Orient Men's 'Mako II' Japanese Automatic Stainless Steel Diving Watch, Diving Watch

Product Information

With the Orient Mako, watch enthusiasts worldwide are the ones that benefited the most as there is an alternative to the Seiko SKX007& SKX009in the budget diving watch section. The Kamasu gets an arrow hours hand while the Mako 3 has a sword hours hand. Another major difference between the two is the crystal: sapphire for Kamasu and mineral for Mako III. This is the main reason why the Kamasu is more expensive than the Mako. This Orient Star watch has 24 jewels and runs on a 40S60 caliber. Orient isn’t afraid to move away from traditional styles as well. The bracelet is brushed and has friction-based pushpins and was simple enough to size. The deployment clasp is stamped rather than machined, with micro adjustment holes to help you get the perfect fit. In practical usage, I find the clasp small and unobtrusive, conforming to the wrist, without digging into the skin. Strap Suggestions This advancement was a breakthrough in the watch industry. This sped up and enabled the production of more accurate and cost-efficient pieces.

It’s incredibly affordable, has a great look, and has the basic features needed for a professional diving accessory.It's hard to know exactly how many watches are sold every year for a certain model. Watchmakers are usually pretty secretive about this kind of information as it would be an open invitation to copy the highest-selling model. The Orient Bambino Open Heart has been a CROWD FAVORITE due to its clever open-heart design. The intricate movement of its F6T22 caliber is seen through the small round cut in the watch’s dial pad.

Anything else can be made from any of the factories of Orient located in different countries. Is the bezel of the Orient Mako II scratch-resistant? All in all, this is a pretty typical dive watch case design. At this price, very few manufacturers put much effort or R&D into the case design or level of finish, so I can’t fault it here, but I do appreciate how Orient will still attempt to go even slightly above and beyond with the design itself. Dimensions, Comfort, Wearability The Orient 46943 was born and has been in continued production since. The 46943 was already 30 years old when it debuted in the original 2004 Orient Mako, so the inclusion of the new Orient F6922 caliber in the Orient Mako II is huge news. Before we start talking about specific functions, let’s compare movement specs at a high level.

Moreover, the SSB359 has millisecond markers found in the chapter ring of the watch. This watch from Orient made its way to the hearts of the diving community because of its price point and the fact that it comes with all distinct features of a genuine dive watch: luminous hands and indices, a screw-down crown, and a one-way rotating bezel. Movement and ISO Certifications The Orient Kamasu II case is made of 316L stainless steel.
