      Dear Lord, that Minute Repeater is astonishing.  Too bad the cost is astonishing as well.

        Don't know about Hong Kong, but every time I pop over to a watch shop in Ginza, all Chinese.

          Rest assured, the client base at the luxury watch boutiques in Hong Kong is entirely mainland Chinese. I've mentioned in this thread before that these shops (and the gold/jewellery retailers) have taken a big hit in the wake of Xi Jinping's anti-graft campaign because the bulk of sales were for ''gifts'', rather than personal use!

                Not a watch, but this seemed like the closest place to post it. It's a Nixie tube clock being sold by MB & F.

                More details at the MAD Gallery. Want!

                  damn. now i really need a trip to hk. but for the many times i've been there, i've known places in mongkok that sells the high quality fakes that snowy mentioned. but i've never really come across any shop like what babyknight has posted..

                        I am definitely applying to the wrong companies! 😉

                        Looking forward to seeing the evo on this one.

                          so are we now en route to a "fading" watch comp…. enjoy it @Winchy (small hint, let the little one play with it and you will fill the masters request)

                            Sounds like a plan @rocket. We'll have to get @Megatron1505 to add it to the DWC. 😛

                            And don't pick a ceramic, non-scratch watch for it. 😉

                                      Customised my mates old Bape G-shock for him this morning.

                                      Removed the plastic straps and replaced with strap adaptors and time factors Nato strap.

                                      Removed the branded case and replaced with a plain matte black case and added bull bars.
