  I'm looking for a watch, must be very solid and fashionable. It's for my Dad.. He buys everyone presents but himself, so I wanna buy him something nice.

  My budget is around $800-$900. Please provide the place where I can find it too!

  Thanks!

  Other than as a status symbol, why do people still wear watches when your handphone gives you all the information and more?

  People spend more time looking / playing with their phones than watches.

  You can try People's Park Complex shop , name if I am not wrong is International.     Bought watch there before.   Service is not bad.     Can be cheaper than elsewhere.

  function obselete is one thing... some watch can go underwater while I'm sure ur smartphone cant

   

  and beside, they can be used as an accessory

  deyyyy~~ TS states the budget liao lehx...

   

  U shld ask wat type of watch is he intending to get... Digital? mechnical? for wat purpose?

  if outdoor working in rough field = different type of watch...

  if indoor working sales = different type of watch...

   

  It's the same reason why women want different heels, bags, clothes, earrings, necklace, accessories ... ... ... etc etc...

  Just like a tie.

   

  There is simply no functionaility in wearing a long piece of cloth around your neck.

   

  Worse, it could get caught in the paper shredder and kill you.
