My first foray into watches
Orient who? Never heard of them, but YouTubers rated them. So this modded Mako with domed sapphire for £120 shouted “Buy me”. Its a business-like appearance with a sporty red second hand. Is the day date necessary? Maybe not, but if there’s an underrated steel automatic at Casio prices, this is it.

Hi, I’m a newbie to collecting, although I’ve been into watches since I was 7, I recently acquired a couple of vintage automatics, and got the watch bug. I added this Hamilton, G-Shock Solar, and Seik...

Glad you found your way there - they fly v low under the radar. A watch enthusiast’s watch.
First automatic watch, and watch in general I purchased off this "new" site called Amazon back in '07... 😂.
Still runs great, and love the offset day pusher.
Bottom pic is with my first Singlepass Bond, purchased off a very basic looking java script/flash animation CountyComm website that same year 😂.
One of my favorites.
