Great watch, punches above its weight.
I've owned several Orient watches, this one continues their tradition of excellence. Well made, good lume, nice finishing. The rotor is a little loud, and the bezel isn't particularly 'clicky', but it does have a nice feel to its rotation. This watch stacks up nicely against Seiko/Citizen pieces 2-4 time the cost, as well as entry level Swiss such as lower tier Tissot/Hamilton/Victorinox (as long as you don't care about the swiss origin). Finishing on the entry level Swiss watches will generally be nicer, and somewhat thinner, but it depends on the model. Very pleased with it. **Oooh edit** very important- my review is for the watch itself. The bracelet is acceptable at best. Hollow end links. Kinda loud. Finished ok, but not great. I wear mine on a NATO or silicon tropic style strap and love it.

Really beautiful.
The media could not be loaded. It is a fantastic watch, it is everything I expected from it and more. It is an amazing machine, for the price you pay for it.It is absolutely important to get informed and know what this watch offers you, just as it is essential to know exactly what you want.In my case I took some time to study about the different options, read different forums and opinions, to then conclude that this was the model I would want and what it offers me. This way you won't have any disappointments or inconformities.The main strengths for me: sapphire crystal, automatic, water resistance of 200 meters, luminescent, precision more than acceptable.

The quality!
The case,the bracelet, the dial, the hands, it’s difficult to put every single detail together to make this piece awesome! Orient does it always and at a very affordable price! Thanks you Orient!

Fantastic versatile watch
I’ve had this watch for nearly two months now and have worn it nearly every day. I have not at any time exhausted the power reserve even after not wearing for over a day. My watch runs about 7 seconds fast per day which is no problem at all considering I check the watch to find the general time.I thought I would prefer a leather strap to a bracelet so I had ordered one prior to receiving it, however the bracelet is super comfortable and although it is a cheaper bracelet, it really doesn’t feel like one on the wrist. I would still recommend getting a leather band in addition because it only improves the versatility of the watch.My only gripe is that sometimes the crown can be a little bit slippery to unscrew, but seeing as I don’t need to do it often, it’s hardly a problem, I would highly recommend this watch.

Great every day watch
Updating after 1 year.The only two things I dislike about the watch is the time needs to be updated every month. It runs about 5.5 seconds fast per day. So it’s 2 minutes fast by the end of the month. Not a huge deal but it is annoying. The crown is hard to screw in with such tiny threads and no grip after setting the watch.The best thing I like about the watch is I’ve worn it almost every day for the last year and it has held up very well. One day at work I smacked my wrist on a concrete wall and I thought for sure I broke the face. When I looked down at my watch there was only a little scuff. I hit it so hard that the paint from the concrete wall chipped off. The sapphire Crystal has proven to be very durable, there is not a single scratch. The paint along the bezel is showing some scuffs but I’ve smacked this thing on so many different hard objects I can’t complain. The band is less durable but still good. Overall I am happy with the purchase. Non of my other watches (Bulova, Seiko, Citizen) are even close to the durability that this watch offers.

Got it today, absolutely beautiful watch!
Very happy with my purchase. I was worried that it might be a little large, I am used to wearing a 38mm Seiko, but this watch wears small IMO. I can only review the looks so far (just got it) but in that department, it does not disappoint! I am glad I went with the black, the red or green would have been too much (style) for my style.Had it for a bit now, and love it! I am very surprised at it's accuracy. It is 1-2 per day. The finish is excellent, and the band doesn't pull hairs.

Inmejorable calidad y estética por precio
Mi primer Orient fue el "New Triton" (sin la complicación de reserva de marcha) y quedé impresionado con la calidad y estética VS el precio. Luego tuve el Kamasu verde (teal-green) el cual era bellísimo, pero lo vendí porque simplemente el color no lograba encajar con mi personalidad, así que compré la versión en negro, y se convirtió en mi reloj favorito! Combinable con shorts, jeans, ropa de oficina o traje formal. Recibe más tiempo en mi muñeca que mis otros Hamilton, Tissot y Omega. Al igual que los otros 2 Orient que he tenido, el punto de las 12 del bisel alinea perfectamente con el dial, lo cual no ocurre con mi Seiko King Turtle de 600 $US. Orient es calidad asegurada, se cumple la premisa de la calidad, belleza y economía en un solo reloj..P.D: El dial aunque es negro, tiene un tornasol dependiendo del ángulo en que recibe luz, no es una simple pintura matte sobre la esfera. La acción del bisel es como debe ser, ni blanda ni dura. Su tamaño es ideal para muñecas entre 6,25" y 7,75" y como recomendación; con una Strapcode Miltat el diseño del reloj termina de cerrar por completo.

Great watch overall
Great for the price! Decent power reserve; I can go a day without wearing it and not have to reset the time. And it is surprisingly heavy (some consider that a downside but I like it). My only real complaint is that the bracelet is squeaky, not so bad when you're wearing it but you will notice it every now and then, and it's really bad when it's off the wrist. Keep in mind they had to cut cost somewhere and I would much rather it be the bracelet than the materials or the movement. All things considered I'm happy with my purchase!
