Fine watch, lousy description and price     On: 2007-06-24

The Orient Star line is one of the higher quality Orient lines... though thats not to say it is the equivalent of a fine swiss watch. Orient is one of the oldest watchmakers in Japan and, unlike Seiko, Citizen, and others, never jumped on the quartz bandwagon in a big way. This Orient watch, like all the others in my collection is an automatic, self-winding mechanical movement. A pretty nice one from all accounts and not to be confused with cheap Chinese watches whether sourced from Hong Kong, Germany, or other confusing swiss-sounding companies. With Orient you get what you pay for,,, a solid, quality product. I felt compelled to write this review when I read the listing -- it is NOT a quartz movement and it SHOULD NOT sell for $900+ which is more than double the street price for this item. Buy this watch somewhere else for ~$400 and you cant go wrong.
