| | Description | About Orient: Orient Watch was formally established in July 13th, 1950 in Tokyo. However, the history of Orient Watch really dates back to 1901, when Shogoro Yoshida, the founder of Orient, opened a wholesale watch store in Ueno, Japan. Orient Watch has always focused on mechanical watches, primarily automatic watches with its own in-house automatic movements Orient was once part of the "Big Three" watch companies in Japan along with Citizen and Seiko. In the 70s, when mechanical watch companies faced hardship from the mass introduction of inexpensive quartz watches, Citizen and Seiko took the path of mass producing quartz watches, Orient stuck with what it did best, making mechanical watches. Today, Seiko owns a controlling stake in Orient. Orient, however, continues to make its own mechanical movements. For its quartz models, it uses Seiko's quartz movements. What sets Orient apart from other watch companies is really the fact that Orient has always been focusing on making its mechanical movements better and more reliable. It is unusual today to find a watch company that makes its own movement selling watches at prices offered by Orient. Most of the watch companies that do make in-house movements are big name specialized watch companies such as Patek Philippe whose watches ranges from tens of thousands of dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars. To find a specialized watch company that uses in-house movements selling its watches at prices that are affordable to most people is truly refreshing. |  |

FANTASTIC TIME KEEPER. Aug 25, 2010
By Paul D. Sullivan I PURCHASED THIS WATCH ONLINE ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO AND HAVE BEEN PLEASANTLY SURPRISED BY IT'S ACCURACY.
OVER THREE DAYS IT HAS GAINED 15 SECONDS, NOT BAD FOR A $43.00 AUTOMATIC WATCH. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON ORIENT AND THEY MAKE THEIR OWN MOVEMENTS, UNLIKE MOST OF THE OTHER COMPANIES, INCLUDING SOME HIGH END SWISS WATCHES, WHO PURCHASE THEIR MOVEMENTS FROM AN OUTSIDE SUPPLIER. ORIENT IS IN HOUSE ENTIRELY. AFTER SEEING THE QUALITY FOR THEIR INEXPENSIVE MOVEMENT, I WENT AHEAD AND PURCHASED ONE OF THEIR MORE EXPENSIVE WATCHES.
I REPLACED THE CHEAP STAINLESS STEEL BRACELET WITH AN INEXPENSIVE STITCHED LEATHER STRAP STRAP.
Update 14 September 2010
I have been tracking the error on this and all my automatic watches for 2 weeks, via the official US Time web page ([...]). This watch has gained an average of 2.5 sec. per day, and my three other Orients have done even better.
I have also attached my photos of the watch.

Good for the money, but not top-end Jul 19, 2010
By Gabor Szakacs I bought this watch as a gift, so I haven't worn it myself. I did however make
sure it was running properly and set the time and date. Some observations were
that the band feels a little cheap, the watch only winds by movement, not with
the stem. Also with the blue face it is hard to read the day of the week. The
days of week each have a window that fills in with a red dot when the date changes
and then turns to blue when it is safe to change the date / day again. This
blue is almost the same as the watch face, so the day of the week is the one that
doesn't seem to have a dot near it. You don't have to wind the time to the
correct day of week as on some watches. There is a button where a stop-watch
would be on other watches that advances the day of week only. All in all I
think it's a good value for a mechanical movement, but not top of the line.
okay Dec 23, 2010
By genie The face and dial is nice. It has this expensive look to it. The problem is the lock .It kept comming off my husband wrist. This watch did not last long...after a couple of months it stop working. Well, what can I say...,it is a cheap watch.
