Just got mine from bro reach10 today at noon. I got the destro piece. Nice fellow to deal with. After browsing and fidling, I succumbed to temptation and bought it. When I went back to office to compare my MM20, still no fight lah. No doubt what you pay is what you get. Small review of the mm:
Case: Diameter 47mm Destro (Lefty)
Glass: Mineral Crystal
Caseback: Display caseback with mineral crystal
Movement: Unitas 6497 (Swan neck) China? Swiss? Modified?
Lume: ?? Should be superluminova (Many grades)
Dial: Black Sandwich Dial
Hands: Hour,Minutes,Seconds (All are gold with lume)
Power reserve: 42hrs (normal)
Straps: Black croc leather
Pros:
1) Built quality of this piece, at this price is good.
2) Domed mineral crystal with good AR coating. Single sided (maybe).
3) Workmanship overall quality from naked eye is good.
4) Gold hands makes it look vintage (nice touch) .
5) Splashproof for daily wear.
6) Good leather strap
7) Simple box makes a perfect presentation gift.
8) Reasonably priced (S$350)
Cons:
1) Non-Sapphire crystal glass.
2) Not waterproof as in 1~3ATM at least (1 ATM/bar = 10m) for swimming.
3) Lume does not last long. Only hands can be seen bright. The rest, needs more time to recharge as compared to the hands.
4) Warranty only 3mths
What you pay is what you get. It's just that maybe my expectation is a bit too high. I'm still hunting for that piece which can fulfill my expectations at a justified price. Used to have a Pam104 but it is still overpriced IMO.
Anyone interested in the destro can contact me Jay@92720250. Warranty will still be honoured by bro reach10. Watch is still new and unworn. Price is S$350. I loose cab fare
Regards,
Jay

Wat ! U got the 47mm wif second hand?! Te latest batch?? Tot u jus bought te 47mm destro?
U r the one with the sec hand destro too. Same batch as me! I think only 2 pcs this time brought in by bro reach10. Urs with brown leather strap? He met u in Novena?
After viewing it, I just post it here if any bro wants it I'm ok. Nobody offer also, I'm ok. It actually look very nice too. Only the lume that disappoints me. Anyone knows reluming service...? There is in canada and US but very expensive... Not worth it.
I won't be able to make it for dinner/gathering. Schedule to travel to neighbouriing country.

The lume shots were taken after all have been exposed to normal fluorescent lamp (office) for about 15mins. As u can see from the pics.
The reason why MM20 is brighter and last longer, under the microscope, the super luminova used is a fine, smooth grade where else the destro has some texture(rough) and therefore cause it not to glow as good as it should be. Other than that, it is a good piece at a reasonable price.
All pics are taken using N95 8GB
Trying my photography skills. Any comments/remarks are greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Jay
