Wait... MING is made in swiss, designed in Kuala Lumpur, and named after a Chinese guy?

They're a bit misleading, I think only the movement is made in Switzerland, they're definitely assembled in Malaysia because my watch shipped from Malaysia when it came to me.

Both times I made payments on it, the fraud department for my CC went wild because I was trying to pay in CHF to a company in Malaysia.

Do you know if/how you service these micro brand watches? Or are they using ETA?

So many of them are just using off the shelf movements... Ming's are bespoke to some degree, I know for them they recommend service every 5-7'ish years and it appears they have something in-house or at least can advise you of a partnered business to send it to.

Not that it matters to me anymore lol

your asian lust even extends to watches. 69stylez is truly one of a kind.

If we both spoke Japanese id take you to soapland for your birthday.
Consolation prize is BoBo massage in richmond, or swanlake but i dont think you'll get anything good besides a bad case of crabs.

Have to respect that they don't worry about casing it in Switzerland to get the "Swiss Made" label, but still charge the price they would if they did LUL

You forgot the child labour! :accepted:

What's the most endangered animal I can turn into a strap?

Unicorn.

Or a reasonably priced Spektrum Golf R strap?

Try to get human leather strap. Pretty sure you can Jeffery
Dahmer that shit

Not endangered (I think?) but I've seen elephant skin straps which I found appalling.

Stingray actually looks pretty cool

^woah... thats pretty excellent.

looks like a fish skin.. or is that elephant?

That's Ray.

Poor Raymond, why did you skin him and make him into a strap

Which JLC did you get at the HK airport btw?

Classic 40mm?

The reverso is one of my fav.

There's a perpetual calendar thread on reddit worth checking out on this leap year day. Lots of nice pics of nice watches in there

9k cad, including an extra free strap

i still havent gotten the back engraved yet. arrrghhh, i keep forgetting to bring it downtown

I cant tell how big that is. Looks pretty large?

classic 40mm reverso. im a big fat guy so it doesnt look the best on me. Kinda like tying a string around a balloon.

Spent some time on there just clicking through all the pics, beautiful watches out in the wild!!

Fuck tho some guys how do they even see their watches through their arm hair jungle :badpokerface:

Buy me the smaller one next time you're in HK ok.

Redditors are either super hairy rich guys, or kids with extremely narrow wrists. It's weird

Rolex does the same volume as "entry luxury" brands like Longines but makes $10B for it. Only Tissot and Swatch make more units LUL

Yet they still convince people that there's a shortage so they have to charge extra and make customers buy a bunch of stuff first

RM #6 in revenue, sold fewer than 6000 watches

Lots of people buy Gucci watches huh

I love my weekender. Honestly you can’t go wrong with a quartz 30 dollar weekender and a metal strap
