Hi guys,

It is kind of strange that when I just started into watches only about 2 weeks ago, I was totally into seiko. Then I started going through forums, shops and magazines.



Cut story short, I realized I like Omega, seamasters. Rolex, submariners and the wacky designs of Azimuth.



Anyone into this brand?

Is it worth collecting?



I m eyeing the roboto.

Re: Azimuth
haha, it's very subjective bro



you are now exploring your options as you mentioned you just started into watches. For my case, I was like you, started with Seikos & bought all kinds of watches(Swiss,Chinese, Russians etc) until I realised I love Seikos more than others. Of cos it will take a while for u to realise wats your direction is when you are more familiar with prices, movement type etc etc :)



Azimuth produces nice watches but if I'm throwing a few k on a watch, I would want to read time at a glance :lol: no doubt is a unique design

Re: Azimuth
I believe that chiu r aware that it is a local watch designers Christopher Long & Alvin Lye, Azimuth holds a unique place in the watchmaking world as the only Singaporean luxury watch brand to create Swiss-made highend complication watches... 8-)



IMO that most of de watch ish mounted wit Eta movement... ;) back in 09, i was eyein on de Regulateur Retrograde Minutes n near poke out de $$$ out of moi pocket bt tink here n there it stil dun sing 2 me so nvr hoot... :mrgreen:

Yes the the roboto is nice. I like it too but did not hoot. Hoot a pilot watch instead. Do note that every year they will have some sort of sale and you can get almost 50% off retail.

Better price for the watch or for the shipping?



I chose the FEDEX and the rates was reflected when I chose international priority.



The buyer actually suggested CONUS which is cheaper, but I m more comfortable with FEDEX.
