 will be launched here on upcoming 25th @ Orchard Gateway. price will be 209.

Oh, yeah I think it was a mistake for Swatch to delay the launch of the sistem51 for so long. Much of the hype and hoo ha has already died down. Still I think I will likely purchase a black sistem 51...

Grey is 600eu without VAT

And the other variants...

2 tone YG and TITANIUM
Image
also close to 600eu without VAT

TITANIUM with SS
ImageImage
priced close to 520eu
The new POWERMATICS is now available @ Mustafa, but only the SS and dual tone available. Pricing wise... much higher than the first batch of POWERMATICS.
No sight of POWERMATIC 80 powered SEASTARs.

Something dressy new for 2015... now available, but limited

One of these new dress pieces caught my eyes last week @ FUNAN. Since then been looking at other shops for more variants... but kind of hard, since not all are carrying the new releases...

Very... classic design...
Image

Don't expect lumes on classic designs. But overall, the hands are nicely selected to pair the dial...
Image

The crown... not kind of common design makes a little surprize.
Image

Like the first wave of POWERMATIC dress pieces... the back case is not easy to pop off...

Price wise... will be a little tough if you're holding a budget of 900.
@ Mustafa oredi hits above that mark. The 3rd one with strap is about the same as the first with dual tone bracelet. The 3rd one is actually RG/SS dual tone, while the 1st is YG/SS dual tone. The middle one, is priced just a little lower, but still above 900...

Duh... i guess i will have to look around for other retailer who give better offer if i'm to hold roughly 800 budget lor...
