Default How many Orient watch do you own?

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 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.

CFA05002B


CFT00006W

Any mechanical watch can easily last an owners lifetime if it is given regular maintenance. Keep the seals in good condition and that dial and hands will look like new 30 years from now.

Default Re: How many Orient watch do you own?

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?

CEZ05001B
