:dance2: Very sharp, and impressive!:wink: Thanks Mike.:hat:
 
Fantastic watch. Really got my eye on an ice blue with stainless bezel from the previous iteration. That and a thresher. But with what I got inbound, they will have to wait.

While Zelos has done may Titanium Damascus (aka Timascus) watches in the past, this is the first one with the dial being done in Timascus, rather than the case. Very unique look, and something that I hope Zelos can do more of in the future. Please enjoy......

I think that smug may be the bracelet rubbing on the snap button, in case. I have thought that’s a week area in the travel case.

I'm not a fan of the new package, but the watch head is always tucked down in the pouch on the ones I receive. That would make it really difficult for the snaps to come in contact with the lug/bracelet area close to the watch head.

Both my Horizon and HamerHead 3, were not in the cloth pouch section. No complaint from me as my watches were fine. I did ask Elshan about purchasing a pouch if I get a Great White, he said they were sold out. Borealis has a nice travel package. I should add that I was surprised by Borealis, how little extra protection was around watch and just mailed in an envelope!

If the trinket was turned around and came in contact with the snap the coating should have done the job protecting it. I think it's just a production flaw. I think there would be plenty of folks with damaged marred up trinkets unless they are blind if the case was the culprit.

Good point. I did think about the plastic or the coating!
 
:banghead: As much as I enjoy the ZELOS I own .. there isn't any watch on this earth I'll ever desire enough to pay almost twice what it sold for less than a month ago. I don't care if it was sold years ago and was owned by Christ, Paul Neuman or the Queen Of Sheba.

After days of contemplating this decision, I think I may be selling my #19 Damascus Mako. The watch is in brand new condition with all the stickers still on it.

I love how the watch looks and feels, it just might be too small for my wrist size(currently wear a HH3). As a college student with a passion for watches, I feel that if someone would give the watch the wear time it deserves then they should get it.

I have a idea of what I would like to get for the watch, but feel free to offer me what you think the watch is worth. I am open to trades also.

Edit: after an hour Competitive offers hover around $1000 usd. USA based for shipping purposes, buyer cover international shipping if necessary.

I know that these were $599 when they sold out very quickly a couple of weeks ago, so there is clearly a high demand for them. The fact you are getting offers around $1000 really shows just how high that demand really is. Impressive.

Anthony Lauder I think it also comes down to how each one is one of kind. So some people like certain dials more than others.

James Bond 007, checking in! It is simply Amazing! (Unaltered pics just with iPhone.) But before I peel the stickers and size it, I just need to know if anyone else really wants one enough to offer that 1k price we saw earlier today? (I would also consider a trade for a Skyraider.)

I'll let him know something but it won't be about wanting the watch. What a tool. :down:

I agree man. A friend offered $750 for one and they turned it down. I wish I had two .. I would have let it go to him for what I paid ET.

That's approximately 25% profit for less than thirty days for doing nothing.

The want 66% @ $1,000 over the $599.00 price paid. :banghead: The sad thing is they will easily get some sucker to pay it.

Well, I have yet to receive my shipping notice for the MOP, while the flippers are already listing that watch for sale on EBay for $699. Sigh, I have no problem waiting, but that just feels wrong.

If it feels wrong I would cancel the order. No sense feeling you're getting the short end of the stick. Refund your funds and buy something else. I'm waiting for my two, but I knew it was going to be three to four weeks as the site mentioned the day they launched. It's been 23 days since I purchased mine.
 
Pretty strange. I received mine but I only ordered the green dial, no special dial(though I think it's special).
I don't know what I would do in this situation. I typically wait things out like a Crowd Funding Project. :dunno:
 
I saw some others griping about the wait times after seeing others get the watches. It started to go SOUTH really fast and was shut down. The only response ET mentioned was it is still in the window of delivery as promised. It was mentioned to send an email for a refund. The time frame is still a far cry from the several months some Kickstarter campaigns take.

I told a few of my friends to just wait for the ZELOS AD's to get the watches and pay the $75.00 more or whatever it might be. It's a trade-off no matter how you look at it. Get the best price with a little bit of a wait or get it within five days and pay more.
