I really like the look of the Pita Oceania. I was wondering if any of you with your extended knowledge base might know of a watch that looks similar but is not as expensive. Any suggestions would be appreciated. All the best Matt |

Wow, I like that. Reminds me of a rounded version of a UTS -- specifically the 1000v2: http://www.utswatches.com/1000m-dive-watch |

Yeah, it would've bought it if they took online payments, but they want you to order by phone. Oh well. |

  The new offering from Kalmar looks pretty interesting......somewhat same shape/concept. It was featured Tlex's blog. I do not think the site is up and running at last check. Fully customizable....titanium....might be worth a look |

Very nice...  ...I have to admit I'm liking the looks and design features of this new Kalmar H2O quite a bit!!!Also digging the choice of brushed Ti or DLC on Bead Blasted Ti as finish, 12 dial choices, and numerous other customization options for starters.  Ah...this WIS disease is trouble I tell you...trouble...hammer.gif Last edited on Thu Feb 10th, 2011 11:29 pm by stew77 |

Luv the Pita.  It's unique, so finding something similar will be tough I think. I dig the look and the whole idea of it. What appeals to me is the "artisan" aspect and the innovative design. A Ti version is scheduled for this year. Last edited on Fri Feb 11th, 2011 09:56 am by timesofplenty |
