I'm looking at Orient's Mako type kind of diver's watch any "challenger" to recommend from Seiko? Btw, any idea how much the shops are selling mako? I didn't have time to check them up too busy with work.  sad.gif

I love my Blue Mako tongue.gif

Seiko 5's are probably the match for match, though I do not like Seiko's enough to recommend you a model. I so far do not recall any shops carrying Mako, at least not those I actively have the chance to check out. I got my online, then having a friend who was coming back from US bring it back.

I do not own a camera, so here a current pic I just took with my gf's hp so apologies for the poor quality smile.gif

Thanks fuzzy for the nice shot of your mako. I will look around for it do you mind revealing how much you paid for it?  thumbup.gif

Can't really remember exact pricing to be honest, somewhere around RM250-RM350 because I purchased it off the Orient USA website that always welcomes coupons and such. I also saved a bit on shipping as my friend was helping me to carry it back. And well, it looks like she'll be back somewhere around January, so perhaps she might be able to help you if you do want it, no guarantees though smile.gif

@fuzzy. damn, that's an awesome price for the mako...the shipping normally is the killer.

Yeap, and the movement was what did it for me over the Seiko 5's, since we hardly ever see Mako's here laugh.gif

I was worried the XL's would look huge because I have skinny wrist sad.gif

And I know there is a few shops that carry Orients, since I got their details from the website, but never heard of one carryng exclusively Orients only. Will have to go check it out! thumbup.gif
