hobby Do You Have The Time?

[8387]

i use my rolex GMT master II as a daily wearer. it is elegant yet rugged and tough and wont be out of place in shorts, jeans or a suit. Once on a business trip in bangkok, as we were going out at night, my customer noticed i had changed into my timex (something i used to do for security). he commented: in bangkok there are so many fake rolexes, they don't bother robbing you if you were a rolex - they just might waste their time. so, whatever it i am wearing on a trip, i don't change over.

Always wear a good watch when travelling.

remember munch's "the scream"? well here's the citizen eco-Scream that mimics that face (and the urban legend ghostly character)...

that's just too bad that there isn't that wide a selection of seiko's in your part of the world. your best bet would really be the internet at sites like 21jewels.com or the poor man's watch corner.

 

if you are wary of ebay, you can still get it second hand from reputabe sellers from the sales forums of the Seiko Citizen Watch Forum, Oriental Watch Forum, or the Poor Man's Watch Forum.

 

as a final option, you could try asking a relative or friend to get one here for you and just ship it afterwards.

no worry uilrja...just queried the forum asking for directions in canada where them monsters can be found

 

will post their results here for you...sit tight!

 

or you can buy mine... but heck, it's like parting with a brand new toyota prius, which in this part of the world, is as rare as a Yellow Monster!

naku, if you were monitoring our seiko thread, you'll see that the monster has risen from the grave, and its almost like looking for a vintage piece, which i guess is even easier to find...there's no monster in washington and watch center at ali mall, the same with jp emporium and 3 other stores in farmer's...hinakot ata kagabi

 

there's a BM in timeline pero reserved na daw, and selling for php 7.3k (mine i got for much, much less than that!)

 

whoever is doing this to the monsters is crazy!!! ahahahaha

do you think may monster pa sa january sa mga shops?? jaunary pa uwi ko..hehehe

[koopahl]

meron yan kasi come december, seiko japan will be bringing out its hoard of monsters...i hear they might up their LEs for the mass market particularly the blue monster, but that's just rumor (i mean the LE part)

 

even when cubao has no monsters, im sure rizal, avenida and binondo will still have some of them tucked away nicely so us WIS guys will have to cling on something just to have them...
