The Orange colour is fantastic, it seems to wear slightly smaller than the 44mm it’s advertised as. Bezel action is best I’ve had on any watch, absolutely zero play and clicks wonderfully. Screw down crown too. Everything lines up perfectly, even the bezel markets are designed to line up with the edge of the lugs. Cons are its non hacking and non hand winding and the lume is garbage My iphone pics don’t teally do it any justice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The King Seiko that I was wearing (above) has no lume at all. Glad you're happy with the Orient, they are really well made for the price. Enjoy your acquisition.

Neither do I dive in dark waters...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
