Wanting to buy Orient Mako

Hey there,



Im ridhwan and a newbie into this. I have been wanting to buy Orient Mako for my birthday and this will be my first automatic watch. I notice, while searching online, that there are many websites which sell the orient mako at different prices.



As such, I wanna share the links here and appreciate if fellow members esp seasoned members can comment on whether the prices are good, too good to be true or expensive. Also appreciate if you can comment if the source website can be trusted, viable or best avoided. thanks.

To be honest, I am more leaning towards Skywatches or Island Watch, but again, appreciate your input. If you guys have other sources for good price Orient Mako, do sound out here as well.



thanks all and regards

IMO, The Bencoolen prices are pretty reasonable.



Win's Trading.



$152 for Mako 1





$173 for Orient Raven

@lunarin79 152 sgd for Mako 1 is about the same as 120 usd, yes? sounds reasonable indeed. I will consider that. What is your comment on Skywatches.com.sg and Island Watches?

if 120usd is already inclusive of shipping.



if the prices are almost close, I will buy directly from shops here, to save on the waiting part of shipping.



I have not purchased any watches from skywatches & longisland before hence I cam unable to comment much ;)



but for Orient Mako, I will get it from Win's Trading.

THanks again, lunarin79. THe price of $152 at Win's Trading, is it after 30% discount? Will check it out maybe during the weekdays.

With CNY coming, weekends will be very crowded there.



Is Win's Trading the only shop that sells Orient?
