Mr. Yee Wah Hing
« on: November 01, 2011, 09:20:02 AM »
Dear Sirs,

It came in the early news this morning that the founder of one of the oldest watch shops in PJ carrying prestigious brands like the early ulysee nardin, breitling, omega, longines none other than Hing's watch once at Jaya Supermart. Had passed on. I have fond memories as I bought my first good watch back in the nineties a tissot pr 200 there and later followed by many more and my first omega seamaster, and breitling superocean and crosswind special.

And I am sure many of us here will come to know of him. Condolences to the Yee's.

You are right in the sense that Mr Yee Wah Hing, founder of Hing's Watch, is one of the oldest watch shops in PJ carrying prestigious brands.

RIP Mr Yee and condolences to the Yee's family.

Is it the same Hing at Jaya 33, cause I remembered seeing an old man sitting inside the shop together with wife (I guess) and son and daughter...

My condolence to his family RIP  :Praying:
