 I hand wind my Orients and Seikos by shaking them for about 15 - 30 seconds..........it's much quicker than the other way....not to mention when changing watches every day, you don't need to insure it has a full "power wind".  I guess that's why they call them "automatics"!  When I get nostalgic for handwinding, I grab one of my Trias Untias or Poljot's. :D

I'd have to say they are all pretty equal as far as reliability. But, I believe the Orient watches have proven to be a tad more accurate than the Miyota. I almost never pay any attention to accuarcy (personally) as I am always changing watches. So, I do favor the Miyota due to its ability to be hand wound.
