Post by: beginner on February 05, 2011, 07:51:19 AM: Was browsing Steinhart website and saw many special edition watches made specially for formmers (eg, Russia, Greece, Spain and etc).
Just wondering if there's any chance for a special edition watch just for Malaysia forummers? :Jumping:

Why not? If we got the volume and willing to pay the price.
By the way, welcome to the forum.
Title: Re: Steinhart Finally Arrived
Post by: beginner on February 05, 2011, 04:41:50 PM: Am definately interested in this. Steinhart's B-uhr special edition for Russia, Turkey, Spain's Legendario edition are all very nice.
Any idea what sort of volume are we referring to (50 to 100, or more?)

"I am looking for a used pilot watch.

The answer is yes.
I see. Thanks for your reply.
From what i know steinhart offer customization on the watch right?
What if i want to change the leather strap into another one or changing the crown into another type does it add in the cost for that strap or it will substitute the stock strap?
Title: Re: Steinhart Finally Arrived
Post by: Mark on June 05, 2012, 06:28:54 PM: Gratz bro, where you ordered that?
Title: Re: Steinhart Finally Arrived
Post by: j0shua on June 06, 2012, 09:29:03 AM: German direct order watches are looking extremely attractive with the euro plunge. Time to start shopping :)
