Re: New Orient Triton Diver
It looks good. I remember seeing them at $320 recently but I guess they sold in a flash so now they go for more.
Re: New Orient Triton Diver
Not bad looking. People will complain about the PR meter, but complications are Orient's "thing". It is sort of a cheaper version of their Pro Saturation Diver.
Re: New Orient Triton Diver
I've been considering this lately. Seems like an awful lot of watch for the money. Creation has the black and blue models for $317. They have the two tone on Ebay for about $20 more. On the other hand, Long Island Watch now has them for $389 and $409, but is it worth an additional $70 to get an AD backed warranty?
No, it's not Tourettes.
Re: New Orient Triton Diver
i've been really eyeing the blue one. I started out considering one of the blue Mako II's but I think it would be worth saving up another $200 and springing for the triton.ChuckW wrote: ↑Sat Jul 07, 2018 6:38 pmI've been considering this lately.

Re: New Orient Triton Diver
Got a Triton in classic black a few days ago. So far, I'm impressed with the quality for value. I think you'd have trouble finding anything comparable in a micro-brand for less than $700. Though it has the same movement as the Saturation Diver, the size is a lot more manageable. Like the OSD 300, the bezel play is superb and the lume is very nice. Even the power reserve hand is lumed. I'm in no hurry to size the bracelet since I have other options handy.

Re: New Orient Triton Diver
Terry, I think I read somewhere that the L2L is 51mm. For reference, my wrist is 7.75".

Re: New Orient Triton Diver
Another Tapatalk issue, I guess. They show up fine on the browser. It looks great on the Isofrane.

Chuck are you still loving this one? Did you end up getting it from creation or long island?ChuckW wrote: ↑Fri Jul 20, 2018 9:49 amGot a Triton in classic black a few days ago.

Re: New Orient Triton Diver
I opted to spend a little more and get it from a reputable stateside AD rather than grey market dealer in Singapore. The price was still pretty reasonable. It's a lot of watch for the money, so yeah, I'm happy with it.

Re: New Orient Triton Diver
It looks like a perfect fit on your wrist as well, congrats
Re: New Orient Triton Diver
Also wanted to mention that if you bought from orientwatchusa keep an eye on your credit card because mine was immediately hit with fraudulent charges after I made a purchase with them and a few other people over on WUS had it happen to them as well
