              can consider this : the MIH watch

              http://www.mih-watch.ch/index.php?langId=2
              www.mih-watch.ch

              a project watch by MIH, a watch museum. certain % of the 5000 swiss franc will be donated to the museum

              but no ADs in asia, have to buy direct from switzerland

                  Low profile indeed. Retailed by Kronometry in Suntec (is it still around?) I think. One of the founders of AHCI (Academie Horlogere Des Createurs Independants), a association that promotes the work of independent watchmakers. http://www.ahci.ch/home.php

                  You can try Nomos and Bremont too.

                            thanks.
                            BTW, think you need to clarify "low profile". What's low profile to you may not be so to others. Eg, I know of Stowa and among my peers, its "high profile" as there's an awareness.

                            Thus, are you talking about never heard of brand or lesser known ones. Or are you asking for the popularity of a brand/watch? Cos likewise, the Portofino range (except the 5251 and the recent New Vintage) is considered low profile among IWC collectors but the brand speaks huge volume of its following.

                            And at what price points are you asking for too? Some "low profile" brands/models do not come at a cheap asking price, like the Pierre Kunz Infinity Loop http://www.sg-roc.com/showthread.php?t=13258 Nooch posted. Whereas Nomos is relatively affordable.

                            There are a few others that you may not heard of too, like BLU, Frank Vila, Romaine Jerome, Habring, Dubey & Schaldenbrand or even a Thai brand, Plazeon (using Seagull movements). All are retailed here now except the Plazeon.

                            I mentioned Bremont in a earlier reply. This brand is retailed in Malaysia (in KL and Penang by Swiss Watch Gallery). IMHO, basically pure marketing to jump onto the bandwagon, esp the LEs, but the EP120 has a interesting rotor shaped to the propellers of the Spitfire. Any WW2 aviation buff may like this http://www.bremont.com/manuals/Pilot...fire_EP120.pdf

                            Sorry for the rant and OT
