precisely..............who the heck wanna wear a watch with SAF or police logo on it ??!!

i rather they give me a cheapo Swatch..........

Or a trusty Casio G-Shock.

By the way, made in Japan G-Shock watches are an endangered species. Most of them are made in China, except some high end or 'limited edition' models. Best to verify if you're allergic to Tiong products. :wink:

it is not worth much in resale market because it is engraved.
Hamilton is worth more too.

I bought a Victorinox watch when I was in the US. It was not a good watch. The leather strap broke after 1 year. The finish started to wear off soon after I got it.

Better to get a Seiko. Mine lasted 25+ years & still going strong. I just need to replace the battery & replace the broken metal band. The metal band broke after 25 years of use.

You sold them your time, your youth, your life, now, you still paying time, in reservist; & you can be proud, to tell your grandkids, I HAVE DONE TIME. So, they gave you devices to measure those, nostalgic, orgastic time you serve in National Slavery!...ha ha ha

Those SAF cheapskates are insulting millions of NSmen who have given their blood, sweat and youth to the nation's defence by giving us a cheapo quartz watch made by a — knife manufacturer! My watch is now sitting in a drawer, having been rejected by a few people I tried to fob off to.

They should take a leaf out of the British MoD's book: every serviceman in the Royal Navy is gifted a Rolex submariner on a NATO strap, modified to MoD's specs:

I'd be very happy if the SAF could just gift us instead with this cheap but very rugged and functional automatic Seiko diver's watch, the SKX007:
