Orient M-Force Limited Edition Automatic Dive Watch

I just received my Orient M-Force SEL03003B Limited Edition Automatic Dive Watch today.

The limited edition model, of which this is #857 of 1000, features a very elegant padded box, an extra polyurethane band, a carbon fiber dial, a race themed power indicator,  and an etched back case which features the STI team’s finish in the Nurburgring 24 hour race.

In addition to the extra goodies that come with the limited edition issue, the M-Force also has the 22 jewel Orient 40N5A movement, a 4o hour power reserve, a anti-reflective sapphire crystal, water resistant to 200m, and a case diameter of 46mm (the dial itself is probably around 37mm).  Also, the second hand stops when the crown is pulled out, and the movement is able to be wound by hand.

The metal band seems well made, solid, and comfortable, and the clasp is a fold over, double push button variety.  Lastly, the hands and numerals glow brightly even in a partly lit room, as is the case with all the Orient watches I own.
