Hey guys, been looking at these for a while now and going to pull the trigger tonight but can't decide between the 2.

Is there much difference apart from the bezel as everything else looks the same, is either one better then the other?

Don't mean to muddy the waters here, but I'd rather have the Kamasu than either of the two above - I prefer the larger markers on the dial of the Kamasu & the only thing I didn't like on mine was the quality of the bracelet clasp, but this was easily rectified by replacing it with a milled one - Here's a pic of mine (which I think is still owned by someone here?)

Got both in front of me here and to all intents and purposes they are the same watch, Case and bezel shape are identical (both 22mm lug width), same movement, both screw down crowns. Differences are purely cosmetic with the dial design and handset and the bracelet on the Ray has a polished "stripe" down the sides of the centre links while the Mako is a trad brushed Oyster style.



Not the best example for comparison, Ray is father in law's and he experimented with giving the bezel a plain brushed finish and it's currently off the bracelet but hopefully you get the idea.
