I like it for a yellow dial choice on rubber or "kevlar" type strap.. Bracelet is bad in my opinion though..

I learned that from my ARVN interpreter (SGT Minh) when he would "question" the prisoners! Extremely sensitive and caring guy! At any rate, as much as I do like Orient watches, their bracelets (except for the MAKO) have always looked "cheap" to me!

Another watch CJ had and flipped so I've had the opportunity to examine this model. His was on rubber so no comment on the bracelet. Seemed like a nice alternative to its higher priced cousin. Solid in every way with excellent lume and a sweet bright dial. The one hang up I had was the bezel design. Great watch and I think you can get them reasonably.:cool:

I like it a lot, though I have a love/hate feeling about the bezel. I've seen shots where it looks pretty cool. Then I've seen others where it looks gimmicky like it's just trying to hard to stand out. If anyone has some good wristies of it, wouldn't mind seein' 'em. :)

I had at one time owned the 300 and this 200 meter model ...... The 300 meter has a cool all black bezel with white markings and the 200 has a strange two-tone bezel .... this 200 meter watch is as good as its 300 meter brother in pretty much every way, and even has the same guts inside .... BUT .... the weird bezel is something I just could NOT get used to ......To me its hideous .... and I was thinking it might grow on me , considering the 200 meter can be had for around 5 bills and I think you would do well to find the 300 for less than 1000 . Personally , and by all means remember its just my worthless opinion , but I think the 300 meter is a watch a guy should be able to purchase for 6 or 7 hundred dollars .... and the 200 should be a three hundred dollar watch .... thats just my humble opinion of what I think I can buy for that range .... and I have bought and flipped alot of watches in that range !!!

The 200m was an impulse buy for me, it came on rubber but I just happened to have a 300m bracelet laying around that I installed on it and decided it was a nice improvement. I was very biased against this model because of the bezel but in person the complicated bezel really struck me as "cool" and the addition of the 300m bracelet really completed the look. The 200m is a bit thinner than the 300m so it wears a bit nicer too.   And some other bracelet options:   wristshot:  Last edited on Sun Feb 8th, 2009 08:28 pm by OldeCrow |
