The watch arrived today and initial impression is very favorable. I had previously ordered an Orient Mako and "multi-eye" and in my opinion this one is clearly a step or two above in terms of quality. The dial in particular really exudes quality and looks like it could belong on something much more expensive.
I've never had a watch with GMT function so it'll be a while before I decide if it's a useful complication, but it's certainly pretty cool to have. I'm pretty sure the power reserve meter will be useful though. This watch does not hand-wind so having a power indicator takes the guesswork out of how many swings it takes to keep it decently charged.
This watch carries a $650 MSRP and I think it's well worth that when compared with other watches of similar quality. Getting it at 50% off makes it that much better.smile8.gif
