hihi all,


has been following the thread . this is so interesting.... :lol:

I am a suay gu too.. looking for couple watches. Any good recommendations? maybe something that is not too ex... in the range of 1-2k?

Omega is a good brand. They carry stuff in boy sizes too. Also, I like the warranty. once I brought it in for checking when it stopped, and they replaced the battery (mine is quartz) for free! i think my omega seamaster cost less than 2K - but it's stainless steel and mechanical (so cheaper).


Some uncle gave my hubby a very very old Omega...it's probably 30-40 y/o - still going strong. But be warned, exp watches also cost a lot to maintain - so do think about the cost for servicing. And that's the primary reason why we stopped at 2.

For other boy sizes (saw that being mentioned), IWC has nice ones too.

Those who are not pantang about 2nd hand watches can go to http://www.passionasia.com (cannot remember if got sg or not). Their showroom is at Funan.

I personally wish for a Patek Philippe for their ability to retain value....but that will take many many long years.

I think this thread has to change name liao. Too many OT ...

Something like \"Branded goods?\" or \"Designers bags, shoes, clothings, watches\" ? :idea:

Sounds like a good deal indeed. If they appreciates like Rolex, it is a good keep.

Which are the classic Rolex designs? Just out of curiosity, by how much has yours appreciated?

Hi Busymom,

The entry level one, just plain face without diamonds and stainless steel design is about $5k. There are some boy face watch which might be slightly cheaper like $4.5k. Those with 11 tiny diamonds as dial is $9k and above... if i'm not wrong. the same diamond dial watch was about $5-6k 10 years ago.[/quote]Busymom, tree nymph is pretty much right.

Busymom, tree nymph is pretty much right. 8)[/quote]Price of branded watches keeps going up, never seems to come down :?

Maybe gotta seriously think about JLC or Patek :!:

But I think the ones that retain value would be mechanical watch rather than quartz.

The one I am drooling over is about $20K. Not sure about entry levels.

Got mine at $12k years ago. And of course, regretted I didn't get a nicer one cos the prices have more than doubled.
