ATONG ANG Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 thanks for the reply padre, di ko sure if hamilton is an american brand, i guess so, yan yung brand ng watch nila sa men in black di ba? anyway, you know of hamilton's website? will try to look up the watch i like there 1st, para pag tumawag ako sa store/s, i can give them the code/serial number. good question ka with taking pictures of watches, tried it before with my cam phone, labo lumabas. want to post kasi some of my watches too.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>hamilton is american brand. they have a website. www.hamiltonwatch.com pictures: was told by an ebayer that the secret is in the lighting.

bogbog Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 nice collection! i haven't seen a Hamilton Chronometer before, albeit, Hamilton is better known of those tiny dress watches. Where did you get the Hamilton?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Thanks. I got it from the states. The old hamilton is different from the new hamilton. I think the new one just bought the name. Quote Link to comment
bogbog Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 welcome to the thread. nice collection! is the first one a modified seiko diver's? where did you have it modified (beadblasting, dial, hands)? wher did you get that trias????? have been searching for that brand ever since i found out about it. you could also teach all of us a thing or two about watch photography, great looking pics! :thumbsupsmiley:<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Thank you for the welcome Yes, the first one is a modified Seiko SKX173. Beadblasting of the case and pvd for the bezel is done by IWW. Dial and hands are from Bill Yao at MKII watches. Putting them all together was by Duarte at NEWW. The Trias i bought from Longislandwatch, they can ship directly to the Philippines. Photography? Someone said it right, it's all in the lighting. Point and shoot na sony lang ang gamit ko.

ATONG ANG Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 sir, san sa cubao ung murang watches and anu anong brand ang available?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>most watch stores that are in malls started in cubao and rizal avenue. lower rent + 0-cut from the malls operators + less employees = lower prices.better yet, there are some watch stores in rizal avenue and ongpin wherein the owners live just uptairs and tend to the shop themselves, leading to lower overhead.
