Some queries for watch purchases
Recent Queries
1. What is the difference between Authorized dealer watch and gray Dealer Watch?
Watch itself is same, both are genuine in full set.
Difference is what you buy at AD (Authorized Dealer) are able to accept your credit card which is more convenient.
Gray dealer watch are imported from overseas, usually you can get a bigger discount as they have no shop, minimum running cost and margin is lower, so your benefit is much higher if you buy from Gray dealer. There are many reliable gray dealers in Hong Kong.
2. New watch is usually more available to get from gray dealer, as gray dealer travel actively to search for those hot items.
3. if you buy gold watch, you tend to get higher discount buying from gray dealer. Those sport hot models are usually having very competitive price.
4. When you buy Rolex , AP in HK using card, you might be wiser to select your local currency rather than HK Dollar as may be lower as it does not need to lose by conversion of HK Dollar to US dollar. Voice out to the sales manager before your card is passed to him.
5. No one will sell Fake watch at AD, gray dealers as it is a serious offend to sell Fake watch in HK.
Those who used to sell in Sai Yeung Choi Street or temple street is different as they are known to sell only counterfeits.
6. Rolex will take care of watches you buy locally from AD or from gray dealer, or watches you buy from overseas, so long it is authentic Rolex.
7. It does not matter to me if the used Rolex is having no paper no box, so long there is a repair slip issued at Rolex Service Centre as if the watch is fake or authentic Franken watch, Rolex Service Centre will NOT service them.
8. I was borne in HK and I am a HKer, the reason why I carry a Philippine number as I used to work in Philippines.
I am a country manager for the Philippine office. that is Why!

When He Loved me.
"When he Loved Me"
When somebody loved me, everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together, lives within my heart
And when she was sad, I was there to dry her tears
And when she was happy, so was I, when she loved me.
Through the summer and the fall, we had each other, that was all
Just she and I together, like it was meant to be
And when she was lonely, I was there to comfort her
And I knew that she loved me.
So the years went by, I stayed the same
But she began to drift away, I was left alone
Still I waited for the day, when she’d say "I will always love you."
Lonely and forgotten, never thought she’d look my way,
And she smiled at me and held me, just like she used to do,
Like she loved me, when she loved me
When somebody loved me, everything was beautiful,
Every hour we spent together, lives within my heart
When she loved me.

When Richard Mille Meets Richard Mille
RM11-02
When we had a meeting with Omega Elite CEO, Asia Pacific
sales director and his personal body guard of a Muay Thai master...
and group of friends as the potential interested parties for the
Omega Elite Phone at Peninsular Lobby Coffee Shop, there was a parcel sent from
Richard Mille to our hotel via Ferrari, that is a Big plastic bag with
size of a sack of 50 kg cement!
When it was opened, we could see a big box which contained a
smaller box and the small box contained the RM-11!
That is a beautiful watch made by Richard Mille, it is heavy as it
is entire block of Rose gold case to house a few hundred parts inside. I love
the way they display the Date under a Rectangular box with slant red strip to catch your attention. The background is White and the data wheel is a black Date
mask on a transparent sapphire disk. Good design!
The owner of the watch had had a RM-11-02 with him, and I could see
him scrutinizing his new toy RM11 with smile.
He is of course using Omega Elite Phone…
He carried the new Watch to tour around Hong Kong…

A tale of two cities
Hong Kong and Singapore bear many similarities in economic structure, reliance on finance and trade, as well as size of territory and population.
Back in 1997, Hong Kong’s gross domestic product stood at
US$179 billion, almost two times that of Singapore, but in 2013, Singapore had boosted
the figure to US$295.7 billion, surpassing Hong Kong’s US$273.7 billion.
Hong Kong’s or China idea of HKSAR is based on the principle
of positive non-interventionism, which gives impetus to the creativity of
individuals and the private sector. Singapore is likely the opposite in this
regard.
Hong Kong officials and Citizens have to spend most of the
time to deal with the complexities in the SAR’s relationship with the Peking
government where Singapore is free from the issues of the “one country, two
systems” situation. I feel pathetic about HK when members of the pan democratic
parties members spend most of their time doing filibuster… nothing is constructive
to the development of HK economy.
As I say it may take 7 years to build a new airport but 10
years to decide build or not!?
Hong Kong has been lagging behind Singapore, and Shanghai
for economic achievement, or may be after another 10 years Hong Kong will definitely
be lagging behind Johor, Shantou or Batam!
How About Watch, Hong Kong and Singapore had a bigger Cult
difference on choice of Luxury watches.
Back to 80s Singapore and Hong Kong had similar taste in
watch. Nowadays we can say that Singapore has an advance understanding for what new watches are!
For most of the super Hi end watches, Singapore seems has a
better sale than Hong Kong.
These are what we can see…
Whiles a lot of HK people are still in favor of brands like
Patek, AP, VC, Panerai and Rolex...
Singapore has been falling in love with niche Watch market
supported by these colossal Richard Mille, Hublot..and Urwerk.
In Singapore is whoever people goes with a Lambor, 80% of
the people wear a RM.
Singapore may become the show off hub for those nearby
country rich boys, Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei?
Hong Kong, older and richer tends to go for Patek, younger
likes Panerai and the Rolex goes to the rest.

Will Rolex have a Pricing Adjustment in coming days?
On 1st of July, Rolex announced changing its 2
years Warranty to 5 years, I have mentioned this one week in advance.
Well, as my speculation, that Rolex might be introducing
marketing plan to promote more sales with more profit.
Don't forget the warranty will incur extra huge operation
cost to the whole set up of After Sales support of their watches sold worldwide.
So I speculate that Rolex will do something about their prices
on coming days likely on 1st of August, 2015.
HK Snob
PS, there is no price changes Today, lets wait for a while,
or my insider's news is not reliable at all, I will keep an eye on this.
