I got this one about a month ago and am once again impressed with the attention to detail. Listed at 40mm, it's really only 38-39mm as they always in clude the crown. Crystal is top grade sappphire, says so on the back. The movement has the power reserve and although non-hacking I believe it to be one of their better movements as it is heavier and feels more solid than many of their offerings. It comes on a nice high gloss thin leather strap of good quality and this one will fit the bigger wrist, also uses a single deployment clasp. Case back is see-through with a nicely finished movement. I would say all the little touches are there on this one. I wear it both in business as well as casual occasions and would recommend it if you are looking for a dressy kind of retro look.

The dial has a darker color inside with the outer ring having a sunray finish that's almost a lite gold color under normal household lighting. All stick markers are very highly polished giving off a diamond like sparkle and little if any AR coating is used. Lum is only on the hands and is just average. Hope this helps add to previous desription.

That looks real nice.

The color and detail of the dial are excellent.

Nice color combo, like the stainless with the cream dial.... maybe a nice addition would be a nice brown/tan strap? Enjoy!

I love it but my wife doesn't!

She doesn't like it because photos like yours make me psyched up to go get my own...which I did!

My first Orient gets here tomorrow. Me (and my wife) thank you guys in advanced...:)

WOW!! Where did you get it. I am looking for the same watch but I need it with the brown strap and the white dial. Man....that watch is very very hard to find. I ended up call the distributor in California and leaving them a message.

You might have to buy the white with the bracelet and buy a strap for it.

I actually purchased this one last night but I still have my eye on the other one. I just really need a classic watch with a brown leather strap.

Thanks!!
