This Orient Star will make my third Orient Watch, each of which provides great value at a great price.<\/p>\n
Overall, I’d have to rate this as my tied with my Accutron Gemini as one of my favorite automatic watches.<\/p>\n
Of the many positive aspects of this watch is its dial.\u00a0 Upon close inspection, one finds a lot of understated detail on the slightly cream dial.\u00a0 The subdials consist of a power reserve indicator, a date display, and a retrograde day dial.<\/p>\n
The bezel is a combination of polished and brush stainless steel.\u00a0 The band is comfortable and utilizes a dual button release clasp.<\/p>\n
The back of the watch features a mineral crystal window which exposes a slightly decorated counterweight.<\/p>\n
One final touch that makes this a great watch?\u00a0 Lume.\u00a0 This watch shines brightly at the slightest hint of darkness and lasts for hours.\u00a0 Other watches truly make me miss the radium that was used when I was a kid.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
