I’ve been eyeing this one. As I was looking at it online my girlfriend says “That looks like that red Tudor” ....I nearly fainted from love haha

If only it was a little bit smaller.

Nice review Aron and cool offering from Orient. 44mm size looks great on your wrist. Glad to hear you tried it on one of our straps too!

I love Orient. Amazing value and beautiful watches. Build quality is usually impeccable too. I modded my blue Ray II with a double domed sapphire crystal, a coin-edge bezel, and a fully loomed sapphire bezel insert. I picked up a Strapcode bracelet for it too. I really couldn't be happier with the watch. Very reliable movement as well. I've had it over a year now and it consistently runs at +4 seconds a day.

Just got this watch yesterday. I love it very much. Quality wise its above par. The rubber strap is very smooth and comfortable. This watch is gonna see a lot of wrist time eventhough i have other expensive watches.

My Mako XL has been my “go to” non-work watch a lot lately and I really am looking forward to getting a Kamasu as well as a Kano. Orient just makes a great looking watch and they are so super value driven. Very much in love with Orient.

I've been a fan for years. Very nice watches for the money. It's ridiculous what you can get a mako or ray 2 for these day!! Cheers buddy 😎👍

Great review! Comprehensive and well laid out which helps potential buyers like myself!

For me, I love that red colour especially when the day is also in red. And being JDM (and so having a Kanji option) sweetens the deal too.

Sapphire is a must for me now. I have several Seiko's with hardlex, no issues at all, but when I picked up a Sumo, I noticed a scratch on the crystal within only a few days of wear. For that reason, I rarely wear it now.

Receiving this bad boy this week and really looking forward to it. Enjoyed your vid.

Aron Dunlap-OFD Watch Channel has it a week now and I gotta say that this is a really solid watch with really nothing to gripe about at all. My second orient (blue mako ii being my first) and definitely a fan of the brand.

Great review, great camera work, watch always in focus, think you have persuaded me to buy one,

Aron you convinced me on the Kano, but I like the 42mm to 44mm watches. It was already gone on the shopping in Japan so I ordered from Amazon. Can't wait to get it.

Nice piece Orient did really well on this one.I would have made it 42 mm it’s a more universal size but I’m a big guy so I am sure 44mm will work for me. I own a Seiko Shogun and that’s pretty close to 44mm. Really well done Orient !

even 42mm and i would snatch it up. too big at 44

I know the blue and red dial versions have a sunburst effect - does the black dial have this as well? I can't see it in any of the photos or videos online

I have this watch, not JDM, but through Long Island Watch, trust Marc, I think it doesn't get it's do compared to the Kamasu and Orient Mako USAII. Sure I would prefer sapphire, but honestly not rough on my watches, it's nice to go larger if needed. Mine came on Bracelet. Off the three for no apparent reason it's the least worn of my newer Orients. Have in Blue dial. I won't change my crystal but if some reason it broke, I'd replace it with sapphire.

is the bezel completely useless without the second markers on it?

Kamasu is # 1..but this is a Good one also. Good Video

Looks like a winner, although I'd pronounce it Kay-no (like the character from Mortal Kombat). Anyway, great vid

Looks like one of the Tudor's Black Bay Heritage.

would this one look normal on my 6.7'' wrist?

Love that colour configuration, espec on a Blackbay like yours... however, to avoid divorce (how many expensive watches does one need anyway?) but to have something that arguably can give me the same feel, I ordered a Neymar. NH35, 41.5 mm, 300 WR, slightly domed sapphire, metal bracelet and in the same colours. Don't get me wrong, that Orient looks great, but I like the Neymar's diametre better for my 7" wrist. And it seems to have better specs for about the same price.

@OFD

Are you sure it's 47mm lug to lug? It looks so much bigger. Ps: on Orientwatchusa website it says 'Lug-to-Lug Length: 50.5 mm'. Almost the same as the Black Bay.

should I get the red bezel or the black bezel? Im having a hard time deciding. Im just new to watch collecting. I have the skx pepsi dial.. Im leaning in the red a little bit but black is more basic color for a diver. thank you.

Having 8 inch wrists, the Ray 2/ Mako2 just aren't big enough for my taste. I ordered the Mako XL, should be here tomorrow. I'll probably order the Kano as well, and return the one I don't like as much. Like you said, the Kano seems to be a newer version of the Mako XL in many ways.

while gorgeous this red kano is, the black bezel one is the coolest in my opinion😎 give vibes of tudor pelagos

I had a ray 2, loved it dearly couldn't take it off my wrist despite owning 8 watches. However! A glass supermarket gate closed on me and hit the mineral glass, the scratch was so bad i had to claim it via the supermarket. Lesson - never buy mineral glass again. Im now searching for an alternative as i love orient divers such sexy great value lookers. Very disappointed this one has mineral crystal.... I think il have to go for a kamasu.

I honestly don't understand why would Orient make it in 44mm in 2019. Such a good looking design, in my opinion their best dive watch design to date, and yet with its dimensions, irrelevant for me and I would say most potential buyers.
