Never buying Orient again. Bought this Ray 2 through MD, and it was not even calibrated at factory. The range of +/- time gained/lost each day is pretty wide, but my watch was gaining twice the spec'd time. Straight from the factory, was not even checked (apparently no QC at Orient). So, I embarked on the warranty repair shortly after buying, sent it in via USPS (about $8) to mail it to Orient. Two and half months later, Orient emails telling me they are holding the watch hostage unless I pay them $16 to mail it back to me. Really, defective watch from start, should've been caught at factory that it was WAY out of spec (used WatchCheck app to track). Not very pleased with this watch. BTW, the watch band adjustment screws are super-tiny, so my set of screwdrivers can't remove the screw, either. So, if you want watch band adjusted smaller, you might have to pay jeweler to do that, factor that into your cost/value of an Orient watch.

Drew.fIt's a cheap movement, but that doesn't mean the rest of Orient models are equally bad. If you want an Orient diver without all the quality issues, the Triton is the way to go. It has the same movement in it that their $2,000 USD pro saturation diver has, and you can get one for about $400 USD. I've had mine since last August and it's a massive step above the cheap-o Ray and Mako models (which, to be honest, are entry-level, so one can expect quality issues on some pieces).
