Good luck ... pigs may fly .. blue moon .. till the cows come home . They are not known for their generosity . You could get a catalogue with price list out of them , but not much more .

You usually get a pouch if you're already wearing a watch

Good tip! I'll make sure I'm always wearing another!
I don't need a pouch, of course...but if it's free...gimme, gimme, gimme!

I tried on buying and got zip zero, attitude was that I was lucky that they had a the watch in to sell me, I have bought a couple since then and get treated a little better now, but don't hold your breath!

Even with my S$2200 repair (cost in excess of the actual value) with Singapore's RSC, i wasnt even given anything other than the standard leather pouch.
