Big Time was called Seo Choon Watches last time.


"watchlooker"

Heard of xiao chun before K2..... so probably is the first one...... :?: :idea:






the name of xiao chun lives on lo....



original was lee, his son is in upper serangoon, while both his employees are the fathers to k2, bigtime and goh seow chun lo.



k2's bro use GOH, as its his own surname, while big time use Seo. Seow chun games seem to be a relative of bigtime who ventured into video games.....

phantom, interesting read there, the xiao chun. I wonder who the very first local watchmaker was ?


that wan have to track back i think even further than few generations ahead??



Watches and clockes were all mechanical items and cost much more to own back then, so watchmakers can survive on watch repair and svcing.....
