    Laguna or Puck? Please help!

    So I decided that I really like the Halios Laguna... then the Puck started to slowly creep into my mind, now it won't leave. I really like the potential versatility of the Laguna but the uniqueness of the Puck is just so cool. I've got just over an 8 inch wrist so I think both would fit fairly well and I'm curious to see how the Puck would sit. And if I'm not mistaken the Laguna will be a permanent installment in Halios' line-up, how about the Puck? Is the Puck a design that will disappear after a bit? If so then I might just grab one of those and wait a bit to see if I can work a Laguna in later...

    Thoughts?
    Thanks in advance.

    I have both. I strongly prefer the Laguna as an everyday watch. I do wear the Puck on weekends and enjoy it but I think it looks odd at my desk job. That's certainly just personal preference. They are both great.

    My vote would be for the Puck. I don't believe you'd have any issues with the way it sits on your wrist. The Puck is big at 47mm, but doesn't have a very high profile (14.5mm, if I recall correctly). My wrist is about 7.25" and the Puck looks and feels just fine.

    Otherwise it's a tough decision. Never had a Laguna, but really like the way they look.

    Good luck!

    Also an 8 " wrist here, and the puck sits really nicely on bracelet or rubber strap. Here's a couple of pics for your reference:

    I would agree that the Laguna is a better daily wearer, and is currently on my to buy list!

    I have both, and I wear the Puck much, much more often. Not to detract from the Laguna in any way, of course.

    Thanks for all the replies! Again, the versatility of the Laguna might win out here.

    Anybody else have both like 92degrees?

    Hi,
    I just sold my Black Laguna to fund my Blue Laguna. i think the Laguna is the most versatile watch I have owned. It does everything well. That said, the design of the Puck is so pure. I just wish it was 2-3mm less in size. The Blue Puck was so beautiful in the recent updates to the site. ..... So many watches. So few $$$$$$
    Peace
