I used my Canon S90 for these pics. It's a very capable point & shoot camera. The S95 is even better.

Hi danny,

Congratz on your new watch  :)

Thanks Abel.

Thanks kltime. Glad u like the watch.

Danny, please let me abuse molest it during next GTG  ;D

Hi Chris,
I think you mean to say that it looks bigger on my relatively thin wrist.  ;D
Need to work out more.

You're right. Actually it's nearly impossible to increase the wrist diameter because it's size is mainly due to bone structure.
So I can forget about wearing those gigantic size watches as seen on Sly and Arnie recently.  :'(

We understand your busy schedule Terrence. We'll make sure to have a special meetup for you the next time you're in KL.

Normally my business trips to Singapore are quite tight with only the occasional small time windows to sneak in visits to Gnomon.
Anyway if I do make longer trips to Singapore I'll be sure to let you guys know.

I tried my best to resist but somehow this piece managed to hitch a ride home with me:
