“Just bought this watch on a whim and I loved it. It's got everything you need in a diver for an excellent price. Only downsides I can think of are the lume doesn't stay bright for very long, but it stays visible throughout the night and the bezel is pretty hard to turn. Other than that it's a beautiful Submariner-esque diver.”
“The watch arrived in a nice box, looks good, and keeps time down to the minute. I have not had the chance to immerse it in a pool yet, so cannot comment on the water resistance but the crown feels good.”
“I bought the Orient Ray II with "Bond" Nato Strap recently after seeing Marc's Youtube video on the Gen II Mako's and Ray's. I needed a good everyday watch.
I couldn't be happier, both with the watch/strap and Long Island Watch's service. Really happy!
The Ray runs a bit fast at +40 seconds/day, but THAT's THE BEST PART: Orient Gen II's with the F69 calibre hand wind but also have hacking seconds, and I really like setting my watch to atomic time precision to the second.
Great on Orient for coming out with the Gen II movements, and Long Island Watch for selling them.”
“The watch looks and feels quality, right down to the impressive packaging and manual that Orient sends. I’m very happy I did my research while shopping for dive watches. This Orient is a winner for sure! I most likely will be adding more of their watches to my lineup.”
“I have had my Orient Ray II Black Dial Automatic Dive Watch with SS Bracelet for a year now and I am amazed at the quality and value. Applied indices and day date feature...it's a no-brainer plus Marc takes care of business...in fact I have purchased 2 additional watches from LIW. The Defender and Bambino both from Orient. I may buy the blue dial Ray because it looks so good!”
“I heard many great things about this company, so I decided that I would trust them with my first automatic watch purchase. Buying the watch knowing it was brand new was a huge deal to me, so I wanted to have a reliable retailer. First off, the watch arrived in a timely manner. It was packaged well and the watch case was properly protected. Second off, the case was in perfect condition as a full set. Third, the watch was in perfect condition. Everything I was hoping for was made a reality. My new ray ii already has a few scuffs because I love wearing it so much. The bezel is even perfectly aligned! At first the movement ran +15 a day, but as I’m breaking it in it is currently operating at +4 a day which is absolutely fantastic. Give mark your business and he will not disappoint.”
