Depends where you look. The haves good showing in YouTube reviews.

No, they get quite some attention. Have one myself, but with the blue dial.

I think certain orients get overlooked. Their divers and the bambino get some love, but some of the other models look great and don't seem to get noticed.

Agreed

Orient is great value. “In-house” movements if that matters to you. Kamasu is an affordable diver with 200m WR. Bambino is a nice dress watch.

I think Orient are overlooked by the watch buying public, very much so.

But for enthusiasts and collectors they are much better appreciated and valued.

I imagine in Japan the warch buying public don't overlook them but in the rest of the world yes?

I believe so. Yes.

Somewhat. I think the biggest issue is that there are a lot of players in the marketspace Orient occupies, some of which offer better value per dollar, even if you have to pay just a bit more.
