Neat. I like the new Swordfish Booster. It's very cool of British Masters to upgrade the size to 48mm.
The Chronofighter Oversize Night Commando SAS is also very nice.

I will make it a point to check out the new models at the boutique.

Love the SAS ltd ed , tried that one in The Gardens before.
Agree on its price point IMO is maybe rm10k too much.
What sort of movements do they use?

Graham starts out as 7750 and it is heavily modified add in the column wheel (I believe, still by Jaquet Droz). There is an old article on Graham if you are keen on reading it.

http://www.thepurists.com/watch/features/interviews/LothOct02/index.html

As for the price, it is a matter of individual appreciation and perception. The price of the watch goes hand-in-hand with the innovation in the movement. Most column wheel based chronographs are priced no less than myr20k these days (after discount). The lower end chronographs range that are sold at myr4-5k are mostly using unmodified eta (mostly non-7750/7751). You will noticed that modified eta will tend to cost much more, eg. IWC 3714 or 3717.

Strange but true enough, most people tend to find Rolex to be of value for money even though it only has a basic date function. Does it justify paying between myr 14-18k for a datejust when it is fitted with mass produced movement with only the date complication? Having said that, value is always a matter of personal opinion.

Watch collecting is a hobby that brings about personal gratification. The focus should not be on future investment value (since nobody can tell for sure how lucrative a purchase will be 10 years down the road) nor to satisfy general public sentiments. If you like the watch and you can afford it, buy it. It's as simple as that. Just my 2 cents worth of thoughts.
