Thanks for the warm welcome....

Ok Ok... here they are.
 
Make/Model/Remarks

Timberland/No idea/Free. No wearing anymore.
Casio/Protrek PRG110T/Fav watch. No need to feel bad for rough use. Is meant for scratch, boom, bang.
Tissot/V8/Great attention grabbing watch. Cheap but looks damn expensive. But the leather strap is hopeless. Or was it my sweaty hand. Anyway, change twice already and now basically "retired" in the box.
Edox/No idea/Got is 50% off at a local shop. Too bling. Given it to my sis.
Raymond Weil/Tocatta/Result of impulse buying. This is what I want to get rid off.
Tag Heuer/2000/Been wearing it for years. Loaned to dad now.
Oris/TT3DayDate/My "train ride" watch. Bought when i started to take train to work. The rubber strap is perfect for my sweaty wrist.
Hamilton/X Wind/Took a huge risk buying this from eBay. Worry shitless about it getting lost in transport. Value for moolah. Cheapest swiss automatic chrono around I think as it is Valjoux 7750 based. I have upgraded it to steel bracelet. Damn heavy now. The orignal leather strap was used on the V8. Fit right in. 

Anyway, i cant seems to find the create new post link on the For Sale thread. Any ideas?

Thanks

You join the forum just to sell stuff?
Title: Re: new guy
Post by: armereth on March 08, 2010, 11:35:38 AM
Wah... sudah "mengamuk" nampaknya

Actually not only to sell but also to buy stuff!!!  :)

Well, actually I am into watch. I also joined Singapore Rolex Forum  and WatchTalkForum for some time already. Just trying to educate myself about watch. However, I seldom participate in discussion as I dont really have anything to add.

As for this forum, all discussion seems to be related to high end watches like Panerai, IWC, Rolex, Omega etc which I don't know much about to comment. Mentang-mentanglah "Pegang pun tak pernah." But then it is nice to see that there is such an active watch enthusiast community here.
 

Hope this is OK

Cheers
Arms

CK77,

Oh no not at all. Wah you are so free to reply so quickly, government servant kah???  Haha :Laughing_on_floor: Just joking. No offence to government servant. My father used to be one and he is always so free.

Anyway, can i suggest that this forum has some sort of a price listing for watches contributed by members? I always lurk around watch showroom and sometime really wanted to know for RMx budget, what can I get.   

Cheers
Arms

I have asked a shop in Pertama Complex for quotation. Hope to get a good discount.
