A great replacement!

After my tissot seastar 1000 conked, was looking for a good diver on a budget.

Was on the fence about the Orient Kamasu, but with such good reviews, I pulled the trigger on it.

Very satisfied with this! To my rudimentary eyes, no defects. The dial is gorgeous! The bezel is great: satisfying action and easy to rotate.

Everyone said the bracelet sucks. Honestly, I think its pretty decent! Will probably replace it with a rubber strap or a mesh bracelet, just for taste reasons.

But overall, man this is execellent! I love Seiko, but a sapphire crystal, 200 meters WR, mechanical movement and a screw down crown at 230 bucks is something I cannot find in the Seiko cataloague at this price. My search started with looking for Seikos but this clearly won!

Strongly recommend this!

Ps: I know the Kamasu doesnt need my endorsement, its an enthusiast favorite already. For anyone considering this, just get it! And, sorry about the crap pictures.

Agreed! The Kamasu II dials look better in person than in any of their photos
