PostSubject: Couple of new arrivals.   Couple of new arrivals. Icon_minitimeSat Jul 03, 2010 9:51 pm

So unexpectedly a box arrived at the door Monday. Thought it was something I had ordered from Surefire but I saw the return address and started thinking "Who do I know that lives here?" So I opened it up and to my surprise it was a Orient Black Mako Surprised . After a quick inquiry I found out it came from HenryJ. Had no idea this was coming at all and I have to say Thank You very much Henry :salute: . So a couple of days later ANOTHER package arrives in the mail Shocked . After peeking at the return address again this one came from Croatia Shocked . Open it up and there is a strap set that completely came caught me by surprise and a HUGE Thank You to Joe for the straps Couple of new arrivals. 203558 . So I put the new straps on the new Mako and I'm not sure if the colors are a good match or not. If the bezel was silver it might be a little better match but it seems with the black bezel....... So opinions on the new strap and watch, yah or nay. Be honest cuz if not a zulu will probably go on the Mako and I have another watch I could try the straps on.

I like the watch, and the straps Brian ! Couple of new arrivals. 803574 Couple of new arrivals. 803574 Kudos to
Henry, and Joe by the way ! Couple of new arrivals. 46145 VERY VERY COOL of
them both !!!..That watch looks EXTREMELY classy, as
well as sporty. The large notches at the 1,3,5,7,9, and
11 o'clock locations are off the charts ! Also like how
the black of the bezel works with the black dial. Making
the dial look bigger, and the watch that much cooler.
The hands are nice, and large, while the red on the end
of the second hand is another nice touch imho. Some
great numbers, as well as markers too !!!..The strap
looks AWESOME by the way. It brings yet another
level of class, along with a super smooth theme to an
already cool watch ! Couple of new arrivals. 803574 Super pictures, watch, and
strap ! Congratulations on receiving these, and..ENJOY !

What a nice surprise. The combo looks fine, a NATO would work on it too though.

Love the straps Brian but...........to me, they seem a bit much for this watch. The color combo looks good. I think it is the thickness and style of the strap that I am looking at. A Nato or rubber strap or SS bracelet are other possibilities. Try them and shoot us some pics.

. . . killer surprise 'eh??? I have always liked that Orient, I think IMO the NATO may be the way to go. The strap is awesome, but is a little heavy for the Orient.

. . . you must be livin' right Bro . . . Couple of new arrivals. Icon_cheers
