Orient makes some great pieces. They seem to get overlooked by many. I don't know why. they make great watches at reasonable prices. This one is no exception. Congrats and enjoy.

i'm going to be brutally honest here- that watch did nothing for me when i saw it on the website. your photos have greatly changed my perception of it. excellent photos of a really cool watch enjoy it

Thanks for the nice words about the pics. They're fun to make. Also, the power reserve really helps me since I don't have a winder for the autos... For the record, I gotta dig your avatar pic! The Sopranos is my favorite HBO series of all time. Fav TV show, period. I remember Tony once gave his cousin a $15,000 Patek Philippe (fell off a truck I think...fuhgeddaboutit)

Sometimes seeing some "real" pictures of a watch sells it much better than the generic, straight-on, run-of-the-mill catalog photo. Very nice watch! I like the Orient brand. I have only one, but am pretty sure I'll have another eventually, especially considering their affordable prices.
