My First Good Watch

[xitanium]

hi there

My everyday carry has been G-SHOCKS and SWATCHES.

I thought of getting myself a good watch for my 31th birthday.

Been looking at EXPLORER II(WHITE).

The problem is my budget is only SGD 4 -5 K. Is ROLEX still within my reach?
Or should I go for pre-owned?

TIA

With 4-5K, you can get a pre-owned Exp II. Check out this thread for more info --> http://www.sg-roc.com/showthread.php?t=133

Yeah 4-5k can get a preowned Exp II. I got mine for 4.7k

Sorry to hijack this thread, but what's the cost range of a DATE SUBMARINER (pre-owned)?

Depends on condition, age , and whether it's complete with accessories or not. Starts from 4.5K (more than 10yr old) for the 16610

I am also looking at the new ORIS ARTELIER SKELETON.

what do you think? way affordable than the EXP II.

What is the approx price for pre-owned 4-8 years Date Submariner? We looking at $5.5K?

Depends on condition and whether it comes with full accessories or not. Should be around there

Hi, this skeleton watch is nice? How much is the price? I prefer metal one like this.

If that is going to be a first good watch, I would suggest you go for Rolex (my own opinion). My first is a Submariner and I never regret having that as my first.

Hope you get ur dream watch. Merry X'mas.
