Very nice

Don't see them around much anymore 

I can see you have a different bracelet on it and maybe the red 50 numerals??

Anything else?

Yeah for sure, not a watch you see much these days. I put a double domed sapphire crystal, new bezel and insert, and a strapcode bracelet, 22mm to 18mm. I had a 24hr blue/purple bezel insert and was hoping the DD would be enough rise but no, rookie mistake. I'll add a before and after pic.

Looks good

I like the look of the non 24hr bezel better... but not my watch

The sapphire crystal will be a real upgrade

Yeah I didn't like either, put that black 12hr back in. I put domed Sapphire crystals in all 4 of my Orients. Replaced the flat sapphire in my green Kamasu, put it in a Ray, and it's killer!!! Put a BOR on and she's 👌

I'm after one of these early Makos. As other people have said they are pretty rare these days. I have a teal Kamasu which I love but I'm feeling I might end up with a few more Orient divers. Would you recommend?
