Takken 0 Posted April 17, 2011 Orient is a very good watch-brand. They are way up there with Seiko's and as Seiko they are also underestimated - but for no valid reason at all. Nice watch! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeNnY 29 Posted April 17, 2011 really nice ! Thanks Takken.. Checked ebay, and it is around 115 USD, what is great when you think that I got this watch for free http://cgi.ebay.com/NOS-VINTAGE-ORIENT-SK-...1#ht_1188wt_905 and year of manufacture will be around 1970 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seclark007 11 Posted April 18, 2011 Very sexy indeed! Kinda futuristic and uncommon. I like the two-tone very much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
graman 2 Posted April 18, 2011 Graman don't you have the Aquaracer already that need only relume job done ? Yeah mate...I've got the blue and orange job...currently going to Offshore, so that the mech can be replaced by Mary....it's dead atm...lume on the hands and indicies are quite good, but the bezel and sub seconds dial...all the orange is pretty ordinary. I miss this watch....I wasn't sure I liked it before I bought it, then fell in love with it.....awesome bit of kit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
