Review + Strap alternative combination, this time of the affordable Orient Defender 2 field watch. This RA-AK0401L10B variant comes with a blue dial with a stunning grainy texture and a brushed metal bracelet with solid links (hollow end-links) to match the brushed stainless steel case!
This watch by Orient packs a serious punch regarding its price. Solid (& upgraded from 1st generation defender) in-house movement, 100 meters water resistance, great lume, signed screw-down crown... etc.
In addition to a review, I show you how the size of the watch compares to a Seiko SKX009, a Sinn 556A and a Citizen Nighthawk. Then, in the usual fashion, I show you how the watch sits on a variety of different straps, both off the wrist and on the wrist (all the 22mm straps I happen to have). There's leather straps, nato straps, a zulu strap, a perlon strap, a Barton Elite Silicone strap and the likes! I think you will find it useful in order to really get a feel for the scale of this watch on a slimmer (6,5 inch) wrist like mine.

This was the first time ever a watch was sent to me for review. To be completely transparent, I get to keep the watch afterwards. That being said, this watch will get the same "review-treatment" as any other watch that I've reviewed on the channel, as I think you will notice.
