 I took advantage of Orient USA's 30% off and purchased the Mako XL. I chose the blue dial version, and it turned out to be the right choice. This is my first Orient, and I must say this is one solid watch. Even the box it came in was on par with with some high end models. I attempted to take some pics, but as usual they turned out less than mediocre.

The watch is a 200 meter watch with a screw down crown, and a separate push button for a quick date change. It has a nice solid 22mm bracelet with a heavy clasp. The bezel feels good and is uni-directional with 60 clicks. I have already purchased a second Orient.
