        Mega - well what to say…imo it's a lot of bang for the buck. great watch, great size (not too big,not too small!), great detailing and it looks like a lot of love was put into it as well. the blue dial is amazing and the steel bracelet is perfect as well!
        you really can't go wrong with this one lad...

        just my 2cents o/course 😉

          I'm a tad biased, Mega, but I think the blue dial Mako is a really versatile, beautiful watch.  Mechanically, either one is a great buy.  They will both be totally dependable for years, despite whatever abuse you subject them to, but the Mako will look good in any situation, from suits to overalls.  I don't think the Monster has the same flexibility.

          EDIT: glad you're enjoying it Rafa.:)  I still have mixed feelings about letting it go, but I just didn't wear it often enough.

            No sapphire dial though… But not mineral either: hardlex...

            Hardlex is mineral. However I wouldn't pass on a nice watch because of that..

            AIAN HA-TO!

              I'd go with this one. (pic borrowed from Google)

              Just because i love the looks of it. Tone it down with a leather strap, wear a rubber strap for a sporty look and the steel bracelet to show who's the boss.. 😉

              Not saying the mako is not a nice watch, but personally I'll go with the Monster…

                  Hmmm been looking at:



                  For 125 $… No sapphire dial though... But not mineral either: hardlex...

                  Incommiiiiiinnngg. Came to 90 €. Not bad. It's def within the budget. 🙂 It's brandnew/ unworn/ unaltered as well.

                                            Agree to disagree, I don't have girly wrists I need a watch that is substantial 44mm-46mm for me.
