    I'm definitely gonna save up for this one! This is exactly what I was looking for.
    Honestly, Teddy, It's really cool to see how successful you are becoming. Most of the other Watch-Related RUclips creators are really dismissive and condescending talking about any watch under 1000 bucks. You are enthusiastic, well-articulated, and really helpful; you've probably introduced thousands of people, including me, to this hobby, so thank you.

      Thank you for this kind remark, my friend. The more watches I handle the more I come to respect certain brands in this affordable tier that provide great value. They are what got me into this so I know what they can represent for others as well.

      I was thinking something similar. I still remember the first RUclips video Teddy made sitting at a desk. To see his progression is awesome. And as you stated, Teddy is one of the few who have progressed to his level in horology and not become arrogant and condescending. Kudos Teddy...keep doing great things.

    I have this watch! Had trouble deciding between this beautiful green dial and the version with a white dial but ended up going with white. My first ever automatic and I couldn’t be more pleased, it’s an excellent watch. Since then I’ve “upgraded” to an Orient Star Heritage Gothic. Shoutout Orient for making great watches at an affordable price point.

    I just got one. OMG, what a beautiful watch. It's accurately captured in the video here. The dial has such complex reflections that I had problems photographing it.
    Crazy. And yes, the band works stunningly well in the overall presentation.

      Just received mine today and videos don't do justice for this watch. Absolutely stunning dial.
      Not sure if Orient changed anything but mine has a sunburst effect that doesn't really show on any of the RUclips videos. Or maybe it's just the different lighting.

    I bought an Orient Helios Open Heart model in blue, my first automatic watch, about a month and a half ago. I've become a real fan of Orient. For $209, the watch really exceeded my expectations. Beautifully polished case, a blue dial that gives a feeling of depth (like a deep sapphire blue pool), and it is keeping time well, staying extremely close to my quartz Massey Tissot watch and the computer's time. Now I want a Grand Orient watch to go with it!

    I got the white dial version as my first mechanical watch a few months ago for my 18th birthday. I think the watch in general is very versatile and looks great. Note that the white dial has a slight sunburst effect instead of this textured green version here. Although I don't really prefer the sunburst dial of mine and think it would've looked better with a dial like this one, I think it's still a great watch, with great value for the price.

    Quite an interesting choice for the colour of the dial! It’s always a plus to get an in house movement in this price range.
    I think a lot of people will appreciate the exhibition case-back even if the movement inside is not decorated, At least the rotor is signed nicely. Water resistance is much more then you would expect on a more dressy piece like this, so it’s a fantastic bonus!
    And for me personally the 20mm lug width makes this a for sure purchase in my eyes. Just because I think this watch could go with a wide variety of straps
    (rubber, leather, etc) and still look great.

    I own the white dial with light gold accents and it's a beauty. This dial color is nice but I tend to avoid green as it only works well with white or green shirts . By the way, the hacking movement is excellent as 10 wind-ups will last for 8 hours. I have an Arbutus automatic and you have to wind that thing 32 times to get a full day of run time. I got the Orient at Jomashop for only $138, I am done with buying quartz watches.

    @Teddy Baldassarre in your opinion which dial looks better this green one or the blue Orient Maestro? Also the blue does not come with the mesh strap so probably leaning towards this green one, looks amazing! I'm deciding between the Orient Maestro and Orient Symphony III. Maestro has cleaner face which does not have the water resist print and smaller case size but the hands and markers of the Symphony III have more style to them! Decisions....decisions!

      No this has been in their lineup for a bit but relatively newer.

Gives the simple dial a bit more character.

    Hello,this watch is beautiful,but so inaccurate....-15/+25 seconds a day is a huge time error.I have heard that the quartz watches have delay of about 10-20 seconds in one year!!!
    Is this true for all mechanical and automataic watches-15seconds a delay plus or minus from the real time?
    Are they really so inaccurate every day nevetheless the power reserve which they have?
    As I understood from all the videos in this channel,the automataic watches are nicer and much more expensive because of the hand made production and NOT because of the accuracy,which is awful,right???
