Just wanted to see if anyone in this forum has a Zodiac Oceanaire? How do you like it?

Before the Orsa I was about to pull the trigger on one of these, but the Orsa put the Zodiac on the back burner for me after I get at least 3 of the Orsa SAs!. Still I may get one of them, how does anybody like them?

Have you found a place to buy from yet?

I found a place with great pricing, but I cannot vouch for them because I have not bought from them yet....

http://www.glooks.com - will match price

I have this one... it is huge but very comfortable on the wrist. Unfortunately since then I have acquired quite a few others that I like so much more, it doesnt get much wrist time. But it is a great piece - am trying to find the blue silicone strap for it; I think that would bring it back into rotation for me.

Glooks will match the price? Cool! I bought my Hamilton Khaki Navy from them, no problems at all. I noticed that Classybrand was listing out of stock, but they have a sister site called Luxurywatchstore.com (same contact info/address as Classy Brand) that says they are in stock. I would rather deal with Glooks.

Cheers,
Griff

Steve,

In comparison to the Orsa Sea Angler, are they about the same size/feel?

Erwin... the Zodiac case is larger in width. Between the two, I prefer the look, size and feel of the Orsa. If I were to make a choice between the two, the Orsa would win out hands down. cat28.gif

I would have to agree on the Orsa winning out, and I don't even have my Orsa yet! LOL!

I still think I'll get one just to keep in my stables! I'm deciding between the Orange or Black Zodiac. :)

Well if you are like me, there is a predominance of black dial watches already in my collection, so I would go for alittle color.
