Incoming: Orient Star Oreo WZ0071DG

Post by anonymous-3027 » December 1st 2022, 11:06am

I usually prefer to get full collector kit but this model comes up so rarely now. Plus it came on a leather strap originally and I do have a spare signed buckle

They look pretty nice on mesh.

There was a range of watches with similar motif

I think those with the bullseye 🎯 are the best.

Those old Orient bracelets can be a bit janky. Good choice to put on leather. Congratulations! Cool watch I haven't seen before.
The WZ0071DG originally came on black leather which is a perfect look for this one.

This model has some cachet among OS guys, where a common nickname is Oreo, despite it actually being a bullseye style

Or it somehow reminds you of your favorite cock ring?
If it was a 65mm case, maybe.
Seriously, these are one of the most liquid OS

There is always a buyer for one of these at prevailing rate, instantly sellable if priced at that point.

Like a yellow hand winding hacking OS300. Even the non hand winding non hacking ones move quickly

Anyhow, I can’t off hand think of an OS you could move substantially quicker than this one

All the other ones in the series gave no special interest or following, just the bullseye black white dial one

The mesh bracelet adds vintage elegance. πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ
Overall, it rocks the elegance vibe, the look is perfect with a tux.

The only problem is that it is a little thick to really work well with French cuffs. I’d really like to see this as a thin manual wind only like the OS WZ0011DD

These are quite nice and fairly common on secondary market
