I have to admit that I know very little about this watch brand, but that is a sharp looking watch with a great dial color. Congrats.

Well respected watch manufacturer from Japan From Wikipedia: The Orient Watch Company, Limited (オリエント時計株式会社 Oriento Tokei Kabushikigaisha?) is Japan's largest producer of mechanical watches[citation needed]. It has been a subsidiary of the Seiko Epson Corporation since 2001 and became a wholly owned subsidiary of Seiko Epson in 2009.[1] The company produces both quartz and mechanical watches, but concentrates its marketing efforts and receives 55% of its international sales from the latter.[citation needed] The company was founded in Tokyo, July 1950; though, it has roots that date back to 1901 when Shogoro Yoshida opened a wholesale watch shop in Ueno. Through its sixty-year history, the company has contributed several technological advances in watchmaking efficiency such as the development of power-reserve indicators and use of in-house movement production of watches in the hundred-dollar price range.[citation needed] In-house movement production, defined as a watch manufacturer having direct intellectual property rights to the movement they produce, is not common; the list of companies that do this is very short.[citation needed] Orient sets itself apart from the other major Japanese watch companies by focusing on self-winding mechanical watches; Seiko, Citizen, Ricoh Elemex and others primarily or exclusively sell quartz watches.[says who?]

I like Orient watches, but not at the UK rip of prices. From the link posted in the US with discount it is $301.98 in the UK on Amazon it is £376, which equates to $586.56. I purchased my last orient from the US and even with taxes, it was cheaper than buying in the UK.
