Orient Men's "Sun and Moon Version 4" Japanese Automatic Stainless Steel Watch

So after doing some research, I passed on Swiss movement in favor of Japanese because of their famed "best value for money" approach to watches. I've heard very good things about Orient, and I have to say it is very good for the price I paid. Not only is it an automatic movement, but the build quality is excellent, the design is superb, and the leather strap... Which most watch makers go cheap on... Is probably the best quality leather I've seen on a watch. Orient also uses sapphire crystal when even comparable Seiko uses hardlex crystal, which is good but not as scratch resistant. It does not look cheap and it's a really beautiful strap. It is very hard to find a watch for this price that has day of the month, week, moonphase/sun, all in one. If you are looking for moderately priced watches to coordinate with suits and belt combos, and need a variety of strap colors and watch designs without spending thousands, definitely look into orient watches... Their history of quality watches clearly comes out with this watch and many others.

Beautiful watch. Better than what I expected. The only thing I would do is to change the way the watch band faces. Feels like it should be worn on the right wrist instead of the left. Overall I really love the watch.

This watch is beautiful in person. Has a fun whimsy design and feels and operates as an extremely high quality piece. It's a very versitle watch and I'm excited to try it with other bands. The band it comes with has an excellent deployant clasp, but I find the material itself not to my liking.

Stunning watch, the best version of sun and moon. full satisfaction.

If you like a big watch this is for you. Big for a dress watch but still very nice. Impressed by Orient products.

First Orient to my collection. Beautiful watch. Perfect for everyday business casual wear for work. Only complaint is the case thickness at 14mm is a bit much for my taste.

Beautiful watch, great quality. Technically a men's size, but I bought it as a gift for my girlfriend and it was a hit. Looks great even on her small wrist.

This watch is my second Orient mechanical, I wanted a larger case and the additional features/complications. Overall though I was disappointed. One thing to point out, this is not a moonphase watch, rather the sun/moon basically acts a as a fancy 24-hour indicator (sun during the day, moon at night) Pros: The face is large but attractive and comfortable, the date is easy to read and the day of the week subdial is nice. Cons: the individual dial ticks are very small dots and very hard to read. I found the band to be uncomfortable, a lot of metal digging into my wrist. Lastly, the mechanism is very inaccurate. I don't expect chronometer level of accuracy with a watch of this cost but I found the movement gained 20+ seconds a day typically which for me is just too much. Having to hack adjust the time every two days is annoying for a watch that costs around $300.
