Thank you for the votes! The winner, WISE Asura!!! ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽŠ

So yeah, seeing as a big majority voted for the Wise Asura I bowed to the inevitable and bought one. So yeah, I bought the grey dial, the red is a bit too exciting for me.

Surprise surprise, Wise gave a discount of $140 so yeah, I even got it at the same price point as the Visitor Duneshore Shallows! Woohoo! ๐ŸŽ‰

So yeah, we'll wait until July for my dressy watch to arrive.

Congratulations! Which colour did you get?

There is a typo in the order! You didn't save US$140, you just spent US$750! ๐Ÿ˜‚Kidding! Fantastic discount!

The grey one with Thai numerals. Yes, yes, I can hear the questions of why didn't I pick the red dial? It pops and would be an interesting conversation starter!

My parry being, I intend to make this my main dress-y watch and grey being a neutral colour gives me more options when coordinating with the rest of my outfit. It being 100m WR makes me feel better (Malaysian thing, we eat food using our hands so yeah, a watch with more WR means less worry when washing hands before and after eating).

Bonus points, I have a good watch to wear to go to a funeral (Chinese, Japanese, East Asians and South East Asians will understand my not wearing anything red to a funeral).

Nice! I like you tend to go for pragmatic choices too (hence most of my watches are either black/dark grey or white/light dialed.

I was going to say, people in MY don't use their left hand to eat (regarding WR - left hand is for other business๐Ÿ˜‚)! Then I realise from your WRUW that you wear your watches on the right hand. ๐Ÿ˜€

The pros and cons of being a lefty in Malaysia, eh? ๐Ÿคฃ

Nice choice. You have a really cool purple dial already so a red dial would be redundant. Don't ever apologize for mono chromatic dials and watches. They are timeless, classic and cool.

Now onto the hard part waiting. ๐Ÿฅ‚

I'll wait with you if we do a John Hughes marathon. But Ferris Buellers, Uncle Buck and trains, planes and Automobiles are a must.
