BEWARE OF FRAUD:
Only watches purchased from USA-certified dealers are covered by the Orient Watch's International warranty, as well as by an after-sale service that matches the brand's demanding standards.
This Orient model is another shining example of Orient Watch Company's commitment to simple clean designs. A self-winding automatic powered by their own in-house manufactured 21 jewel watch engine, this model is very sharp looking in stainless steel finished in a very refined machined metal finish.
This watch just looks plain good and it's all business. This watch as a single complication of a power reserve analog dial at 12 o'clock. The power reserve indicator lets you know how many hours are left before the mechanism is completely unwound.
The Black model of this watch has yellow indicators accenting the face which really looks good. The white dial watch uses red, which is also an outstanding combination. It's a difficult choice to make because both look very sharp.

The size of this watch at 38.5mm and 4.42oz is somewhere right around average in diameter and weight. It's a little smaller than even the smallest dive watch style we carry, so this watch is certainly not obtrusive or oversized as so many automatics can get which generally start around 40mm diameter and go up from there. This is a very nice watch all-around and relatively compact for an automatic.
The knurled stems (crowns) are a very nice touch which adds an industrial type look to it and makes a statement about its intended use as a military timepiece.
Like all of Orient Watch Company's offerings, you will receive a full one year factory warranty that is valid worldwide.
The suggested retail price of this watch is $330, which again, as with all Orient watches, is a good price compared to say some European automatics. But at $169 it is one of the best bargains out there.
Now, if you think you're getting a lesser quality automatic than let's say a Swiss automatic, you're wrong. Orient has been making mechanical watches from day one and was at the forefront of self-winding technology. They stuck with manufacturing self-winding technology throughout the advent of quartz technology. Orient's movements are renowned worldwide for their quality and accuracy and they are recipients of many awards for their engineering and design prowess. Orient doesn't play second fiddle to any watch manufacturer, and most certainly not to the Swiss or other European watchmakers.
So, if you're looking for a high quality watch with a brand that not everyone is wearing, buy quality, buy Orient. You will not be disappointed in your purchase. If you think these watches look good in the pictures, wait until you open the premium gift box they are packaged in. You will be absolutely thrilled with the fit, finish and overall crisp and clean design of this model.
