This is NICE, Chris!

Seems like I'm drawn more to black-dialed divers!

Nice watch!  I was inspired by your photo and just ordered one for myself (the full lume dial version).  When did this model come out?  It must be recent, because I had not see it before your post.  ThumbsUp02.gif

Big Congrats, ChrisThumbsup3.gif.

That watch reminds me of a Kremke. I love that dial and amazing lume. Enjoy it in good health.

Chris, love it!  The look is great and very clean, but as a pilot I would prefer to see a 13 to 24 bezel so that ZULU/GMT (which all flight plans are in could be easily figured, or a "count-down" bezel rather than the standard diver bezel so that fuel tanks could be timed more easily.

EDIT:  BTW, what vendor and price tag...can't seem to find it on google.

Hi Ken - dunno what vendor and price, but here are the pics and specs off the Orient website:

Discussion on another forum:

$140?? Bargain! Must have been a "50% off" day!

Cheers - Ian ThumbsUp02.gif

Ordered mine from http://www.orientwatchusa.com. It's in transit right now. Seems the 30% off sale is gone for the time being, though.

Ken

it came right from Mark after they got done taking pictures and youtube video of it! I just borrowed it as it turns out, it had a wardrobe malfunction in the day wheel so I sent it back after only a few quick shots of it!

working ones are available through orientwatchusa in the racing section but you might want to wait for a coupon! :)

Chris...thanks.  It's a nice watch @ $140 but not at $275.  Funny, I put the model # in at that site and it continuously came up with "not found"....I think they need a little work!  I think I'll wait for a coupon....I also like it much better on the strap...let me know if you see one!

Hysterical videos, BTW!

That lume is great.  About how long does it last?

I got one of these, partly on the basis of this great lume shot. Unfortunately, what the lume shot doesn't show is the atrocious yellow color lume on the numbers. Also, they removed the awkward day pusher, but now the watch has no quick-set on the day at all!crap.gif
