I have had an Orient for well over a decade - and even back then I bought it 2nd hand. Apart from requiring a new battery every few years (obviously a quartz movement not auto like that one), it's been pretty faultless.

I believe they use Citizen movements, although I stand to be corrected.

Orient Mako is the one you should be looking for, everyone raves about them.

Nolardog will be along soon to clarify this soon, she probably has 37 of them.

There's a new one too, IIRC it's called the Orient Hogrider. Big inexpensive chunk, I'd be looking at that too if I were you.
