Given up on the Trias for now sad.gif

However, stumbled upon a new love: the Orient Blue Mako

Issue is, I don't see much Orient dealers here or those that carry Mako's. Good news is that I found a way to get the Mako's at 50% off through the website, however it is only for the US market. So I need someone who live there to buy for me biggrin.gif

Blue Mako..cool looking watch. You might want to try the Bay, many sellers there based in Singapore. Got my Nighthawk and Black Monster from one of them at a nice price.

Yea, I do have friends in the US who can help me get it with the 50% off, which comes out to about 90 bucks or so.. Not bad considering this is what we'd pay for a Seiko 5's or Casio's ..

But I just want to compare with the price over here as well as perhaps try it on in real life.

Do try your luck on ADs, they might still have stock. Some member from other forum got it last month for 15.5k (I think is THG Lot 10)
You can PM beau too, he came across a NOS 14060 non cosc in an AD here.
Else, pre-owned market then.

NOS = new old stock
WIS = watch idiot savant, usually to decribe watch ethusiast

14060M from 2000 - 2007

The left one is Stowa Antea 365 and the right one is Tissot PRC200 automatic.

Kindly give some comments, thanks.

Is the Stowa suitable for everyday use? Cause the clean design seems more like a dress watch. Currently looking for a watch that can accompany me everyday and for all occasions. Thanks.

Stowa definitely wins in terms of design, but quality wise I'd side with Tissot simply due to the nature of the Stowa beign a leather strap. It would take more care to protect it from wear and tear, and it otherwise not suitable for everyday usage.

You must have a US address to enjoy the discount I think, I never went that far as to order it yet. I want to take a look at a real life example to see if it does live up to my imagination biggrin.gif
