Not necessarily has to be Jap watches or mechanical watches.



So far IMO, I felt Bulova Accutron & Victorinox Swiss Army(VSA) are pretty vfm watches, although they are quartz but hey, everyone needs at least 1 quartz in their collection :mrgreen:



SEL, solid bracelet, nice designs. Definitely vfm for the price, of cos, preowned pieces :mrgreen:

yeah... i'm not joking... I don't think anyone of you would like your rubber strap thick and stiff right? Soft is ok... but feels low quality machiam like the material is not lasting enuff...
