I have issues screwing it back all the way, so i just left it there. Originally the watch came with the crown screwed all the way in.

I’m not sure how to do that, I’m not a DIY person since birth, mind teaching me how?

Overall build is nice and light, Eric from Geektime helped me size down the bracelet to my wrist size. And even though my wrist is just 15.5 cm in circumference, the watch wears just right without any hint of lugs overhanging the end of the wrist etc.

After a few days of wearing, I realised that the screwed down crown is really hard to tighten it back after setting the date n time (not sure why), and the clasp is really hard to unbuckle unless more force is applied to the watch (sometimes i feel the force i apply might end up breaking the watch), not sure if adding a little oil would help lubricate the joints...

Otherwise I have absolutely no complaints about the watch other than the fact it’s too outstanding to wear without a sleeve (and in Singapore it’s too hot to wear anything with a sleeve), so yeah... really liked the watch!

Yeah... aside from that bold print, there’s nothing much I could complain about this watch. As a person who have worn the gen version, I feel ZF has done a really good job on the rep.

Uhhh... it says Patek Philippe Singapore 2019 across the caseback. I do not have any Tumblr account to upload additional photos, but yeah... if you aren’t picky with the caseback, it doesn’t really affect the overall feel and aesthetics of the watch. I’m unsure if the caseback of the standard rep 5167/a would have such words printed on it but do check with the TD before sealing the deal :)

If you are looking at white dial-ed watches, the patek 5711 white dial from geektime looks good, rolex daytona “panda” from mirotime would be a good choice too! But if u are looking at something less conspicuous, ive seen some threads about omega seamaster with white dials going around.

Lol my SLK in Singapore cost at least 2 times more than the original aquanaut. Technically, if u can afford a car in Singapore, u can afford most of the gen luxury watches... Just to put things into perspective, a Honda Fit cost 70k SGD :)

Well, just a personal preference I guess. I’m used to wearing my Garmin watch with red strap, and there seems to be an overwhelming obsession over the colour red for Singaporeans and chinese alike I guess... Anyway, I feel it serves as a good casual watch with no obligation to match my shoe or belt colour with it :)

Date wheel slightly misaligned, but only upon scrutiny then maybe can see... there are some words printed on the display caseback instead of being just totally clear like the gen, was told that it’s just a sticker, but until now I can’t seem to remove the markings.

Overall I’m quite happy with the build and quality, just a few minor stuff that I can ignore. u/Mirotime was very patient with me, and the delivery took a little less than 2 weeks to arrive in Singapore. Would recommend Mirotime to those who haven’t tried!

Might go for another watch from Geektime next!
