another diver.....


i find this rather pleasing....... with a stout and massive case and that chunk of a bezel, it gives the owner confidence to dive into the deep seas and oceans..... along with the watch of course...

note the creative manner in which the crown is protected ....... firstly at the 4 o'clock position and then also counter-sunk into the case...... although the date window is a little bit small, i think it is still highly legible even at the odd position of between 1 and 2 o'clock .....

to make a good dive watch better, it comes with a pair of beautiful hour and minute hands....... i very much like the shape and size of these hands.... well adorned with superluminova, the hour markers and hands make reading the time easy even at diving depths......

although very useful, the power reserve indicator looks kinda out-of-place....... UP and WIND dont exactly sound suitable and pretty on a dial...... let alone a watch of this quality.........

what are you waiting for...???

now that oil prices have retreated... why arent the oil companies doing the same to petrol prices.....??????

given their swift action to raise retail prices when oil/wholesale prices move up, it's not too much to ask for a consistent action to match reduced prices right....???

can the government do something against these BIG OIL COMPANIES...... ??????

this is too much..... really too much!!!

oh dear ... where is mas selamat kastari..????

well..... is he still in singapore? no one seems to know......

the police/army are looking for him high and low..... hours, days and weeks have gone by and well nothing, he seems to have disappeared into thin air....

so many ppl have been affected...... businesses suffering..... transport workers crying for help......

when will the authorities abandon the search operation......???

can we offer him a reward to come out..??? hehe.....

not a joke..???


i am surprised to read this.....

a "kind" person suggested the authorities implement a minimum of 12 strokes of the cane for dangerous driving.......

well i dun condone what this hit-and-run driver has done........ driving under suspension, driving under the influence of alcohol, failure to render assistance to the victim and so on...... but he is going to jail for not a insignificant period of time........ and going to jail is no joke......

does the punishment fit the crime? i do not know..... but i dun think caning him 12 times on the butt is of any help........ and where does it end? a life for a life?????

what do you think? ........ i leave it to you to think of a colourful adjective......

the classic


although i have never seen one, i have heard of it a zillion times........ haha maybe not to that extent but doxa is indeed very well known and popular (probably overseas)....

i cant think of any other word to describe the doxa sub..... only classic comes to mind..... the case is classic ..... and so is the bracelet..... it looks so much alike to any other doxa sub....

if u like classic..... u probably will like this......

it's also available with a yellow dial, orange dial and blue dial...... yours to choose

SHOCKKKKKssss

one cant just admire expensive watches........ very often there are interesting and yet affordable watches that i miss...... like CASIO G-SHOCK WATCHES...!!

this one is not bad..... it looks extremely rugged and complicated...... in fact i am overwhelmed by the number of functions available..... is there an altitude sensor..??? what about solar power..??? but then, who cares so long it looks pretty.......

on the other hand, this g-shock is downright simple and also has the retroooooo feel......... i find the 3 red characters to be very soothing......

more similarity.....


if you like the look of the blancpain fifty fathoms but not its price, why not consider the RGM....... looks pretty close to me..... haha...... especially the strap and bezel...... not identical of cos but quite similar.....

similar...???

unfortunately this gucci watch looks too similar to one seiko 5 watch...............not only the case shape, bracelet but also the bezel...........
