Joma has some really nice prices on both Orient lines at present.

Yes, their prices are great Travis. I've got this one on my watch list:

I really like it a lot, possibly my next watch if I buy another one. And the Orient prices make Seiko look, well, a little high.

One would be hard pressed to find a better dress watch t the price of the OS offerings at grey market sale.

Haven’t seen the one you like before. Looks great.

These are selling new on eBay for $100 more.

Only thing I'm not sure about is the mismatch between the colours of the hands and indices.

I think that just may be an issue with the photo. Looks to match here?

Can't argue with a word of that.

Well spotted. But is that the same watch? The movement on the OWUSA site appears to be decorated but not on Jomashop.

The prices at OWUSA are Invicta-flated.

Is, I believe, the same watch with the exact same movement. Joma is notorious for TERRIBLE photos.

Have only owned a handful of OS and all had nicely decorated movements. Until the Seiko Presage Sharp Edge series popped up, OS was as close as one could get from Seiko Epson, at a reasonable price, to GS.

Cool. Cheers mate. I've been watching that one for a while now. Seems to be a really nice watch, more or less just what I'm looking for. Not at the Presage level I know, but still a nice piece. I had an OS300 a while back and it was outstanding.
