Trading as part of life

Since January this year, we've been trying to be consistent in trying to keep our fortnightly listings.

Firstly, this will help ease our cashflow a little so that we can reinvest our interests into new pieces that we covet. Secondly, for those of you in the know, we are moving to our new apartment which means renovations and appliances to purchase.

So, if you have anything specific that you are looking at, Omega or Tudor; let us know and we'll see if we can help you out.

Our listings for this week are here.

Here are some of the items:
Panerai watch pins


Panerai 44mm velcro strap



Tudor Prince Oysterdate Large Rose (love those vintage logos!)



another Seiko bullhead chronograph

(yes, we sold one previously and here's another and the final piece!)




a Seiko divers watch with box and *unsigned* papers



some military pieces such as Bulova, Hamilton Vietnam, O & W and West End









and the awesome looking Bucherer chronograph!


How's that for a photo rich post? (grin)

Listing is a lot of preparatory work

Yes, I do attest. In spite of working late, hubby is diligently writing out one or two watch descriptions every few nights.

We both kind of agreed that we would work on a fortnightly schedule and see how it goes. It's the listing, following up for payment and item shipping etc. Perhaps once we move to our own apartment, things would fall into place.

And yes, there are some new items on the site now -->
Go check out our listings.
Notice anything unusual?
It's the first lot where there is no Omegas at all.

Listing time is here again

We've been so overwhelmed by the frantic activities that listing took a back burner.
Until lately, the amateur photographer (*moi*) decides that it's time.

So yesterday noon, we spent 2 hours doing the photography, photo-transferring (our digital camera is 4 yr old, so no drag and drop), cropping, description typing and layout etc.

It's just one of those things that you block your time off to do. And this piece seems likely to do well (or so we hope). Anyone looking at replacing their first generation Omega divers 300 backcase and bezel?

Good luck! (to you, the seeker and us, the sellers)

Welcome 2005!

This new year welcoming is dampened by the tsunami crisis that has caught the world off guard. Perhaps becoz it has happened in Asia, it has brought closer to home the aftermath of the destructions and how lives will be changed forever.

Scary huh?

On the watch collecting sidenote, the new year has been a slow start. We are doing preparations and hopefully listing can resume by next week!
