In my opinion, Orient has some really good movments and technology, but their watch designs are really boring. I really want an Orient watch, and I've looked at everything they put out on their Japanese website: it's super dull and repetitive. I'm guessing that all their industrial designers are older Japanese men? They need to follow the lead of Japanese car manufacturers and hire a studio full of European, American, and, god forbid, Chinese designers. Open an overseas design studio, perhaps.
Fiyta puts out a lot of over-the-top stuff, but at least they're trying, and there are hits and misses. But I'd be much more willing to buy an Orient watch than a Chinese watch. Yet Orient manages to make even skeleton watches super pedestrian. To be honest, Seiko's stuff is also mostly dull, in the Japanese market at least, but they still have a lot of appealing designs.

Street price seems to be around $250 for this Orient, so $199 isn't a bad price, $159 - $170 would be a no-brainer. If I didn't have so many Orients, I might be in on this one, but it would just duplicate some that I already own.

I don't claim to be a watch expert, so forgive me if this sounds ignorant, but a non-hacking, non-manual-wind watch with midlevel vibrations watch for $200 dollars seems steep. What am I missing?

What else do you collect? My number one vice is Apple devices: approximately four dozen iPhones, iPods, iPads, AppleTVs, Macbooks, Mac Minis, iMacs, and MacPros. My six 2008 MacPro 3,1 computers are the worst - all are highly upgraded and they consume so much energy they double as space heaters. Fortunately, my wife has been bitted by the collecting bug as well, so she allows me to indulge my obsession.

AUTigerFanI am a landscape photographer now (just retired from my day job), and have collected photographs/prints for years. Also collect fountain pens/inks, vinyl/cd/sacds--you name it, if I get into it, I collect it. Ironically, I have learned the markets, values of items, how to research them, the dealers, etc.---but I don't buy much anymore. For me, the chase of collecting has informed my tastes and I know pretty much if an item is worth researching or not. I am grateful to other photographers, who have helped me with my photography/print collecting. These days, with the internet, there really is no excuse for not doing your homework.
