which watch do you wear when you travel overseas

[newbie09]

I wear my explorer 2 to hk and china.

Yes for me it depends...to places where security is a threat I would wear my 16800 (which looks pretty worn). To the USA, i will wear my GMT2 as I need the dual time function. To Italy....what else...Panerai...haha!

I just saw a milgauss inspired 'zhap' brand in jakarta yesterday. I did not wear it cus need to overnight there. I saw an indonesian in the same lift with it. Initially i tot its really milgauss black face cus the oyster braclet, black face n the orange needle. But i didnt see the rolex wording or the small words saying 'suoerlative chrono etc'.

Tempted to ask him to let me take a photo but in the end didt want to offend him. Hahaha

Which watch I wear depends on the country I am travelling to. If the timezone is different from that of SG, I will wear my GMT2 and PAM321. But if the timezone is the same as SG, I will wear any watch from my collection. If travelling to third world countries, just wear my casio...haha

Cheers

Hi guys, do you think its safe to wear a Rolex (GMTllc) to Australia (Sydney Melbourne) ?
Its a free and easy trip for me, and I will be doing lots of public transport travelling.

Shouldn't be a problem as I wore my DSSD to Melbourne on a family trip about 2 years back and did not feel at all under threat. We were using their public transport most of the time.

Thanks guys, for your advices.
I just bought my first Rolex (GMTllc LN) today. Hao say lah!! I can now claim I am in this "club".

Now thinking to wear this (bracelet) or my Blancpain (sail strap)..
Im going in Jun (winter in Aust), so strap will be good.

Most of time is G-Shock cuz it's ACG tough, cheap & won't kena mob.
If the country is safe, i might consider my precious Rolex : D

[Erick]

a normal watch that we can afford to lose..............

[wombob78]

Either Seiko or Casio. I agree wit Erick.

[simeone]

I always wear my Seiko or my white Addidas watch overseas..
The horror stories that i heard from my friends's experience (unverify) that so and so got robbed in the railway station,
market places.

Like wise normally, during my overseas business trips, I also prefer wearing my Seiko (have a client ever look at my wrist and ask what watch and i said it is a Seiko and I need more business from him as support lol)

Depends, if I am off to a dive trip, I would wear my Breitling Cockpit with rubber strap. To another time zone, it will be my very old Ulysse Nardin GMT or my Longines Legend Diver. I once went HK & China for work & in a rush, wore an IWC BP; well nothing bad really happened. But I guess keeping a low profit when travelling is a good thing, especially in Europe nowadays.... most Asians are too rich to be bothered with you!

Casio G-Shock. I personally feel that unlike the bigger size Angmos... Asians small size more prone to kena robbed or bullied so better be careful than not.
