Malaysia Watch Forum Affordable Watch Brand Survey
« on: January 04, 2011, 03:22:38 PM »
Hi guys,
There's been a request to have a separate survey to determine MWF members' favourite affordable watch brand.
Please help out by voting for your favourite watch brand which did not break your bank account last year.
Only one vote per member please.
The poll will run for only 7 days.

 :Cheers:

Nothing says bang for the buck better than Seiko.
For under rm500 you get a fully in house movt and everything. Even the oil is Seiko specific.

Cannot agree more. My vote goes to Seiko. I bought the most watches from Seiko in 2010.
Another bang for the buck, Orient is a close 2nd in my book.

I've added the following brands:

Sinn, Epos, Titoni, Tissot, Longines, Hamilton, Ingersoll, Victorinox and Mido.

There is also the option to change your vote in case you wish to vote for the newly added brands.
The limit of 1 vote per user remains unchanged.

i struggling to choose between ball n damasko

ball come up with very new invention.... the world time and the rotor lock.... and great design new watch model

while damasko improved alot on service, production and of course the launch of new manufacture movement...
besides that the new da46, super hard black pvd models, upgraded silicon models....

so my vote goes to damasko in the end for 2010....

I voted Seiko since to me the key word is affordable. My personal definition is the brand must have entry level models below 1k.
I am also a big fan of Ball but the entry level Ball whick is the Fireman definitely well above that.

I also like poljot and have among my collection 2 poljot based Aviators. But as far as I know poljot in itself no longer exists but there are a few brands with poljot based calibers (Aviator/Sthurmanskie/Dennisov,etc). There are some poljot NOS on ebay which is affordable (<1k) but most of those brands mentioned are more upscale...
