Guess what, can you believe the price drop until RM6k++ from RM3xk  :o, but I never heard of this brand, that is why quite curious and wonder why the resale value so bad  ;D

Lanatir, seem like you have some nice shot there, is it the real diamond in the 2nd pict???

Siodee and myself was at the shop. The shop owner told us the brilliants are diamonds

And the movement is ETA 7750. A good watch with very nice / solid build up, IMHO.

Just to add, this is a limited edition model (500 units). According to the magazine, it is designed in Italy but manufactured by the Swiss.

I understand the brand, Buti, is rather popular in Japan.

Just another boutique brand i guess.
Haha that watch looks familiar Siodee, now i know where you and DC hang out during the weekend hehe.
The 7750 base looks really rough finish and even the case has a few sharp and rough edges that SHOULD be polished out.
