Pope Francis’ Historic Visit to S’pore Comes to a Close

Arriving from Timor-Leste, Pope Francis marked the final leg of his 12-day Asia-Pacific tour with a visit to Singapore. At 87, the Pope continues to defy concerns about his health as he travels from the remote jungles of Papua New Guinea to Jakarta’s grand mosque. Despite his reliance on a wheelchair, walking sticks, and aides, he has maintained an impressive pace as he energized crowds with impromptu call-and-response moments and braving the tropical heat for hours at a time.

Mr. Edwin Tong, Minister for Culture, Community, and Youth, welcomed the Pope and his entourage upon landing. He was presented with flowers by local schoolchildren in a warm reception. Pope Francis is only the second pope to set foot in the Lion City, following a brief five-hour layover by Pope John Paul II in 1986.

PAPAL MASS AT THE NATIONAL STADIUM

The highlight of Pope Francis’ three-day visit to Singapore (from September 11-13, 2024) was an afternoon Mass at the 55,500-seater National Stadium on September 12, held in celebration of the Feast of the Most Holy Name of Mary. Attendance at this historic event was determined through a balloting system via myCatholicSG accounts, with results announced last August 19, 2024.

Just a brief history: Singapore’s oldest surviving Catholic church, the Cathedral of the Good Shepherd, was built between 1843 and 1847. Moreover, there are approximately 395,000 Catholics in the country according to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Singapore. Pope Francis sees Singapore as a strategic platform to reach not only the region but also the world, highlighting its significance in his global mission.

KEY ADDRESS AT NUS

During his address to Singapore’s authorities, civil society representatives, and members of the diplomatic corps at the National University of Singapore (NUS), the Pope commended the country’s transformation from humble beginnings. He praised its “unwavering commitment” to initiatives that have fueled its rapid development, acknowledging that this success was the result of the people’s careful planning and rational decision-making.

Pope Francis paid tribute to Singapore’s first Prime Minister, Lee Kuan Yew, whose leadership laid the groundwork for the nation’s growth and modernization. He also stressed that Singapore’s achievements extend beyond economic progress, highlighting its dedication to social justice, care for the poor, and the protection of migrant workers. “These migrants contribute greatly to society and should be guaranteed a fair wage,” he added.

A recurring theme in the Pope’s message was the responsible use of technology. He urged Singaporeans to harness technological advancements to “promote understanding and solidarity,” warning against the dangers of isolating individuals in a “false and intangible reality.”

The Pope also praised Singapore’s harmonious coexistence of various ethnicities, cultures, and religions, recognizing it as a model for peaceful multicultural living. The Pope has long been advocating for environmental awareness and sustainable choices. Thus, he thanked Singapore for its commitment to environmental sustainability, expressing his hope that the nation’s future efforts would continue to reflect a spirit of inclusiveness.

A PRAYER FOR SINGAPORE

Pope Francis took time to pray for Singapore’s leaders, asking that God guide them in responding to the needs of their people. He expressed his hope that the country would continue its mission of inclusivity and harmony, for the betterment of all.

Affordable Pre-Owned Watches in Singapore: A Smart Buy for Watch Enthusiasts

There are many compelling reasons to consider purchasing a pre-owned watch, particularly in Singapore, where the market is competitive and well-regulated. One of the most obvious benefits is affordability. Luxury watches can come with a hefty price tag when purchased brand new. However, by choosing a pre-owned watch, buyers can access these coveted brands at a fraction of the cost, often saving thousands of dollars.

Another key advantage of buying affordable pre owned watches in Singapore is the opportunity to own discontinued or limited-edition models. Luxury brands frequently release special editions or update their collections, retiring older models. For watch enthusiasts, a pre-owned market is often the only place where such rare timepieces can be found. This exclusivity adds a touch of uniqueness to one’s collection and offers the potential for investment, as certain models appreciate over time due to their rarity.

Additionally, pre-owned watches undergo significant depreciation in their first few years, meaning that buyers can avoid this initial loss in value. For many, purchasing a pre-owned watch represents a more financially sound investment, as these watches tend to retain their value better than brand-new ones.

Trusted Sellers and Marketplaces in Singapore

Singapore’s reputation as a global luxury watch hub ensures buyers have access to a trusted network of reputable sellers and marketplaces for pre-owned watches. Whether shopping at brick-and-mortar stores or online platforms, it’s essential to purchase from accredited dealers who guarantee authenticity. Trusted sellers often provide certifications and warranties, which help protect the buyer from counterfeit watches or faulty timepieces.

For those seeking more flexibility or variety, online marketplaces offer platforms where buyers can browse a vast array of pre-owned watches. These platforms typically feature watches from sellers around the world, giving buyers access to a larger inventory and the opportunity to find a great deal. They often come with secure payment options, buyer protection programs, and return policies, providing peace of mind during the transaction process.

Popular Affordable Pre-Owned Brands

When it comes to affordable pre-owned watches, several luxury brands stand out for their enduring value, reliability, and craftsmanship. One of the most popular brands is Rolex, often considered the gold standard in the world of watches. Pre-owned Rolex models, particularly from the Datejust, Submariner, or Explorer collections, are highly sought after and maintain their value remarkably well. Although Rolex watches can be expensive when new, the pre-owned market offers numerous models at more accessible price points, making it possible to own a piece of horological history without a sky-high budget.

Another brand to consider is Omega, known for its precision and design, particularly the iconic Speedmaster and Seamaster collections. Omega watches are popular among watch enthusiasts and collectors alike, offering Swiss craftsmanship with a legacy of reliability. In Singapore’s pre-owned market, Omega timepieces can often be found at affordable prices, providing exceptional value for their quality.

TAG Heuer, with its rich history in motorsport and innovative watchmaking, is another brand that remains accessible in the pre-owned market. Its sporty yet sophisticated designs, such as the Carrera or Monaco collections, are often available at competitive prices in the pre-owned segment, making it a great option for those seeking a luxury watch without breaking the bank.

For buyers looking for something distinct, Tudor—the sister brand of Rolex—offers high-quality timepieces at more modest prices. Pre-owned Tudor watches, such as the Black Bay and Pelagos models, have garnered a strong following for their durability and design, making them an excellent option for those seeking an affordable luxury watch with a unique flair.

How to Ensure a Good Deal

While the pre-owned market offers significant savings, it is crucial to approach it with a discerning eye. One of the most important considerations is the condition of the watch. Watches that are well-maintained, serviced regularly, and come with their original box and papers tend to hold their value better than those without. Buyers should ask for a detailed condition report, ideally with photos of the watch from multiple angles, to ensure that it is in good working order and free of significant damage or wear.

Another factor to consider is the watch’s service history. Luxury watches, particularly mechanical ones, require periodic servicing to ensure they continue functioning accurately. Pre-owned watches that have been regularly serviced are more likely to be reliable and last longer, making them a better investment in the long run.

Finally, it’s important to research the specific model before making a purchase. Understanding the market value of the watch, including its price range in both the new and pre-owned markets, will help buyers assess whether they are getting a fair deal. Furthermore, knowledge of the brand’s history, the watch’s materials, and its movement will provide valuable insight into its long-term value and potential appreciation.

The Future of Pre-Owned Watches in Singapore

With the growing awareness of sustainability and the desire for more personalized, unique items, the pre-owned watch market is poised to continue its growth in Singapore. As consumers become more conscious of value and craftsmanship, the demand for pre-owned timepieces is expected to rise. For both seasoned collectors and first-time buyers, this market offers a fantastic opportunity to own a luxury watch at a fraction of its original cost while enjoying the thrill of finding a timepiece with its history and story.

In conclusion, affordable pre-owned watches in Singapore offer an excellent alternative to buying new luxury timepieces. With a strong market, trusted retailers, and a wide range of brands available, buyers have access to high-quality, well-maintained watches at prices that suit their budget. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or someone looking to make your first luxury watch purchase, Singapore’s pre-owned watch market holds tremendous value for every watch enthusiast. Whether you’re adding to your collection or making your first luxury purchase, start your journey with trusted retailers like Luxury Hunts and get unbeatable value. Don’t miss out—find your ideal watch now!
