What would you buy with RM500?

[Kwill]

Although I didn't buy another Orient...I can't agree more...This is such a classic and bang for buck. I was wearing this at a wedding dinner last week with a suit and a tie and someone wearing a SUB C LV asked me...hey, that is a nice watch, is it expensive?

Orient Bambino.

Beautiful mechanical, about rm450.(my first mechanical watch...loved it so much..awhile later i bought another Orient)

bro,

i have the same convo all the time...everytime someone tries to guess the value of the bambino when im wearing it, its normally in the 1k-3k range, no one believes its Rm450. Once you buy a nice strap for it, it looks even more expensive

I shall poison you with what i upgraded the bambino for.(luminous, sapphire crystal, power reserve gauge...and still under rm1k)

hi, I am a new member here planning to buy my first mechanical watch. You totally sold me on the Curator, poison is super effective. Any idea where I can get one with a good deal?

These are available at all Seiko authorised dealers, retailing ard 6oo+

[Cocas]

I think Seiko, Citizen, Casio are good choices!

[Jedirat]

Without second thought, Seiko 5..

[Sterimar]

I bought a black Seiko Sea Urchin (SNZF17K1)  for around RM500 a few weeks ago. The Pepsi version (SNZF15K1) is probably a bit cheaper. I like the SNZF11K1 with white dial as well but it seems to be sold out everywhere

IMHO, personally if I had RM500 to spend, i would go for a Seiko 5 or Seiko 5 Sports which can be had for approx RM 460+ after discount.

The quality of the components and finishing in Seiko is way better than that I have seen on the Sistem51. With all due respect, the Sistem51 movement looks like a china made movement...just try looking through the see through caseback.

[kfkwan]

Go for Orient Bambino. Or wait till September. Get the new watch sistem51 in steel casing. Looking forward for that.

[jiaren]

Orient is value for money. Go for Japan domestic model for value added.

Problem with the system is that it's a sealed system. Try are proud to mentioned that the whole movement has just 51 components and if ever there's a problem to just chuck it away and get a new movement. Although there are merits to the design philosophy, throwing away the whole movement just because a spring needs replacing is rather wasteful.

Sorry to quote an old post, but yea i own one.

ok lah so far so good. but since i have a few watches to rotate around, i had to re-adjust and do some flinging to get the watch started every time i when it comes to this one's turn.

[Hafisjasni]

Seiko 5 is a must have
