I was invited once again to the Seiko showroom at Thong Sia Singapore to attend the prize presentation of the “I Love Seiko” video contest. The event took place on 12th Dec 2009 and the winner of the contest is our very own Badrun Nafis aka Badern. His video was selected by the judges at Seiko Japan to be the winner of the contest.

A small crowd turned up at the showroom and among them were Badern’s family including his wife, kids and in-laws. WIS friends present were Jamban, RaymondWhale and myself. Shoppers at the showroom also stopped by to have a look. There were some ‘lurker’ among them I believe.

The event started off with a roundup of the “I Love Seiko” contest by Glenn Koh of Ogilvy Public Relations.

After Glenn’s introduction, the Assistant General Manager of Thong Sia Singapore, Mr. Wilfred Koh presented the prize to Badern.

Badern won for himself a Seiko Ananta automatic chronograph watch powered by the 8R28 movement. (Model# SRQ005)

After the prize presentation, everyone mingled around at the showroom to take pictures and talk about watches.  Here are some picture of the Ananta thai I took.

Jamban’s Landmonster. First time I saw this US market model.

I took the opportunity to look at the watches in the showroom. They now have the 1000m Tuna (SBDX011) and the 300m MM (SBDX001) on display.

Another pair of watches that caught my attention were the yellow dialed Seiko Caesar’s.
