This is one of my favorite watches. I think this is one of the nicest looking watches available from any brand and I like the case size for my wrist. I think this is much nicer looking than other Orient including the Mako, Ray and Kamasu. The Kamasu is a higher quality watch in some areas but it has that very ugly bezel that I can't get past. I don't mind the hollow end links or plated metal clasp, or even the fake oyster bracelet because these all can lower the price of the watch. I would like to have sapphire but with a crystal this large it would probably add quite a bit to the price. So it's a question of buying a higher quality watch that is very ugly, or a less expensive watch that you like to look at that might have some limitations.

It's a fantastic watch, just got the limited edition white one, over the moon. One of my favourites pieces 9/10

@@watchreviews4k Thank you, too.

Love the watch especially because it's on the bigger side 💪👍😎

Great review as always, John. This is a good looking piece and at that price point is definitely a contender for any collection. Having said that, I do think that if one was prepared to spend just a little bit more, they would quite easily find a piece with considerably better specification. Regards

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching Mario. Glad you enjoyed it. Agreed, they could have easily upgraded to; solid end links, milled clasp, lume pip, sapphire crystal. Collectors would be willing to pay £250-300 for these enhancements. A better option is the Kamasu on a Strapcode Oyster bracelet. Sapphire crystal with solid end links and milled clasp then. Or alternatively a Seiko 5KX on a Strapcode as another option. The bezel action on the 5KX felt much better than on this Kano. It's strange the Kamasu's bezel action is better than the Kano's as they are similar £200 price tier pieces. Regards.

i have 6.5 inch wrist and the watch looks perfect on me. i have the red bezel, black dial, rubber strap. Also, mine doesnt have crown stem problems and backlash.

Thank you John, I will see if it fits on my wrist also 😅

Very good review and excellent points. The crown on my Kano fell off after 3 months...

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching. Glad you enjoyed my content. Sorry to hear that regarding your crown. Regards, #WR4K

Thoroughly enjoyed your honest warts and all review of this piece, and as usual you come to a very fair conclusion Sir 👍 Tam.

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching Tam. Glad you enjoyed it. As I said in the review; for £200 I prefer the Kamasu or Seiko 5KX. Regards.

Orient is cutting Costs and increasing his Profit. - Although this is soooo beautiful and stylish.

Thank you for watching Achim. Regards.

It’s a pity the quality isn’t up to scratch on this one. I really like the look of this watch but I agree for the money the Seiko 5KX is a better spec watch. Another great review.

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching Ross. I bought one of these last year for my own personal collection; as I also like the look of it. The poor bezel action meant I returned it for refund. I wanted to review another one to see if Orient had improved it; and make others aware of the defect. I prefer the coin edged bezel on the Kano to the Kamasu; but overall the Kamasu is a better quality/value watch for similar money. The 5KX (which I have also reviewed) is better build quality. Yes, it only has a push/pull crown rather than the screw down crown of the SKX007; but it feels more solid and reliable. I also really like the new smooth bezel version of the 5KX. It reminds me of the Black Bay 41. Difficult to choose between a Kamasu v 5KX as they are both good pieces for circa £200. Regards.

Thx for the video, really like the kano design, but for £50 extra you can get the RA-AC0K01B10B (Neptune lite) which is on another level.

[@specialized41]

You need better illumination for your video, is too dark.

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching. This was one of my early videos. I have since upgraded the lighting. Regards.

[@lalolalo1233]

Got the black version and not happy about the lume. The markers and second hand arrow tip lume it's weak, basically need to be charged with a flashlight to see it perform compared to the hour and minute hand which it's on most of the time and all night. Did I get a defected one or is it like that by designed?

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching. That is the way they are usually. Wear yours in good health. Regards.

[@lalolalo1233]

@@watchreviews4k Thanks for the quick reply. Yeah, that's what keeps me from loving it, not to mention the lack of sapphire crystal. But it is a budget diver with a nice movement. Nice honest review of this blue version with the metal strap. Got mine for $140 so not too bad.

[@MsBricktop80]

Nice Diver! :)

It's not nickel plated...

[@watchreviews4k]

The clasp interior is nickel plated. The exterior is stainless steel. Regards, #WR4K
