For two years resetting the time on my automatic Seiko had become a tiresome weekly ritual. Some friends at a watch collectors forum introduced me this watch, so I took a chance and ordered it. When it arrived I was amazed by its heft and finish, especially considering its price. So far, the accuracy has been outstanding.
I purchased the watch from Long Island Watch, an authorized dealer, the watch arrived quickly, with all the warranty materials.
Another Orient will be on my wish list soon.

Ill keep this brief.
This is defintely a slick looking watch. Despite the cheap metal band provided (which I promptly replaced with a NATO G10 strap) this watch it pretty good looking.
It served me well for 4 months and then it suddenly started keeping horrible time, losing minutes in very small periods.
I would not recommend this wath for practical purposes, but it looks good if you just want something cool looking on your wrist.

This is the Orient CEM65001B (Black on Black), theres a Blue on Blue version as well: CEM65002D
This watch is a solid masterpiece. It is so solid, and so well-made, you wont believe how little you paid for it---a comparable Swiss piece would have cost at least $350.00 more.
It has proven itself reliable to me, and its a dressy dive watch. Let me tell you about the lume--very bright green.
Its one of Orients best, and so so affordable.
I am sure you will love it, and it makes the perfect gift.

I love Orient watches because they are 100% japanese. They are not made in Singapore, Malayasia, Hong Kong, or China. Nothing wrong with that, but a product from Japan is top notch quality. The Orient 200m is Automatic (In-house movement). Has a nice finish. Mineral crystal. Day-date. Day only push botton changer. Honestly, this push botton doesnt make any sense. In any case, the push botton should be made to change the date, not the day. As you know some months carry 28, 30, and 31 days. If I wear the watch all the time, I will not have any need to change days, but the date you need to making you unscrew the crown, just like any other automatic watch. Solid bracelet without extension. OD: 40mm x 13.5mm. Weight: 168-grams. This watch is a dressy sub and in black looks serious. Nice luminous hands and markers. All I can say is that, I cant wait to purchase my next Orient.
