5 stars ... Not 3
I'm lucky enough to own a good number of watches which cost many times the price of this. But it's still one of.my favourites, and gets some love. One of the bramds that first drew me into watch- whoring many, many years ago, and still I think one of the best bang -for-buck names outside of Ali Express. Can't capture it here, but when the dial catches the light at certain angles, it reminds.me of the aftermath of a stellar explosion. 🌟🪐

Gorgeous Orient 👌🏻
Took me forever to track down mine, such good looking watches for the price point.
It’s like everything on life. Not the most expensive are always better. I love vintage orients
The 3 star is so affordable but it's actually the most fun Orient in that lower price tier. You don't need to worry wearing it at all. Some people even go swimming with it despite the 50 meter water resistance and the 3 star just keeps going. It's very robust for a mechanical watch and all the different dial variations and colors make it a more interesting budget choice than the Bambino.

I've also got a vintage one (late70s), which needs a full service/repair. I should stop buying new watches and get it seen to really...
