i'm not interested in quartz, only automatic watches. i own one seiko 5 , a bit similar to the model above but the accuracy is bad even after regulated by a watch shop. gave up on it now, and bought Oreint Mako (black) at about RM400 - way above my expectation: in 7 days it is only -10 seconds

attached some photos of mine, sorry for poor image quality (using handphone camera).

how much did the shop charge to regulate ur seiko 5?

it is free, because my wife knows him...

I dont think can just base on own experience ... Some ppl also claim super accuracy from their 7s26 wat.

ya my old monster iirc was running about +8 or 9s / day...which is well within the 7s26 specs.

i'm not saying all 7s26 are not accurate, maybe it's just my bad luck having a lemon. but when i first looked at the Mako, and read about the raving reviews on it's accuracy, i thought why not give it a try? I did consider Monster also, but that is at almost twice the price, and Mako's style is less aggressive which can be use as a dress watch, i was sold on it la... in future i'm considering to get Monster or 007.

Any guesses what this might be?

Expanding your portfolio ka?

Dun understand - are you just trying to point out the obvious ah? I never attempted to confuse anyone; the sources are all there.

@sniper, no lah, just happened to correlate with something else. Thought it'd be interesting to try something different, but 550D does crap in low-light.

lol.
just wondering why u ask what it is...like u dunno...but actually u already know

Err, I think you misunderstood my context only

Anyway; yeah. 01.02-M and 03.05-M was in the same case. Pics turned out quite horrid.

Just another ETA 2894-2 with a different name.

Rewind a bit back up... looking again at the Orient that Chopin posted.

Is it really necessary to have that quickset date button there? I mean it sorta like throws out the whole proportion of the watch.

they want to make it look like a helium valve

went g-factory just now.. fell in love with this

any lovers?

No. Orient does make other calibers with single crown and quickset day and date.
I believe they still make these since they are still popular and in demand.

Seiko did stop production of Seiko 5 during the quartz revolution in the 80's for a short period but brought it back because it was and till today still in demand.

Out of proportion? Yes. But aren't almost all watches the same with the crown and pushers on one side?
Even our faces are asymmetrical.

the gshock right now that i like is their new aviator - GWA1000.

that is nice!!.. red always go right with black...will go check that model out..
