QUOTE(ritan @ Jun 11 2015, 07:00 PM) Thanks for your reply. Which outlet at Sg. Wang did you see the Blue and Pepsi Mako? I must have missed the third one in the mall directory... I'm going to zero in on the Pepsi Mako for now and wait till the US sites are stocking the sapphire glass Mako that was just announced for Summer 2015. the shop is called orient, renamed from solar time. the other 2 solar time outlets, 1 is obviously called solar time...the other is time couture...all same management. |

Cool, got it. I'll go back and check this outlet out. Yeah, they are all under AD Time which brings in a whole load of other brands. Thanks. |

well, finally got my first Orient from Solar Time, Sunway. Though, hating the strap as it was quite stuffy, lack of ventilation. My wrist was sweating. need to change the strap or I might give it to my dad. we'll see in the next few days. 
Thank you desmond08 for your advice. much appreciated. This post has been edited by boygenetic: Jun 12 2015, 02:19 AM |

Anyone bought Orient watches while travelling in Japan before?
Was thinking if it will be worth it to get one there, thanks!

No numbers on the dial. well, never had an auto diver watch before. the only diver in my collection is my froggie.  Mako seems interesting. will have it in my wishlist. |

No but I think they have lots of models not sold outside Japan. I would look for something from the Orient Star range which is of a higher quality with price to match.

U can try to ask Jam May May if they can pre-order for u. Prices at the shop may be cheaper than US cos no shipping fees.
