Dear friend!
Let me tell you something about my old Orient.
Since I got it, I did not open the case a long time. The accuracy was not very sharp but I was afraid to open it.
One time I decided to adjust the accuracy.
I found very easy way to do adjusment better, (I mean, to change the length of the hairspring in very short steps, in microns, without any optical devices and special tools). After that I adjusted the accuracy . My watch runs now with accuracy about 10sec a week. It is very good. It’s nice! You know, some watches have accuracy about +,- 30sec a day (according to manuals) and nobody complains because it’s normal. But it is not for me. I adjusted my Orient.
10sec a week – can you believe it?
I did it because I like the watch with high accuracy. Some watches don’t need this high quality adjustment because they run differently in day time and night time, in summer and in winter. They run slower or faster in different conditions. Even you adjust this watch to +,- 0 sec a day, the accuracy will be changed in time.
But the Orient is the special watch. Since I adjusted the accuracy, my watch runs same 10sec a week and it does not depend of conditions. In this case the Orient watch is the best watch.
The Orient watches have very nice shape, very high accuracy, very good design of dial and hands. You can see the time with any angle. I mean, you don’t have to move the watch in sertain position to see the dial better. You can see the dial from different places.
I have seen a lot of watches. Sometimes very expensive watches have very bad dial. You have to look a long time at the watch, to undersand, what time is it.
The Orient is the best watch. Really very nice watch for every day.
So, thanks to ORIENT Company for the Orient Watches they make!
