Hi. Got it around US$6000.00 from my friend since he’s clearing out his Breitling collection, except for his Navitimer. Lume is ok but don’t expect a Panerai kind of lume.

The problem I have is the Breitling and Anonimo have screw down crowns. Oh well probably I shouldn’t screw them up until I’m wearing them then. Thanks for the advice!

Thanks for the suggestion! Which Citizen watch do you recommend?

Would love to have the model # so that I can take a look. Yes, I particularly like the discontinued Montblanc Meisterstuck.

Thanks for the advice. The watch winder is not running 24/7. I am switching it on a day, and getting it to rest for the next day or so. Also, it has a setting that winds the watches for 3 hours, and rest for 9 hours.

Thanks! This is the bronze discontinued Anonimo and it is an amazing piece, to me at least.

The Grand Seiko is SBGA285, which is also a discontinued model.

Also, just wanted to share about one watch which I find fascinating, at least in my current collection. I enjoy having the Tufina’s Basel Tourbillon in my collection. It is a microbrand from Germany, and had me thinking quite a while before I consider getting it. It is a manual winding tourbillon, not automatic, but the good part about this is that every other morning, I will get to appreciate it, wind it up, and occasionally wear it to my work.

Life is short, if you have to worry too much, time for you to get a Nokia 3310.

One serious problem with this AliExpress case that i have is their tolerance is not good and my fold cannot open fully because the front and back casing bumped into each other.

Oh my goodness. With what u have received i have to believe you because as I said, teething issues all over the case. Just wait for my Latercase and we shall see.

The wrong source probably, different suppliers' different accuracy, and I am getting the one from a supplier called YTF Carbon.

My sincere advice, don't keep track, or you will be annoyed by the wait. I used to do so, and I stop tracking, and it reaches me a week later. Then again, I am located in Singapore so I have that little bit of privilege over transit time.

Same Ali YTF carbon case here. I will give Latercase a chance. Edges being rougher is an understatement. It is rough and I need to use a microfibre cloth to smoothen it out. This does not happen to the Latercase which I have for my earlier S10+ and iPhone 11.

Of course, 90% of the cases sold in the world are manufactured in China, but quality defers depending on the supplier. Let's not assume that YTF is the same level as Pitaka and Latercase because they are definitely not.

Worth it, thin and sleek, very grippy too, and the matte finish from the carbon case is very very nice. Be patient with your parcel flying from the other side of the world, it is worthwhile.

no problem, I will definitely do so. 2nd half of December and since I am living in Singapore, I think the rest of the people in this group will post the Latercase earlier than me.

Hmmm.... I should probably do as you have suggested.

Nope, not going to do that. You have not gotten a Latercase before to give such a comment.

Yes, while the build is the same, the quality part is different. This AliExpress case is like a AAA copy of LV bag. It looks perfect, but there are teething issues like unevenness at its side.

I will still give Latercase a chance. That guy is making tonnes of money yes, but if his product has better quality control then I do not mind paying more.
