I assume you mean the B dial 42mm pilot, there are a few variant so i suggest you post the pic for us to refer.

Some like it, some deemed it too busy, nice movement, nice price, i myself have a Stowa Flieger B dial so im ok with the style but i am not a fan of date on the dial.

If i am to buy a Hamilton Khaki, i will get the "Hamilton Khaki Pilot Pioneer" in Black instead. Not pure panda but close.

Ya that is the model i have in mind when you said Hamilton Khaki Pilot, out of the 2, Black is more versatile in my opinion.

Can find hamilton in Malaysia, can go for a hands on first.

Chrono24 depends on the seller.

Looks like we have a winner...hahaha

hidden830726 · « **Reply #36 on:** February 15, 2016, 06:32:27 PM »

haha, Dave have to decide. Interstellar is with bracelet.

But Dave, btw, if you gonna buy, as old WUS saying, buy the bracelet version, you will always have the choice for third party leather strap.

This is very true cause if you decide to wear bracelet later, it'll be very costly and aftermarkets aren't as nice.

DaveChan · « **Reply #38 on:** February 16, 2016, 08:13:35 AM »

Oh, is it stainless steel better than leather strap after markets? But I'm still prefer on leather strap, haha.. Because never try a leather strap watch before..

Actually I meant that the bracelet bought from OEM is going to be very expensive and you might not want the aftermarket bracelet that doesn't look like the original design.

Perhaps it's better that you get the bracelet too since you never tried leather before. You might not like leather but you'll be stuck with it.

What me and dertwert meant is, you can easily get better quality leather strap after market, but its expensive and difficult to get suitable bracelet after market. So if the price difference is not alot and within budget (im not sure what is the price diff between leather and bracelet) then better to buy the bracelet version even if you aim to wear it on leather.

Sorry guys, I got one more question. If comparing Hamilton with tissot, which one will be better? Actually I'm from Ipoh, and I saw a lot of tissot outlet there, but for Hamilton, the nearest outlet only in Penang or KL.

dertwert · « **Reply #43 on:** February 16, 2016, 07:42:45 PM »

Dave,
My very personal opinion is that I would prefer Hamilton. Reason being it has domed crystal, on one side, at least, for the model you've got your eyes on & not that easy to find a Tissot with domed crystal, from what I've seen at boutiques anyway.
Plus Hamilton isn't as common as Tissot

Most importantly, choose the design that you like the most & pleases your eye. Remember that you'll be wearing your watch longer than you'll be sitting in your car, unless you drive for a living.

hidden830726 · « **Reply #44 on:** February 16, 2016, 08:14:13 PM »

Same as above, brand wise, between the 2, I will prefer Hamilton, at least Hamilton is more rare compare than a tissot, tissot is quite commonly seen and petaling street also sell them. At least Hamilton have Interstellar

But ya, buy what you like within your budget. There's plenty more brand that within your budget that offer equivalent or better value, but those mostly have to buy from online and oversea.

Have fun looking around. Reading and searching for the next one is part of the fun too.

DaveChan · « **Reply #45 on:** February 17, 2016, 03:44:12 PM »

Haha, thank you guys.. I think I know which should I go.. But also need time to go KL and check the price..

How about some reputable "Big" Micro Brand watches? Helson, Benarus, Halios, Armida

Between Hamilton and Toss it I would go for Hamilton. For RM2k to RM3k you can get very good Seiko.

Totally agreed

DaveChan · « **Reply #49 on:** February 22, 2016, 08:49:57 PM »

Ya, I understand. But want to try something new. Because seiko is too common for me, 80% of my friend is wearing that.
