Pros & Cons
Pros
Orient watch has never abandoned making wind-up, self-winding and automatic watches. It runs on its own power without a battery and the rubber strap isn't bad.
Seiko solar divers is a great watch for a man with a small wrist. The band pinches the skin and hair on my wrist.
The blue face plays with whatever light is available and changes hue and tone, appearing almost inky black at times and then iridescent and jewel-like at others. The luminous hands (hour and minute) and the luminous markers are of quite good quality.
This watch is on the suave rather than militaristic end of the dive watch design spectrum. It presents beautifully and elegantly. I get lots of compliments on it and i love how it looks.
Even if this watch cost $150 or $175 more, i still think i'd be pretty stoked about it. This is the epitome of value, and you're getting a watch from a real watchmaker with history, instead of a watch case assembler.
Cons
Please think twice before buying an orient watch. It is very bulky to wear and uncomfortable. The color in reality is slightly darker than in the picture.
Easy setup but instructions in small print. Now it is completely unreliable and collecting dust. I think that the problem is sluggish winding mechanism.

The orient mako is the best value for any watch out there on the market
This watch is a great deal comparing to the seiko models at more than twice the price
