Opinion on Titoni Watches
Anyone own any Titoni watches, especially from their Airmaster and Spacestar series? Anygood? They use base ETA movements right?
Ed.YEO
Re: Opinion on Titoni Watches
Still ETA based.

Except for their MASTER series, which are mostly base off SOPROD A10. And these are mostly priced 2k++, depending on complications.

SPACESTAR?

Have la... ALL WATCHES @ BUGIS and CHINATOWN Pt., Mustafa hv ley... KwangGuan maybe not... all i can remember they hv the COSC MasterSeries only... SPACESTAR quite easy to recognize one, just look out for those modern type case design, with little edgy bend at the lug area, diamond(crystal?) studded dial on the hour indices, look very blinky type from far... 90% of the chance will be SPACESTAR liaoz.

On the current period Cosmo King...

The current period Cosmo King is worth some consideration as the designs are in some way off from being total spin off of the Date Just.



The bezels are not so evidently "sea shell" with sharp edges, softer abit.

The bracelets are also much sleeker and rounder.

From far, the current period ones still looks much like DJ, due to the contours of the casing. However when looked closer... it's different feel.





I'm still on the look out for the recent period obiang one with stones of "diamonds and rubies"(or crystals) around the bezel so as on the dial. Found one, but the price demands 3k++...

Re: Opinion on Titoni Watches
Ed! Wow. 3k plus for titoni is a bit if a stretch. With that amount, we can score a 90's Rollie DJ rather easily. I'll stick to my vintage titoni Cosmo at 150-200...
Ed.YEO
Re: Opinion on Titoni Watches
Ahhh... No. Don't get me wrong...

3k++ applies to the RG case with Ruby crystals one...

The current period 半金(aka dual toned) with MOP dial, "diamond" markers is priced below 2k. SS one even more cheaper.

There's a CK, dual tone, w/o any stones NOS for sale from a Ex-TITONI staff opened store @ the Bendemeer Market, priced below 1.2k, design pattern very much close to the DJ. Even with 6mths in-house warranty throw in, i still find it very ex. I would rather pay a little more to get new one with 2yrs TITONI warranty.



Back to your hunt... If i didn't recall wrongly, K2 might still hv one CK that's could be from the late 80s or 90s. Not dual tone though. Price wise... check with Goh better... cos i remember much higher than ur budget @ 200 limit.

Re: Opinion on Titoni Watches
Thanks for clarifying, Ed. I bought a CK from Mr. Goh once. Head only at $150. Serviced once with hacking-mod included. Went to Bronze Age and change it to black dial (originally cream) for 50 bucks. Total 200. Traded in for a Sandoz sub. Now I miss the CK way more! :) I'll ask Mr. Goh shortly for the ck. :)

Re: Opinion on Titoni Watches
I saw 2 NOS Titoni at a watch stall in Boon Keng Market.

A ladies diver, silver dial and black bezel, saw the price tag was $480.

A man's rectangular dress watch for $580.

FYI please whoever is interested.

Bought from him once... the kimkim one. After that only pop by to SSRR nia... no more buying from him oredi. Initially wanted to hoot the dual tone NOS Cosmo King classic from him back during june, but he die die want to jiak me @ 1100++... eventually i went ahead to hoot the new gen dual tone Cosmo with MOP dial and bling bling indices @ 500 more with 2yrs warranty.



Old fella just want to jiak gao gao from his fellow peers ba... i guess... Since those old dudes who wanted to hoot dual toned Cosmo classic for long will not haggle with him much one lah...

Just like that day when i was there, a "regular" was taking call from his son asking about SKX007/9/11... the old "Titoni man" claims he totally have no idea what the SKX looks like... :shock: :shock:
