I have 2 so far. The blue Mako and the CFT00004B circular semi-skeleton racing. I'm thinking of adding a CEZ05003B semi-skeleton carbon fiber dial, I saw one at my local watch shop at a great price. I'm just not sure if I want to own 2 watches from the same series.
I'm wondering how durable these watches are. Are they going to last at least 20 years? |

Well, Orient has been around since 1950 and before that, since 1901. My parents had Orient automatics in the 1970s and those watches were as good as they are today.
Currently I have 5 Orients in my collection.... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Any watch will last you for as long as you take reasonably care of it... |

I have Blue Mako, Orange Mako, 2ER blue (given to my brother last Xmas), and a quartz chrono.

I had 4, but down to 2 now. They are nice, but I probably won't be getting another Orient until they come out with something that hand-winds in addition to having a power reserve meter and hacking seconds.

anyone own or seen one of these in person? the dial looks awesome, and the yellow is a cool contrast, 44mm x 12.5mm, Sapphire, only thing I'm unsure of is whether I like the black coating? Orient doesn't say but I am assuming its pvd?
