Ladies & gentleman,
What do u guys think of marina militare watches? I work in singapore and marina militare is consider 'welcomed' here. I was wondering how's the acceptance of MM in malaysia?!
In my opinion, a homage watch with good style! Should be worth the dollar and cents!!

Cheers

What is a homage watch mean to u then?
1. Watch - just to tell time
2. Collection - u can't find/afford for real mm so u get homage one
3. Fashion /Accessories - mm watch match ur style
4. Business - to promote then sell n to make $
5. all the above

Cotsner · « **Reply #2 on:** April 13, 2011, 02:45:33 PM »

Yeah...nearly all of the above! Well, if really wanna make money through MM, then it's best to study the demand of it in M'sia. Afterall,it will be like RM380 to RM400...cheers!

MM = Asian movement = RM300 - RM400

MM = Authentic swiss movement = RM1400 - >RM2000

Where to find in Msia?

David_cheong · « **Reply #5 on:** April 15, 2011, 06:27:53 AM »

Alternatively, you can check out the Dievas @ rm <RM3k a pop.

I did check it out the other day at the launching (MK), Swiss 6497 movement with fine finishing, though.

So far there r No watch shop or any outlet selling the MM. I guess can only be found thru watch forum! Cheers that we have MWF!! A place with no boundaries or limit! Hehe

Getat is one of the cheapest but QC is a hit and miss.
My friends Getat just suddenly cant wind and stuck after 1-yr of only weekend wearing.

Don't think so

G.MAC · « **Reply #14 on:** May 18, 2011, 08:18:17 AM »

whether something is 'worth' is pretty subjective. The RXW is quite solidly made and it is a handsome homage to the iconic fiddy with a solid movement. If having not known much about other watches and looking at it alone, i can quite say rm7k is a bit on the high end but still a fair price. But with knowledge on watches, i can say that the price is waaaay over the premium range. So is it worth it to me? Not really now.

wslee · « **Reply #15 on:** May 18, 2011, 07:28:01 PM »

I personally think it is expensive too. But when i look closely at the watch,all the details were beautifully crafted

Cotsner · « **Reply #16 on:** May 19, 2011, 08:41:43 PM »

Wow!! So many good point of views already! Last two was busy and summore out station...felt left out / outdated liao!! Hah!
In my point of view... Those RWX is just not worth buying them! Because i stil feel that the marina militare watch is best to wear as a toy watch...or for sumthing casual! As long as the watch is clicking...i m sure i will spend RM400 without much hesitation instead of RM4000!!

David, ,

actually i am refering to the one in BV 2. I dunno if there any taker?

Are we talking about RXW or RWX? If it is the RXW and if the watch is the MM20 (original and not fake), it should go for about RM 4,500 to 5,000 condition dependent. If it is the new Poseidon range, it should be about RM3,000.

takashi78 · « **Reply #21 on:** May 20, 2011, 07:56:27 AM »

I thought there were the same?
Whats different with Poseidon?

The original RXW MM20. Suppose to be a more accurate as compared to the Panerai PAM00127.

The Poseidon collection (current). They have models that looks like the Panerai PAM00232 (1938) and PAM00249 (1936). Apologies, the current price for the watches are about RM1,500 (if you buy in Japan).
