Long holidays are around the corner.
For those who are in town, its a good idea to get together for a yam cha session.

With fewer traffics around the Klang valley (Raya), its easier to drive around town, what say you?

may I ask if there are any watch repair place in summit? if there are then I would like to join this upcoming gathering.
My father just gave me his old Longines, its been dead for over 15 years.... I'm wondering if I could find someone to revive it.

siodee - Ok, I shall be hearing from you.

genec. - I am not too sure this shop at the summit accept your old longiness for repairs, for he mostly do rolexes. (confirmed with the owner, his shop opens on 31/8 - Wed)

And there is another shop at the same complex that does repairs on old omegas and clock works Maybe we should try him out. (Not too sure this particular shop open on raya day)

But if we meet up, I may guide you to another repair sifu who does repair on watches like yours. Again it up to him to accept this repair works.

as a side note, if first day of Raya falls on 31st, i would be in Klang (obligatory visit) in the morning but should be back before 2pm to catch you all.

Hello David,

I have an old Titoni watch which needs repairing.  Does the repair sifu repairs on other brands (not expensive brands) as well?
If he does, I will bring it along for the mini Gtg.
Title: Re: Any upcoming GTG for Q3???
Post by: siodee on August 19, 2011, 07:18:46 AM
He is also a Titoni lover, I guess he can check out if I am no mistaken

Do bring along your old Titoni and let the shop evaluate. To repair or not is his prerogative.

A word of caution, he may sublet his repairs to others (other than rollie)

rolex is the easiest to repair watch...
because it is common, gear and wheel is big, simple ( no complication ), steel is easy to polish ( not hard )
on top of that rolex is expensive so can charge more....

so which watchmaker so choosy (smart) @ DavidCheong?

titoni is using ETA movement... if he/she cant repair then the watchmaker either lousy or choosy (bcoz he cant charge mo)

a watchmaker who makan gaji will repair what ever u throw to them unless they can't do it or no parts available
but a businessman / the shop owner will reject if profit margin low

look at the 'everyday advertised in paper watchservice center' the shop keepers in branches normally know nothing bout watches. His job is receive n throw to those worked for them (freelance). That's y he won't quote u straight all the time. He will even charge u for quotation. Bcoz the shop need to pay for transporting the watch to watchmaker(3rd party)

pls, Im not close to Jacob n co big diamond ring owner, so no c4 here. I Jus curious y a watchmaker will reject a titoni watch power by eta movement?

So i guess
1. The business man who use to do big business, he dunno how to charge for servicing a titoni watch bcoz the watch is not expensive, jus service he can only charge rm150-250. But for him to make arrangement, call + despatch 2 ways... Not worth!

If it is a rolex watch, same arrangement, his freelance watchmaker will charge him the same as servicing an eta movement... But he can charge much higher!!!

That's my guess... Jus A guess... I can b very wrong...
If u hv the facts n want to correct me pls do so... Tats Mwf spirit, sharing the experience, knowledge, news....
@dc - pls share with us since u know the shop better

Post by: Watchnewby on August 22, 2011, 09:38:54 AM
Thanks siodee and david.

Per david's comment on the watch repairer's right to repair, I tend to agree with him.
Like what chrisyen mentioned on the business profitability or the choosy watch repairer, IMHO, the repairer is one smart fella. To be able to charge higher for repairing similar movement.
But, in this world, I believe it is a "seller-buyer" agreement that will see the transaction done. In saying so, I agreed with david that if the watch repairer agrees to repair & the owner is satisfied with the labour cost, then it is a "done-deal".  Otherwise the watch owner has to look elsewhere or other repairs joint.

If you know...Thong Kee, the national player from the SEA games. He is as tall as you and has his advantage. He is the sole distributor for Butterfly merchandise at pertama complex.

All this while, I was playing with my coach, nickname 'quai-sow' aka sifu Tham, but has to quit as the services are no longer economical to continue for a one-to-one student pact.

Nowadays playing for sake of sweating purposes

I can't play golf even I tried it twice.... I jus dun njoy it!!!

Hi Chris,

I was like you before, very active in the list of sports you mentioned (basketball, badminton, squash, jogging, 10K Runs, mountain climbing etc) till I came down with injury. Then I took up golf for its "slow & steady" pace, but spend lotsa time like 1/2 day minimum.
So now I play table tennis 2 or 3 times a week, basketball once a forthnight, mountain/hill climbing (or jungle trekking) once a month and bowling twice every quarter.
Not forgetting Golf during Ramadhan month and CNY period. (coz' its cheap during Ramadhan months and as for CNY, many relatives are back in KL, hence can play in 3 flights)

Aiya, why so fast into peace, I was thinking perhaps organize a paint ball game, where we have 2 teams with one lead by David and the other lead by Christ, then winner get a good treat dinner.  :Laughing_on_floor:

@David, ppl putting fire here... Lol

anyway, I hv proper way to release my anger, I play badminton twice a week
if u think u r gd in badminton, pls pm me... If u beat me, dinner on me!

Wow, the fire flame flow over to my side now...damn...badminton, can not la, long time not play liao, same problem as other members, foot angle problem....

If want challenge, then play with something fair, like Paint Ball, Go-Kart, Skate-board into the pool  :Laughing_on_floor: :Laughing_on_floor:

Sorry for the FFK guys. Was already in the ground floor stage area when I called David (so close yet so far) but my HM was pouting cause my son did not finish his lunch.

Decided to stay with them visiting toy shop. Next GTG will leave family at home  :HammerHead:

Voon...thanks for offering those magazines...such a pity, I did not take some of your mags (latest)home....

I think you should handle it and feel it first before u pull the trigger.
The watch is bigger and thicker than one might imagine.

thanks to all the guys who made this GTG a great one! hats off to David for putting a lot of work organising it.

that pre-owned place is great and the owner is well-versed in Rolex watches. sadly my Cantonese is really poor or else i would have picked up a lot more information.

here's the watch that David and I are seriously thinking over.. let's see who gets it eh? the blue Submariner is really calling to me though but i believe another forum member here has also seen it and is also considering it.

My Raya open house most probably on the 17th of Sep. Will post updates and details later.
Guys and gurls, with the UPSR just over for my son and our family trip to Gold Coast next week, regret to say that our Raya Open House may not materialise.... :'( :'(

Anyhow.. If we are going to do any GTG later, drinks(non-alcoholic) will be on me... :Cheers:
