Orient Air Diver price drop!

I have always wanted this watch. Seiya has dropped the price from almost 600.00 to 458.00! Very tempting!

Very tempting indeed!!!

"Comes with all boxes papers, upgraded bracelet with Glide lock clasp and Orient Star rubber dive band."

I really like that model. Very nice!

Very cool watch, love the yellow dial.

That watch is the ballz!!
Never saw it before.

. . . smash the buy button AH. You need to own that one!!! Very nice!!!

Very nice! I've had my eyes on this watch for awhile.

The dial is NICE and the bezel is something you don't see every day either.
By the way that strap looks familiar !

Thats funny Tom. Yeah it is close. Maybe that's why I was drawn to it!

What movement is in it?

It does look VERY similar AH ! I think you might just be a pioneer leading
the way with this new style of strap ! ..Alan..It says it's a 21 Jewel
Orient automatic movement in the watch. Not 100% sure though, here are a
couple of links..

Alan....It's Orients in-house, poorly finished auto.

I like this one! Good Looking from dial and case to the shoes. I question the price even though it is lower than usual. Still a great looker!

Mike, when you say poorly finished are you referring to the look (does it have an exhibition case back?) or quality of the movement?

Solid case back. I've seen pics of the movement that have caused some consternation on WUS. Very rudimentary looking. Not pretty at all, but is known to be a solid movement I believe. The finishing on the plates is very rough.

@Northwestguy.... Part of the cost is that it is from the Orient Star line, and is currently Japan only.

Thanks for the look. Never saw this one before - at least that I can remember.
