wow nice watches mag and scott :)
heheh been wearing the 233 for almost a week while i was in Taipei last week. need a lighter watch this week. lets g out for a drink in sep. going soon. im looking a sinn u black and also BR01 phantom. cant seem to find one with nice price. must own one of those stealthy black watch. the all black hublot is kinda nice but i think its kinda overpriced.
-
kekek..yeah! If you come to KL before that can contact me ;)
I'm not sure which part of KK i will be going (first time going there though), i will be attending a wedding dinner (gf's friends). I will be staying there from 25/9 to 2/10 if i remember correctly ;)
Love the phantom but it's too big for me >:( (again)...I remember saw one in KL Pavilion but not sure if it's a 42mm or a 46mm version... can check out for you if you interested..
-
great :) i should be around that time if there's no work related travelling :) im looking for the 46mm version. glad if u can check for me only when u r free/when u do pass by that area :) btw my buddy is also looking for a 190. how much did u pay for yours? it looks good on your wrist.
-

Hi
Went to Lam place 2 weeks ago. saw one U black, complete set takes around rm5k. Touch and feel it. Heavy though but solid like a submariner
Went again last Sunday, that piece gone with the wind.
By the way what's the market for a pre-owned piece?

rm5k? r u sure? or the latest sdr? u black was sold at rm8080....
-
Yeah, pretty sure. By the way, the U black takes RM5 for pre-owned.
NIB - RM8k.
Too bad that piece just gone with the wind.

Just posted U1 Black http://www.sg-roc.com/showthread.php?t=14906 for S$3.4k
-
s3.4k is normal to me... thats why i said if ah lam sell for rm5k... i'll fly there!
bnib here is rm8080
internet selling usd 2.4-2.6k
-
Lam maybe bought it for MYR1.5K and sell it MYR5K or it consignment product to Lam. He maybe just earn few hundred... which to him (Lam), it's pretty good deal ;)
I think the 2nd hand price is fair (MYR5K) for this U1 black. Just my opinion. I still prefer the original U1.. Too many stealth-look-a-like (pvd, all black dial) watches now.

i also find myself prefer the original u1... thats why i sold my u black....
original design is very easy to read! readability is a must for divers....
other than that i also like the uboat steel original color!

When at Lam's place, I have actually ask him to take out the U black (PVD coating / Diamond crush coating ?) for my handling and feeling, (Normally do that at any watch shop). A group of us WIS was discussing about this watch where I did mentioned that this model uses 2824 movement and Lam agreed.
We did also bring out the possibility of what will happened if the coating were to chip off and Lam just shake his head.
Yes, It is a commission piece placed there by his regular customer. When we mentioned rm5k, which prompt Lam to negotiate. I was tempted too but hold onto my horses as I have just committed on a IWC ingenieur and a cartier Santos recently.
I am with Scott as I still prefer the normal sub steel.....U1/2.
Lam's place is at the Summit - USJ. We can drop by at his place and go yam-char on a Sat.
What say you.

hey, sinn tegsimented the bezel and buckle after pvd done... so it is very hard and scratch free like normal u1?
sinn u black still use 2824.... not only engraved on rotor but sinn is like damasko, harden the excape wheel to make it last longer....
yes iwc ingineur always on list.... pls look at my other thread... about the amg in central market...
yum char? what time lam open? if ealier i can also join... later got to go back seremban...
maybe breakfast then visit simon and ah lam in the morning....
-
The original U1 is more practical watch than the black U1. I find the black U1 is more of a novelty like u adding gems to a GMT 2 or Submariner. It looks cool nevertheless :) I don't know if u can view the display under low light where the light is not enough light to charge the lume and not bright enough to read the dial clearly.
-
the lume is no good and doesnt last long.... so reading in low light is still ok.... but without the contrast is not as good....
-
its a nice watch. finally seen it in person. but i find the buckle a bit "ugly" its so huge.. still deciding on whether to get it or not... will be in kl on the 24th.. maybe i'll go THG cc again..
whats on your wrist today guys???

Hi guys,
Hope it's not too late to join the fun.
I have on my wrist today one of the best value in a dive watch, the Alba "Manta Ray" 200m diver. Ticking inside is the Seiko 7S26 caliber.
