I suppose it is a spring bar. All you need it those smaller flat head screw driver to remove strap.Need to test it out. Looks good enough |

I always thought we need to go over to the shop to get it done. I shall replace mine with the Hirsch Liberty straps then and some NATO. |

Hi guys....just found this thread....erm......i am wearing Orient watch also but i think is kinda of old fashion as its a gift from my grand father long long time ago (around year 198x) can consider as antic?? my mom gave it to me last two years when she is tidying her safe...
then when i went to change the battery, the technician told me that this watch has no more spare part don't spoil it as there will be no replacement parts. This post has been edited by H.O.P.E: Feb 6 2014, 04:14 PM |

dont really care about the 'stars'.
the new saturation diver basically has the orient star movement in it which can hack and wind, unlike the 'stars' version. |
