Icon3 Singapore Pre-owned market

Hello everyone,

I've been on the hunt for a 16710 Pepsi for a while. I find it unexpectedly difficult to come by in Greece and rather overpriced in the Continent.

I will be visiting Singapore next month so, being a totally different place, maybe my chances could be better.

I was wondering if anyone has had any
experience of the particular pre-owned market. I happened to purchase my GMT IIc there but I went the BNIB AD way, so no such interactions...

Any suggestions - insight - Intel would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks beforehand.

I started a similar thread a while back and here's some of the advice I got:

And here's one that fellow TRFer Tim (Busytimmy) and me stumbled across at Far East Plaza back in June last year. I really wish I'd bought it now, it was in absolute pristine condition too; in fact, we were both tempted.

HJ Watch at Far East Plaza is has a long standing reputation. I've purchased from them once. Prices are higher than most though.

ChuanWatch.com for me is amazing!! These pieces come and go rather quickly so you have to checkout the site in advance as stock is fast moving!!!

Thank you all for your valuable information, I do appreciate you taking the time to share it.
I now have some good leads to work with on my...Singapore quest for the Pepsi.

Precision watch has a few Pepsi in their stock according to their website. I've been meaning to go and visit to have a look but haven't had the chance to organise a trip to Singapore.
