QUOTE(deftons @ Apr 19 2016, 04:34 PM) Between SKX007 and Orient Ray, which would be a better choice in terms of fit & finish and reliability of movement? pick skx007j for - better case built and detail (the cut and lug curve line across the case) - blacken cannon pinion (k - bright silver/gold) but for your concern on: - thickness (even a mm thicker than sumo) - movement (not windable)

I compared both k & j side by side before I decided to get the j. Those were what I noticed, it is very obvious once u spotted it. But then it could be different batch of movement build.

Legit. I ordered a couple of watches (Citizen, Seiko, Casio) from them long time ago. Super quick delivery via FedEx / UPS. One of it, bought it in 2008 if my memory serves me right. Still running strong
