I passed by a watch shop today and had a look at the Seiko watches.
Those "lao ah pek" style low-end Seiko 5 automatic watches are selling for over $200+ and some even over $350+.
Is the pricing normal ? When I bought one of such models 6 years ago, the price not even $150...
Pre covid Seiko already position themself in upmarket segment.
Probably can still find seiko 5 in older shops. Eg. Prestige time at bras basah. I bought a skx007 frok k2 for $200 in 2016
Seiko no longer bang for buck brand. Citizen and orient still ok thou citizen is also expanding their higher end series
For $1k range, best brand for now is Christopher ward
i guess should buy casio or timex then
@peaceheart super shocked when i saw the prices...
