Spring Sprang Sprung 2025: Jam Packed With Watch Goodness!

A dizzying recollection of how fun Singapore’s largest independent/microbrand watch fair can be. When I first popped by Spring Sprang Sprung 2 years ago, it was held in a slightly hidden corner of Lavender at XM Studios. The venue seemed to be reflective of the event – niche and targeted at collectors who could appreciate the joys of indie timekeeping.

Watches for less than a Meal: The (Incredible?) Daiso “Mili” Watch

Just how affordable can a watch get? Turns out the answer is: very. This military styled field watch cost less than my last meal, but is it any good? The Chinese have a saying, “一寸光阴一寸金，寸金难买寸光阴“; loosely translated, it states that while gold and time are both valuable, you can never “buy” more time with gold. Such sayings are not exclusive, and I’m sure that every … Continue reading Watches for less than a Meal: The (Incredible?) Daiso “Mili” Watch
