Besides SKYWATCHES and CREATIONWATCHES...
I don't know any brudders here have ever encountered this site before...

Well... at least to me, another new site for me to take reference on the specs.

Looking at the price... could be some kind of more ex than skywatches and creationwatches.

Bodying is OK... they're supposed to be reputable, based out of Malaysia if I'm not mistaken. Only issue with them is that they tend to overstate the list pricing of all their watches, meaning the '60% discount' they are offering is reality nowhere near that.



Other sites to keep in mind are chronograph and 21jewels, both based in Singapore. Chronograph's a bit expensive for discontinued items, but otherwise ok, I believe. 21jewels is nice, and the guy who runs it is a friendly guy.

I assume that you had made purchase with them before?

Nope, never dealt with Bodying; what I know is basically hearsay. Take a look at WUS, I believe that people there have dealt though....

Quite interesting how they price their watches:

Re: Besides SKYWATCHES and CREATIONWATCHES...
I dunno, had the complete opposite experience; the B&M store was almost completely unaware of tr Internet pricing, and a bit hard to negotiate with even with that info...



Still, ended up buying the Mako and Monster from them, and they've performed as expected, so Skywatches is still in my good books. :)

OK.. a little update on Bodying.sg



Whacked the SCVS001 selling from bodying.sg. Weird ordering procedure, there's this security measure where they are supposed to place an automated voice call to your home phone number to provide a 4 digits to key in during the ordering process to confirm your phone number and address.



Never received the call, so anyhow hantam in 4 digits. Strike ah! Order went though. Got an automated email shortly confirming my order and instructions on how to contact customer service.



Almost a week has passed and no notification of shipment. Was about to email their customer support when I saw the important email in my inbox - No stock. Sian 1/2 already after one week of waiting, then tell me no stock. Instead, they offer a SARB035 for S$715 (for me to top up from my original $322 order). Didn't take up the offer and asked for a refund.



Probably legit, but not the best experience so far.

Re: Besides SKYWATCHES and CREATIONWATCHES...
Well... yea, bodying apparent;y has issues with keeping pages up to date with stock. A Mechanical Spirit @ $322 would've been a smoking hot deal though!! :o



Think some guys are selling used watches on swx / sg-roc, no? Perhaps looking at those, even if they are used (ping lexong, he may be able to help with a Sarb ;)).

Re: Besides SKYWATCHES and CREATIONWATCHES...
Thanks for all the info. But I guess better to get from Twinkle and K2 with all the references here. Is Skywatches also grey market?

Hi Buys, just to back track a bit. Does the watches sold by Skywatches.com.sg are Authentic? If real, is it better price to drop by their shop at peoples park or buy online? :?: Thanks for replying....
