Wrist Check

more_vert
Today’s wrist-check is my Orient Capital Version 2. My wife bought this for me a few months ago as a spur of the moment gift. Like the Orient Bambino line of watches, this watch is a very affordable alternative when looking for a stylish dress watch. With a case size of 40.5mm it wares nicely, not too flashy, and  its thin size allows it to slip under the cuff with ease. The black dial has a bit of grey in it, just enough to give it an almost aged look next to the muted white numerals. I’m not a big fan of roman numerals but the hight (or length) of these printed numerals distracts nicely as they almost appear as regular baton-like hour markers at first glance. Also, the added touch of the black background behind the white numbers in the date window is awesome! You can’t truly appreciate that black-out look of a date window by viewing pictures, you have to see it with your own eyes. My plans of owning a Bambino is still alive as it remains on my short list of dress watches to buy in the near future, but this Orient Capital Vesrion 2 will surely fill the void for now.

That's a nice looking piece! The dial kinda reminds me of the Seiko Presage Enamel. I am glad it has a 22mm lug width opposed to Bambino's 21mm. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy!

She seems like just the sort of wife a watch guy should have!
