so far where got sell this brand ah?

[Throttle]

If you go back to my earlier post on this thread, I have mentioned that one of my rich friends from HongKong is the agent of Ball brand.

 

It's relatively new in the market.

 

On my first trip to HK this year, he offered to sell me one at HKD5000 which is a thrid of the market price.

 

I believe that the brand in carried by Sincere in Sijngaopire

[skydude]

so HKD5000 is how much in sg dollars. Asked one shop at Tampiness and was told above 2.5k for gmt and 1.8k for non-gmt. Very solid watch but too small for me. Prefer 45mm case like Panerai but price can beat Submariner/Seadweller.

[Throttle]

HKD5000 about S$1k

 

 

forget about the Panerai, it used to be $2000 - $3000 but suddenly became hot and the price shot up. Not worth buying in my opinion becos price is really too inflated.

 

I sell you my sub?

No lah me not that big guy. Just use to wear big watch like Poljot Aviator signal , Glycine Incusore, Citizen Nighthawk then my other watch seem small to me. My traser PLT auto at only 38mm and i still wear mah. Worst still i had a vintage Seiko 4205 diver which is the smallest i own. Others i own are about 41 to 43 mm.

 

Ball hydrocarbon is really solid esp the thick bracelet, H3 microtec and Eta 2893 movement. For 1K it is a steal. But at above 2.5K it is murder.

[skydude]

ORIS WILLIAMS F1 TEAM CHRONOGRAPH

 

Text & photos courtesy of Oris

 

The stainless steel case is black; the dial with carbon structure is black; the rubber strap with vertical tyre-tread pattern is black. The new Oris WilliamsF1 Team Chronograph is uncompromising. Tasteful. Stylish. And its automatic movement has as many special features as the Williams team has cars.

 

 

 

The stop functions for minute and hour are decentralized, while the second is centralized. The bezel serves as a tachometer. On both models the dial has a minute division. Day and date complete the display under the sapphire crystal. The red Oris rotor is clearly visible through the window of the skeleton case back and the watch is water-resistant to 50m.

 

 

 

Oris is the official watch partner of the WilliamsF1 team. These special watches mark this high-tech partnership. Full stop
