That's why you stick to a leather strap. Just find a watch you like that has lugs that will nicely accept a leather strap, then go buy a nice one from Hirsch or Di-Modell and you've got yourself a great piece.

This dude is brilliant, the only guy at the shop and he gives deep tissue massage...bet he knows every inch of those ladies. He is my new Hero (sorry Frost).

Got this one in yesterday.

m4a1mustang · 08-20-2010, 10:28 AM

UPS just swung by and delivered another diver watch I ordered. Orient Mako. I got it on sale for 50% off and wanted to see what all the fuss was about since so many people rave about them. Let's just say it's worth every penny and then some.

Matt · 08-20-2010, 01:36 PM

How much did it run you? From where?

m4a1mustang · 08-20-2010, 01:41 PM

$95 shipped... lol. From Orientwatchusa.com. They were having a 49% off sale with the code Surprise49. It expires sometime today so not sure if it's still on.

Edit: Looks like they're doing a 30% sale right now with code Today30, so a Mako would be $133 shipped, which still is a good price. You won't find this quality in a mechanical watch under $200.

kenchan · 08-20-2010, 02:01 PM

mustang-which one is that? looks good. im very harsh on watches so this might work for me too.

m4a1mustang · 08-20-2010, 02:05 PM

It's the Orient Mako. They offer it in a few different color combinations.

kenchan · 08-20-2010, 02:06 PM

cool, which color is yours? i like that darker hue.

m4a1mustang · 08-20-2010, 02:08 PM

It's the blue one.

Pics don't do it justice, it's a really cool blue!

The orange and yellow versions are very popular.

A few hours ago I ordered a black one while they were still doing the 49% sale.

kenchan · 08-20-2010, 02:14 PM

cool. so they give you a free something with each purchase, huh? i like the blue.

m4a1mustang · 08-20-2010, 02:16 PM

Yeah, just kind of random luck of the draw thing. With my blue one I got this one, a ladies quartz watch:

It's actually pretty nice. I'll just give it to my mom this weekend since obviously I can't wear it.

Very interested to see what I get with this next watch. Hopefully it's something I can use!

m4a1mustang · 08-20-2010, 02:20 PM

Guys I just tested it, "Surprise49" is still working. So if you want to buy the watch try entering that code and you'll get 49% off.

kenchan · 08-20-2010, 02:39 PM

cool, good that ive been checking out the site a little cause i was about to pull the trigger on the mako black.
