First Mako first titanium watch a fantastic package awesome size and fit for my wrist.
Pictures just don’t do this justice would still love a Burgundy but wish it had the same natural ti bezel as this.
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.I think that smug may be the bracelet rubbing on the snap button, in case.

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!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.

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.Both my Horizon and HamerHead 3, were not in the cloth pouch section.

"full Titanium case and bracelet hardened to 1200Vickers"
Good point. I did think about the plastic or the coating!If the trinket was turned around and came in contact with the snap the coating should have done the job protecting it.

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