Upfront: this is an incredibly gorgeous watch. There's no two ways about it. I find myself constantly looking at it when I wear it, admiring the gorgeous blue sunburst dial and the pepsi bezel. The brushed finish on the stainless steel case is great and done to a high standard, and the bracelet's endlinks have been well matched with the case finish, even if they are hollow endlinks. At this price point, hollow endlinks are a fair tradeoff, and one that I think most consumers are happy to accept. The rest of the bracelet are solid links, which is another plus in my books.It wears surprisingly small too despite a 42mm case diameter, it still sits reasonably on my 5.9 inch wrist. With dive style watches I find it fitting that they are slightly chunky on the wrist and yet this one does not feel excessive even on my female wrist.Whats more, it is also incredibly good value for money too. To find an automatic, mechanical watch for £120 is simply fantastic value for money, especially when in return you get a reputable brand like Orient, which is a Seiko sub-brand, and an Orient in-house movement. To that end, I am very happy with this purchase, and I suspect my next automatic watch will be another Orient.

I have had this watch for just under a year now and thought it was about time to write a review! What can I say, this watch is excellent. It has been through some scrapes regretfully but it hasn't let me down yet and I'm confident that it will continue to perform for years to come. The build quality is superb and the watch feels and looks like a much more expensive piece on the wrist. Although the watch runs a little fast (only requiring manual adjustment every few days) the Japanese hand movement hasn't skipped a beat since day one and it seems to have had no problems running pretty much continuously for the best part of 10 months. My favourite feature has to be the lume on the hour markers. Charge this baby up before bed with a full day of exposure and it will keep the face illuminated for hours - very handy for a quick time check in the middle of the night! The uni-directional bezel feels solid, the face is a beautiful deep marine blue which compliments the natural tone of your skin perfectly and it almost appears black under certain conditions, only to reveal its true nature when put back into the light. Stunning appearance. The mechanical hacking works well, allowing you to change the date and time with just a few clicks and turns and the crown always screws back down without fuss. I could go on and list every single feature of this watch but I fear I may exceed the wordcount Amazon allows for product reviews. If you're in doubt, go for it. You will not be disappointed. A great submariner homage but a lovely design in its own right too. Orient have done a cracking job with this and I'm considering purchasing another just to keep pristine for the weekend! After my Invicta Pro Diver, this is worlds apart and definitely my new daily wearer!

The good:The style - taking design cues from the Seiko SKX with its large indices and the Rolex Submariner, this is a very nice looking watch with its own identity and personality, not a mere homage.The dial - the sunburst blue dial looks stunning in the light. Lovely applied indices and logo.The bezel - although not a ceramic insert, the bezel looks good and the 120 click action is stiff, possibly a little too stiff, out of the box.The lume - after only half a day's power under normal lighting conditions, the lume was bright and lasted well over 5 hours. Extremely impressive given the price point.The movement - hand-winding and hacking automatic movement at this price point is very good.The finishing - this watch looks and feels like one 5x it's price.The bad:The bracelet - while it has solid links and the finishing is good, it doesn't have solid end links, has push pins and only a pressed clasp. The clasp isn't too bad however, and is to be expected at this price point. The polished edges on the midlinks looks a bit odd, I would have preferred a fully brushed bracket or fully polished midlinks. Overall though the bracelet isn't too bad.The ugly:The crown is way too stiff. I found it impossible to undo while wearing the watch, and I wasn't overly confident I had fully tightened it after setting the time and date. I would be very wary about submersing in water unless I was 100% sure the crown was fully screwed in.All in all, a terrific watch at this price.
