This is a classically “clean” and elegant design. I like the features of smaller size and lighter weight for a watch intended for more refined occasions. What a great item for a “life event” gift. I will definitely place this watch on my list for a future purchase.

Cassie to be honest, your review is right on except for 1 major item, Patek Philippe has the hunter case. This is a major item for a person who actually uses a pocket watch. In the early days, men wore vest and that is where they put their watches. Look at a wonderful life and you will notice that the banker has his watch on a chain in his vest pocket. Now today, few people actually wear a vest. So where does the watch go, into a pants pocket with everything else in there. With a mineral crystal hitting against coins, keys, leaning on desk, then just isn’t any protection for the crystal to keep it from getting scratched or cracked. Yes I do agree for the money the Orient is a steal for a quality mechanical pocket watch, however one will have to be careful to prevent damage to it. I have and wear the 3 different pocket watches I have. However this only occurs when I have on my vest. That is where the watch goes is into the watch pocket. Of course a person that can afford an expensive watch should be able to afford to keep it looking proper as well. Just my thoughts. Keep up the good work and love the Orient watches.
