Orient Mako 40 mm Review - RA-AC0Q01B
Orient Mako 40 mm Review - RA-AC0Q01B
Welcome to this review of the relatively new Orient Mako 40 RA-AC0Q01B, finally a Orient Mako dive styled model that is only 40 mm in diameter, as opposed to the larger Orient Mako, Ray and Kamasu models! In this review you will see the Orient Mako 40mm on several different strap options, as well as see a size comparison with a Seiko SKX009, Seiko SPB143 and a Sinn 556A.
For me, this is the best looking dive styled watch I've seen from Orient to this day. Please enjoy the review and let me know what you think!
If you want to help the channel out (commissions): Here are Amazon affiliate links to the watch on the video! Some pretty good deals again!

ORIENT Hidden GEM! Orient Mini Triton Review ( RA-AC0K01B )

    That's a really nice try of Orient to bring back their skin diver. IMHO they are not there yet but close. I would have loved to see the broad arrow hands on it and I also think a lume pip in the bezel would have been great. The bracelet would anyway be the first thing that goes into the "bin" after purchase ;-) Great review. Keep 'em coming. Cheers!

    • @NordicWatchChannel
      @NordicWatchChannel 17 часов назад

      Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it! Yeah I agree. I really like these hands though, but would also like a lume pip in addition to the tapering bracelet. But at least with this bracelet you’re right, it’s coming off!

    The decision to have untapered bracelet is very weird. I think even most cheap bracelets have at least 2mm of tapering.

    • @NordicWatchChannel
      @NordicWatchChannel День назад

      Yeah, almost like it’s a stylistic choice or something. Or then it’s just an easy way to save money since you can take an old design and slap it on. I took a look at their sports collection and didn’t really find a tapering 20mm (or 22mm for that matter) bracelet there. It’s been my biggest pet peeve with all Orient sports watches for years. Would be about time to make a tapering bracelet for these.. thanks for your comment!

  • @NihilisticHatred
    @NihilisticHatred 10 дней назад

    One issue; what you have is a zulu strap, not a nato. A nato doesn't have the extra piece that controls where the watch can go. A nato strap is a single piece like a bracelet.

    • @NordicWatchChannel
      @NordicWatchChannel 10 дней назад

      Actually both nato and zulu straps can have that. Zulu straps often do not. The difference (to my knowledge) is that zulu straps are made more thick and stiff, and often with thicker and round hardware. Nato straps are more slim with slimmer hardware also. And the strap in the video is a nato strap. Then again, I don’t think that there are any strict definitions in a dictionary. But the differences I mentioned seem to be the commonly used ones.

    The balance of colors in this Mojito variant are absolutely perfect. I do not wear gold. I’m sort of a green/brown guy in my clothing options and this watch nails it when it comes to complimenting those colors. The Gold is a bonus that I’m really enjoying and have discovered works very well with the spectrum of colors I prefer to wear. Can’t say enough about the newest size offering. It’s perfect.

Is there anything special about that one or was it just random? 3 links was the exact fit for me, no further faff required. Thanks from the UK.
