Maurice lacroix- the view?
Discussion
Im not sure of the shop name but it's in suntec city on raffles bvd, the first watch shop on the left as you go in that sells Rolex.
The ML is a square faced, black faced, black leather strap. Retails at $5400 and they said they would do it for $4000sgd. has open backing on the case and is very smart but quit modern- like a tag Monaco with substance.
I did look in another shop (sincere?) that had some unbelievable watches and they had a lovely Ebel but not sure if Ebel does it for me. That was $7700sgd and could discount to $4800 with very little haggling.

Just been out to keep looking and there are a couple of make specific shops, particularly the patek shop ($850,000 anyone) and AP to name 2. However had a look at Rolex and surprised how dull many rolex look. Overpriced comes to mind but maybe I'm uneducated...
At the moment the Maurice Lacroix looks lovely for the money.

They're a good brand but suffer a bit from discounting in the primary and consequently secondary market. They're moving a bit more upmarket these days and producing their own in-house movements.
In general I agree with the oft-repeated sentiment on this thread. If you like the watch, go for it. That's the only opinion that counts

Just wanted to say cheers to everyone for the responses and bought the Maurice Lacroix Prontos (?) rectangle, black face and leather strap with 3 chrono dials (second hand dial has silver surround.
Absolutely love it. Quality and design sits head and shoulders above anything else I tried on in the same price range. Box it came in is a bit cheap but hey it's just a box. Seems the build cost went on the watch!
Will post pics when back end of jan along with the Omega and Breitling I already own for comparison.
Also wanted to say thanks for Dominic H for his excellent communication and assistance in balancing where to buy. If I was to live in the uk would definitely use him
