Hi, im not a sifu here haha but the least offer i saw before was RM 9k. I think the price with its condition you got there is quite reasonable. Why dont you nego to 8k? Its not wrong to give it a try ;). Btw, again i think its a good deal  :thumbsup:

Just out of curiosity...what kind of "traces" can you find on the bezel? I kinda thought that a ceramic bezel was scratch resistant. Please correct me if I am wrong. My ceramic bezel has been bashed to glory and not one trace of anything on it.

it is just a very very minute scratch line on the bezel...it i'm not wrong,scratch resistant doesn't meant scratch proof,it still can get scratches on it,correct me if i'm wrong.

I do believe ceramic will still get scratched, not as tough as diamond or sapphire, for this matter.
My watches have scars on their bezels

Ceramic bezel is scratch resistant, but not scratch proof. Any substance harder than the ceramic will scratch the ceramic surface, eg. diamond, silicon carbide..etc

If the seller is willing to settle for $8,000, I would be happy to pay that price for it. Good luck negotiating. And post some wrist shots after have procured it.

I'm no sifu.....far from it ...but if it's me wanting to spend on a RM8k watch...I'll be doing extensive research on watches which are of the same price market locally...as well as overseas (ebay, WUS etc.)...This is merely to instill some sort of "Feel Good" factor in ourselves after committing to a certain purchase....Again, this is just my way to eliminate any post buying cognitive dissonance.... Just my 2 cents as I believe you have done your required due diligence  :thumbsup:
