I chose between the Ray, Mako and Kamasu and went for the Kamasu, since I wanted that red dial and sapphire crystal. You can't really go wrong with either, mostly a matter of taste. I'm also on the camp that prefer the V1 indicies, made it more original in design. The dial on this one is stunning though.
This is actually verrrry nice looking. Looks nicer than the new 5kxs for my money. For my ray 2 I had to replace the bezel (preference) with a coin edge and ceramic, and a j type bezel and now I love it. This particular Kamasu looks killer!
I have a blue Ray II and the red Kamasu. I love them both. I do wish the crowns were bigger or at least more grippy. 20mm lug width would be nice as well. Amazing watches that punch well above their price points.
Not a fan of mixing up two styles of markers + trapezoid 12 with two tone dial. A big mashup. The first gen., with its simplicity (all rectangles + triangle 12, one color dial), is just better looking, and then for me personally a better watch. Is there any improvements on bracelet?
Excellent video. I do love Orient watches. I only got two. I have an orange bezel Mako XL with the older non handwinding movement and love it. OK for shallow diving but the lume is a bit weak and not useful for deeper down. The other a 37mm dress watch that's too small for my wrist and my wife uses it. This Kamasu is very nice, great dial and nice size for the more medium sized wrists. The Mako XL is a big boy with 44.5mm diameter and suits my 8" wrist.
Really nice... especially love the dial color. A gradient dial is stunning. I have a red Kamasu, really like the originality of that design. Also have a blue Ray II, one of my favorite watches. Can't go wrong with most Orients!
Enjoy! There's a new or slimmed down version of the Orient Neptune known as the Triton which has slight advantages over the Kamasu and it is unfortunate that Orient did not stick with the original "shark teeth" dial because now the new time pieces lack originality save for two of the dial colors. The original "shark teeth" dial was very appropriate for the watch since Kamasu means barracuda in Japanese.
Lovely looking watch I've got the ray and the mk1 kamasu with the teal dial , the kamasu is outstanding in terms of value, I also prefer the original indices . You can spend an awful lot more money on a dive watch but I'm not sure why you'd want to !
I own a Mako II, no Sapphire crystal, less refined case finish and of course different dial and bezel insert, but basically the same construction. Although I have some complaints - the hands don't line up perfectly, and the bezel action was so stiff that even after days of experimenting with the spring I eventually had to remove the O-ring -, it's still a very nice and well-loved piece of my collection. For its price I can live with these problems, but I guess I'd be a bit more apprehensive with a Kamasu II, as I think one can run into the same problems, and the Sapphire crystal and more elaborate case finish wouldn't balance out the higher price. My advice is always try to check these Orient divers in person before buying, especially if you're considering the "upgraded" models.
@@HomerIncognito Plenty of "moddability" for Orient Diver's as well. Aftermarket brands are noticing them, with the "fall" of Seiko on the affordable end of the market. There are plenty of aftermarket bracelets for the Ray and Kamasu, crystals, even bezels that let you use SKX inserts.
Thanks for the video. I like the originality of the original Kamasu as I want to stay away from any Rolex homage/knockoff/fake ones as much as I can, however after I tried one of these few days ago I am not so sure about which one to buy anymore. 😃 Yes, this has the dial setup just like a Submariner but it makes the watch look much smaller and more compact than the original Kamasu. I am not sure if this is only in the photos, what would you say about it? 🙂
Wow pretty cool watch good price for a manual wind watch wonder if automatic. When you think how much Rolex or Blancpain is what you have is a good starter for a wind up watch. Hope you enjoy it
I’m going to get in trouble for saying this, but here goes…the crown probably so small because the Japanese have small fingers! I love you, Japan! I put an Islander Jubilee bracelet on mine. This is one of my favorite timepieces!
Cent really complain about this one, especially for the money. I wish they'd do something sized more like the Tutor BB 58 in dimensions though.... That would be more appealing to a whole different group of consumers. My wrist is a bit bigger, but I prefer a smaller watch. It's a pretty common preference these days. Thanks for the unboxing.
It's for time keeping. You move the bezel counterclockwise so the triangle, (60 minute marker), lines up with minute hand. As the minute hand moves, the markers on the bezel tells you how much time has passed. It's a tool used by divers to keep track of their oxygen time underwater.✌🏽
I do like the new one, but if I were to pick one up, I think I'd still go with the older blue Kamasu. Was hoping for a sale over the holidays but never happened here in Canada (the price actually seemed to go up vs down).
Orient went same road as Seiko with alignment.. Hour hand exactly on 6 marker and minute hand on 7 minutes.. I received new triton(light they call it) few days ago, same problem with hands but less offset than on this one... How hard is it to put 2 hands one on top each other when assembled .... I dont want to take NEW watch to a watcmaker to align it...
My concern is that this watch has a plastic movement holder, just like regular Kamasu. This is a major drawback compared to Orient Ray or Mako, which had no sapphire, but proper metal movement holders, just like any quality watch should have. As long as this feature on a new Kamasu II is not confirmed, I would wait with purchasing this one.
Has there been reported issues with the older watch and the plastic movement holder? I know metal > plastic, but considering I will likely pick up the older Kamasu I was just wondering.
@@Conundrum191 I haven't heard about issues reported, but I saw some pictures of that movement inside the case. The plastic holder just gives it extremely cheap feel, so otherwise pretty good watch. It is just a cost cut I cannot accept personally. It is just like you had a nice car with some decent features on the outside, but an engine would be mounted on cheap toy-like holders.
@@adambrosz5219 Why would that matter? lol you can't even see it and it does the job equally good (and it is probably less weight). better spend the money on the outside of the watch, like on the sapphire. Would rather have them upgrade the endlinks and clasp than the movement holder. And then again, this is a watch than you can easily buy for 200 something €. We can't expect the world at this price point. And it is one of the best watches out there at this price point, from reputable brands. Seiko and Citizen won't get you this quality and specs at the same price.
@@tiagodvt You may as well Ask why anything else matter on a watch Apart from timekeeping. Yes it does matter for me. If they are able to have the metal Holder on a Ray and mako, they should be able to continue the same thing in other models.
@@adambrosz5219 LOL that's just a stupid comparison. Stop nitpicking useless stuff. It's a 200€ watch, and one of the best in that price range. Why would you stop buying or liking a watch for a thing you can't even see and that doesn't even make a difference? And some might even argue plastic cuts down weight and is more shock resistant. Brands like Cartier use it on 4000€+ watches.
Very nice watch, maybe even nicer than Kamasu I, but my choice is definitely Kamasu I because of its original design. Kamasu II looks like a Rolex Submariner and I personally don’t like homage watches.
That depends largely on where you live ,my local watchmaker does service to these types of movements for around $20, and they are usually serviced when you encounter problems which can be decade or 2
I have 6 Orient Divers (Ray II, Kamasu, RA-AC0K01B10B (AKA new Triton), 2 Triton/Neptunes & RE-AU0302L00B (Orient Star)). I cannot find any web-site that refers to this new watch as a Kamasu II. I think the names that we are familiar with were created by Orient Watch USA. Even they do not give this watch a name.
Apparently, all the model names we know of were given by Orient USA. Orient themselves just use the RA-something for pretty much everything. This new one is pretty much a Kamasu - it has the same case, movement, bracelet, bezel, crown etc. It's just a changed dial with different indices and hand colours an different bezel inserts. That's why people are calling them Kamasu as well. And it makes sense is my book.
I don't think so, there's a market for both. Different colours and people like the older design as well. When they released the "gen 1" Kamasu, they didn't stop making the Ray.
Orient just announced a third generation of Kamasus that feature a dial with arabic numbers. It comes in 4 different colours. My favourite is the one with a charcoal grey dial.
i always prefer Dress range and variants of Orient but never their divers, they look too conventional and always like rolex homages, always prefer Seiko Divers when comes to Divers.
So close Orient… upgrade the clasp and end links. I have a ray, mako and two mako XLs. All of them brand new out of the box had scratched cases from those damn cheap hollow end links. I’m not purchasing any more until they fix that issue regardless of the other upgrades.
At this price point, I doubt they'll do it. This is a watch that you can easily find at 200 something €. Look at the newer Seiko 5's and Citizen Promasters as an example - those have hollow links troughout the bracelet. The Orient bracelet is a step above from those and probably the best you'll find on an automatic watch at this price point, from reputable brands (sure you can find better on the chinese or microbrands, or on quartz pieces like some Citizen Eco-Drives.etc). But if it bothers you that much, just get a Strapcode bracelet and you get a near perfect watch for around 300€.
Looks good to me. I think it just depends on the angle you are looking at it, and that's normal. Orient usually gets them right and this particular one doesn't even have a chapter ring to align, the markers are on the dial (one less piece to be misaligned lol).
I can't understand why people are so obsessed with bezel action. I'm willing to bet 99.9% of the people that own divers....DON'T dive. Those that do dive....could care less how smooth it is....as long as it WORKS
@@Splash111 99% of people will never use it as designed just like most people won't go swimming with their more expensive watches at all, but the bezel does kinda serve a cool purpose just to time little things like putting some Steaks on the grill or something.

Meh- after the crown separated from the stem on my Triton and my friend’s Orient defender’s rotor stopped winding the movement(now requires hand-winding) I’ve lost faith in this marque.
It shares the case, bezel grip, hands and printed markers on the dial instead of chapter ring like the Kamasu and unlike the Ray which has none of these, so.....

As usual with orient it looks great. I just wish they would upgrade the clasp and end links.

My Mako USA II has solid end links. I think it’s the only Orient diver that does. It also has drilled lug holes.
I chose between the Ray, Mako and Kamasu and went for the Kamasu, since I wanted that red dial and sapphire crystal. You can't really go wrong with either, mostly a matter of taste. I'm also on the camp that prefer the V1 indicies, made it more original in design. The dial on this one is stunning though.
Same reasons I just got my red dial Kamasu.
V1 kamasu the best one
The dial color is awesome!
My red dial V1 Kamasu literally just arrived. Looking forward to the comparison video.
It's the best!👌🏽
Wow beautiful dial. Orient is one of my favorite watches ...
This is actually verrrry nice looking. Looks nicer than the new 5kxs for my money. For my ray 2 I had to replace the bezel (preference) with a coin edge and ceramic, and a j type bezel and now I love it. This particular Kamasu looks killer!
It makes a lot of sense that they would add more colour and dial choices to this popular model.
I have a blue Ray II and the red Kamasu. I love them both. I do wish the crowns were bigger or at least more grippy. 20mm lug width would be nice as well. Amazing watches that punch well above their price points.
So true, crown as with the Kamasu v1 is again too flimsy
Not a fan of mixing up two styles of markers + trapezoid 12 with two tone dial. A big mashup. The first gen., with its simplicity (all rectangles + triangle 12, one color dial), is just better looking, and then for me personally a better watch. Is there any improvements on bracelet?
Nope, same bracelet clasp and case
Excellent video. I do love Orient watches. I only got two. I have an orange bezel Mako XL with the older non handwinding movement and love it. OK for shallow diving but the lume is a bit weak and not useful for deeper down. The other a 37mm dress watch that's too small for my wrist and my wife uses it.

Orient kamasu II watch is really SUPERB good looking diver watch
Enjoy!

Great looker! That bezel colour is a great addition.

I had a similar issue with my Kamasu. Oiling it helped, but one shouldn't have to do that to get a usable bezel.
Orient have really taken the budget diver slot that Seiko had with the SKX range. Imagine these will only get more popular
They won't get anywhere near Seiko because of it's moddability
Citizen have that covered with a range iso divers
@@HomerIncognito Plenty of "moddability" for Orient Diver's as well. Aftermarket brands are noticing them, with the "fall" of Seiko on the affordable end of the market. There are plenty of aftermarket bracelets for the Ray and Kamasu, crystals, even bezels that let you use SKX inserts.
@@HomerIncognito they're becoming very moddable, in fairness probably coming into the same range as the skx there
@@tiagodvt you can't easily take off the bezel of Kamasu, that will prevent it from achieving the same status as Seiko 5 by itself

Sorry but the green on the bezel doesn't compliment the dial color. The colors seem to clash IMHO.

This is definitely not the Kamasu II and should not be called that, it is very misleading. Maybe Ray 3 would be a better and more suiting name
