up another 30% of your budget and get a mb&f LM 101 if you like those indie brands... else you can get a patek 5227J with the same 30% increased budget. Happy hunting bro...

Not a bad idea actually. 120k seems like within the price range and now probably more negotiable \\ dream mode ON \\ and maybe bundle a SS Daytona into the deal \\ dream mode OFF \\

If only watches are accessible at retail. They'd so much options and with more cash to spare. Dreaming.
I like lots of watches but can only afford a few

My first aim is still PP, then follow by Rolex. But as of January this year, none of the outlets in Msia, S'pore, Taiwan, Vietnam (only Rolex) had the basic models I desired...

Well , I will keep trying in this watch hunting game.   :Praying:

Taiwan, Vietnam, S'pore borders still not yet opened.

But I will certainly go to look for Rolex SS sport models when Covid19 ban is gone. :Jumping:

Do sure what you find especially those you decide not to buy so the rest of us can fight over it

Those brands are what you buy when you already have the world at your feet and you got nothing else to throw money at...

Just curious... it's been almost 2 months since you asked. Have you decided which watch to spend the RM120k on?

Very difficult in making the choice.
