不是我不小心： "Accidental" Hoot

不是我不小心： "Accidental" Hoot
Has been talking and chatting with Bro Dragonboat02 for the longest time I can remember about the Sumo and the MM... Exchange a lot of pointers.. Experience (he has both)..feeling... Thoughts... How it should be and why it should be..



Under his tempting influence (evil man)... He quoted that BigTime has stocks and price is good. So after meeting him today at work.. Decided to pop by BigTime around 5:40pm... And "accidentally" hooted The Blue Sumo... Something I've been wanting to have. 真的很不小心。



Loved the blue color.. Love the weight.. Love the feeling of the watch hugging my wrist... Simply loved it























Oh btw, Bigtime lady boss seems to know Yeoman a lot....??

Thanks bro for your poison all these while.... tried the MM... really good piece. It can actually be used during self defense against a robber coz it is so flucking heavy.. But it is no doubt nice

To memory it was Approx $950.00 SGD , retail was $1164.00 SGD . Thong Sia are slightly higher priced , but you get international genuine Seiko warranty & obviously they have higher store overheads than a grey importer does .

Yes, and you don't even have to hunt too hard in Japan for a good deal. Just take a look at the websites of the major electronics stores in Japan. The price of a Sumo is much lower than any that you can find in Singapore.

Re: 不是我不小心： "Accidental" Hoot
Recently got the Blumo too and i thought it was a nice watch to wear and not get too worried about nicking it.



I bought the MM300 first but this Blumo caught me eye and i pulled the trigger on it too.....



Agree that it seems to in different colors with some different plays of the light.

So you accidentally left your payment/card on the counter while the person serving you accidentally put the sumo in your pocket.. then you realised when you got home that you accidentally purchased a watch.. :roll:



Must remember that as an excuse next time I have to explain a watch to my wife..

He accidentally left his card and they swiped it, then the card machine broke down. And they couldn't do a refund. So he had to take the watch! That's the crucial part of the excuse for the wife.

bcos its a JDM model



only Thong Sia and Big Time carries Prospex series



I believe Superchrono might have but unless you want to pay a super premium price then I'll prob recommend you to look at these 2 places, for BN set.



Or try forums. I had seen preowned orange sumos FS on international forum recently

Yes, sin can get. The big time selling S$788. As compare , buying in japan would save hundred plus. In japan sumo 46000yen, about $650

Unless you have friends going there.. If not that $100+ is hard to save. Nevertheless I went Taiwan last few days and went to see their shopping centre.. Also don't have sumo or mm which is a surprise to me coz I thought Taiwan is near to Japan.. They should had carried and probably even cheaper.... But really don't have... :cry:



Coz I was hoping to hoot a JDM seiko/ Citizen or Orient from there at a cheaper price but alas.... A empty trip it seems
