    just open that baby up and try to have fun regulating it.

    I am considering getting myself one of those timing machines to play around with regulating couple of my beaters.
    Chronic flipper...

    That's exactly what I was thinking. A friend of mine did the same thing with his cheap eBay watch.

    Nope, automatic. Even hacks, which surprised me.

    I just don't see anything redeeming about this one.

    "Orkina" just makes me think of Orkin.
    Elitist much? I've seen people on here buy worse... he bought it as a beater... not like he came here claiming it was a super nice watch and that its quality surpasses that of a $200 piece.

    I think there's an app available for that, if you've got an iPhone. Can't for the life of me remember what it's called.

    Nice little pick up for $25. It wouldn't be too much trouble to whip the back off and regulate it.

    It's probably the same watch with a different "brand" on the dial.
