Title: Is TITAN Automatic Watches worth buying?
Post by: Ho on October 18, 2009, 11:38:39 PM: Hi All,

Found this forum when i look for infomation about watches.
I wanted to buy an automatic watch with a thin budget,
recently i came across a brand from india name TITAN,
thier automatic watches are cheap compare to swiss made watches,
anybody is wearing one? check out the website below,

http://www.titanworld.com/automatic/index.html

1st watch in the catalog ask for RM1000 after discount,
6th watch ask for RM532. ( time square in KL )

Is it worth buying? i need advice.
thanks for your opinions.

Regards,
Ho

From the picture it look good ;) But really not too sure about its quality... Have you try on the real piece before? If it fit well on your wrist and it is not too expensive, i guess it's worth venture into this new brand :thumbsup:

Of course, like Terrence suggested, if you wanted a reliable watch within budget (which proven and long exist in the market), SEIKO/Citizen will be another recommended for your consideration ;)

Cheers!
Scott

scott and yee are right, at ur budget you actually can try to consider seiko for their automatic, however citizen are famous with their eco drive (it means solar powered). their price range is very compatitive.

Watch selection is very personal...(i might like the design but not u), therefore i would recommend you to choose the watch that fitted to your outfit and wrist and that's the one..

hope you enjoy the process of choosing watch...

I would rather get that.

Post by: Ho on October 19, 2009, 07:01:32 PM: Thank you for all the opinions, i will reconsider.
i had 2 old seiko watches, my grandpa and uncle gave to me,
1 battery and 1 automatic. but both are not working, need to repair.

Post by: kwlee on October 19, 2009, 07:32:24 PM: Like all the other members above. If I have 1K budget for a new automatic watch. I'll go for the Seiko 5 or Orient automatic.
