“Purchased on the 7-th, dispatched on the 10th, delivered on the 21-st. Two weeks between payment and collection. Not too bad.
Reasonably priced at around £200 in total (£196.27 to be exact) including shipping and UK customs charge.
Only worn the watch for just a couple of days since I got it, but the first impression is positive. Bezel is a bit stiff. The AR coating is not as impressive and the seconds hand is not as smooth as on my Mondaine Automatic. However considering the price of the piece I can't really complain.
This was my first purchase from this dealer and I may use this website again in the future, but I thought I should mention that the "My Account" and "Login" links at the top are pointed to insecure locations (http). I had to manually modify the URL before logging in. Also, the PayPal payment option is not obvious straightaway. Had my card rejected twice (because it didn't use "Verified by Visa") before I realised I could just use PayPal instead.”
“Having researched Seiko's, Christopher Ward, Deep Blue, Squale etc. I'm extremely pleased When I finally chose the Orient. Delivery was excellent, just 10 days to the UK. Price excellent despite recent unfavourable £/$ exchange rate. Gorgeous blue dial, chunky feel, good lume. It's a watch for all occasions or no occasions at all. Delighted.”
