Man I’m dying to get my hands on a Triton. I have two Makos, Two Rays, two Bambinos, a Sun and Moon, and even the World Stage pocket watch. I’m only missing the Triton to complete my Orient collection. I hope they go on sale soon. ****Update**** I was browsing on Amazon and found the black and gold for $393, I applied for the Amazon rewards card and got $150 instant reward and ended up paying $270, tax included. WOOOOOOHOOOOO
I bought one on amazon for about 375 a little over 6 months ago. So far its a great watch. I wear it and use it hard, broke one link pin, one tab on the bezel spring, and ive scratched the heck out of it. It works great, runs slightly fast but not too bad. I reset the time and date once a month unless i need absolute precision. Im about to order a couple bracelets for it and a sapphire bezel. Its an amazing watch and the price point blows my mind. I only wish o could find a crystal back plate to see the movement.
Love the leather on this ! I have treated leather on several of my divers. Most who claim you can’t put leather on divers, don’t even dive, so, put what you like !
I have aTrition. It is really very nice. It’s nice too have a power reserve meter. You getting sapphire and a excellent movement for much less than a Seiko Diver with sapphire and the 6r15.
I got the black version from this seller a couple weeks ago (US shipping). Wonderful watch, great secure shipping via FedEx, plus a prompt response when I had a question about shipping. Wonderful experience. As opposed to a certain gray market seller based out of Brooklyn whose boxes look like they’re about to fall out from the bottom and sold me a defective Hamilton (it was authentic, but chronograph pushers we’re broke). Anyway I’m sure I’ll buy another Orient someday from these guys.
Your dad's watch is a real classy! The bracellets have improove in time. Those option to swap bracellets and straps increase the options to customize your dayly used watches.
I like how you wear 2 watches at the same time i always do that when i travel without a travel case and have 2 watces with me because i dont want to damage them i bought the triton today and its such an amazing watch your video on how to change a strsp with collars and pins helped me pretty wel i was changing it and one popped oit so i immediatly searched on youtubd what this is and your vid helped me good luck with your channel and youre store mark!
I always have to laugh when I hear people complain about leather straps on a dive watch. They are probably desk divers. The Hirsch rubber backed straps are not only my favorite, they are phenomenal.
Hopefully there will be video about a new ceramic bezzle soon. I love my Triton but after one year of daily usage there are a few scratches on the aluminium bezzle. Need to get it upgraded 👌
all the bracelets are very nice, but for me a diver only with stainless steel bracelet :) I have the Triton with the Strapcode bracelete and the Bezel saphire insert from LIW , precious :)
Dear Long Island Watch! If we would like to order which size is required? 20 or 22 mm? or its depends on my style? thank you very much for your kind asnwer. (for orient triton ofc.)
Super excited about the bezel inserts! The luminous pip fell out of mine and Orient advised two things. 1/ that isn't covered under warranty and 2/ they don't have parts yet......
Wes Burton Must be normal wear and tear. Don’t ya love it when they stand behind their products. I was thinking about getting a triton. Now I won’t buy an Orient watch.
Doesn't that remove the professional certification due to it having no indication of when your dive time would expire? You should probably message them back and use that argument, it more than compromises just the quality, but also safety.
thank you Marc for giving us more options to upgrade the Triton... bought an angus J for mine and it also looks good on the watch... will your ratcheting clasp fit the strapcode angus J bracelet as well?
I am interest in a blue Triton. However, and you may have covered this before, but can you explain why some of the watches on your website (usually the ones I am interested in including this one!) you don't, won't or can't ship to the UK?
Can the Triton bezel be changed? I believe that the Mako2's bezel can be interchanged with bezels from the Seiko SKX series. What is the Triton's bezel twin?
Hello I have an issue with this watch, I bought one, one month ago and i scratch my bezel, the rest of the watch still nee, do you know where I can buy the bezel insert or the entire bezel? Thanks you
Angus-J makes a bit more sense for the Triton than the O. The O is just too similar to the stock bracelet. Man, they really need to make a Hexad for the Triton. Now THAT would be badass!
Some great options for the Triton Mark. How about a blue Triton with a Yacht Master style insert on the Strapcode? Too much? Luv my Strapcode on the Blue Ray.
Question. Can you have multiple bezels with different bezels insert, and just pop one off and snap another one on. One day Batman dial with coin edge. And another month switch to oem bezel and ceramic Pepsi insert? Will that damage the watch any? Or just go though a lot of O-rings lol
Got my blue Triton last week and I am looking at bracelet options, even though I find the one it comes with already pretty nice. I am sure the Super-O is better, but the design is quite similar. Maybe I should focus on the jubilee, just to change up the look. Edit: B.t.w., I already own a nato with the exact same look and material like the one in the video, and it looks fantastic. Unfortunately, I fear it is not going to last very long. After about 30 hours of wristtime it already starts to get fussy around the edges and the area around the holes I use show beginning signs of wear & tear. I recon that after about 100 hours of usage it will become unwearable, nevermind bad looking. Its a shame really, because I like it very much otherwise.
I'm thinking of getting the Strap Code for my Triton, though had it sized and doesn't feel that cheap, maybe when I wear it for sometime. One question, I usually pay a few dollars to a jeweler to size, are the Strap Code easier to unscrew and resize?
Hopefully there will be video about a new ceramic bezzle soon. I love my Triton but after one year of daily usage there are a few scratches on the aluminium bezzle. Need to get it upgraded
Can we upgrade to a lumed SKX bezel/insert on this like you’d suggested earlier (your watch, your way) with other Orients? Without swapping the sapphire crystal it should preserve the 200m WR, yes?
Outstanding! I watched Urban Gentry’s review a couple days ago but haven’t gotten into Orient yet so this looks to be my first once those bezel options are available. I’m considering a Damasko DA45 as well which you email replied you could special order but it ended up in my junk folder so I haven’t had a chance to get back to you but I’ll probably order both at once. Keep living your dream Mark you rock!
There goes my small hope of getting a triton 😔 After this video and the one that Urban Gentry posted, there aren't gonna be many more available 😂. Great work and all the best Mark!
Hmm, could Seiko be threatening to remove your authorized dealership unless you cease selling JDMs? If so, why? I don't understand the logic behind the 2-tier-market selling strategy anyway. Why a separate JDM market? Even the Swiss don't do that. They have the authorized, and then there's the grey market, and there's logic to why Swiss manufacturers would discourage grey, but there isn't a parallel here with Seiko's strategy here. It's not like you're selling JDM watches any more cheaply than one would be able to obtain them from Japanese sources, so you're not depressing prices. I'd be curious to know exactly what the owners'/top management's agenda is with the 2-tier strategy. What's the point? There isn't an obvious financial angle, like with the Swiss and authorized dealers. Why one set of watches for the domestic market and another for all else? What benefit does this bring them?
Saw the JDM video as well. It could have more to do with the Japanese dealers than Marc. If Marc and others give Japanese dealers an easy outlet for dumping stock, they may take advantage of bulk discounts and other incentives that otherwise wouldn't be available. And BTW Rolex do this too.
I own a Triton and although those straps look good on it, it's just too top heavy to be worn comfortably on anything other than a bracelet. Of course this is just my experience and opinion.
The Robby is Calf skin with Sailcloth texturing. just a FYI SPECIFICATION Upper Layer: Perforated Italian Calfskin Lower Layer: Premium Caoutchouc (natural rubber) Water resistance: Water resistant (300m) Warranty: 30 months
I love these!!!!! Immensely jumped to order... but after taxes they hover around ≈$100 or more 😕😒😖 What am I, a bum? I never buy straps under $500! No deal! 😵
you make such great videos. One of the hardest working guys in the business and it's so great that you continue to develop your offerings and listen to your customer base!
The Hirsch Robby is nice however if your wrist is 7.5" or larger it's probably too short ..... They need an XL offering . I own a Red and a Blue and my 7.5" wrist is at the perimeter of working.
I dont own the brand,it always said to me CHINA...and I avoided the brand because of the branding name..although its supposed to be a great watch . LOL

Can't wait for the bezel replacements for my blue Triton!
Me too ! But i have black .
Me too
Thanks guys. I'm gonna do both blue and black; same color as OEM.
@@islandwatch Ohh.. can't wait either for the blue Triton Bezel, either Sapphire or Ceramic. Would the Sapphire have a high lume underneath?
@@islandwatch Any ETA for those inserts? I've been looking for one since i got mine last Dec. and the lume pip fell out in Jan..
The "Robby Strap" fits great. Waiting for your bezel insert development & suggestion though not disappointed with the existing one.
Thank you!
That is a nice looking watch. I am looking forward to your bezel inserts for this.
I always have to laugh when I hear people complain about leather straps on a dive watch. They are probably desk divers. The Hirsch rubber backed straps are not only my favorite, they are phenomenal.
Very nice looking with that Hirsch leather.

will use local watchmaker ?
@@Jollopukki2 I am not sure yet. Would love to do it myself with the help of a tutorial video 😊
But first I need a matching ceramic bezzle 🤔
Good segment, liking the Robby. Look goid on my Seiko! Thanx Marc!
Thanks!
all the bracelets are very nice, but for me a diver only with stainless steel bracelet :) I have the Triton with the Strapcode bracelete and the Bezel saphire insert from LIW , precious :)
very nice was looking to pick up a triton. whats the ETA on the bezel inserts?
Looks amazing on the leather.
Yeah, killer!

No, just the O.
Hi can the crown be changed? if so what models will fit?
I am interest in a blue Triton. However, and you may have covered this before, but can you explain why some of the watches on your website (usually the ones I am interested in including this one!) you don't, won't or can't ship to the UK?
I believe he does not have distribution rights for orient in the UK..don't quote me on that though! 😂
It's usually just Orient, and they have an export restriction.
Bingo
Looking forward for the bezel update for Tritons from you. The not engraved bezel is the only thing which makes me sad.
I’m really looking forward to the bezel inserts since I put a small scratch in mine. Find a stock replacement doesn’t seem to be an option either.
Thank you.
I was surprised that *all* the straps looked good on that watch. I wasn't expecting that just looking at the straps at the start.
Lovely looking watch and great strap combinations. Liked the waterproof leather best.
Thanks!
Will the red man made one with the rubber underneath fit on other 20mm lugs? That is the one!
Hey mark, this particular video looks good now. I can't quite put my finger on it, probably new camera, probably better lighting.
All the same stuff!
Any updates on the inserts?
Can the Triton bezel be changed? I believe that the Mako2's bezel can be interchanged with bezels from the Seiko SKX series. What is the Triton's bezel twin?
Is there a video on the ratcheting clasp? Thanks Marc !

That would, you are right.
Is it possible to change the insert bezel for a ceramic?
Yeah - looking for a replacement as well.
Some great options for the Triton Mark. How about a blue Triton with a Yacht Master style insert on the Strapcode? Too much? Luv my Strapcode on the Blue Ray.
Gonna start with stock style inserts first.
Weren't the first dive watches on leather straps?
Question. Can you have multiple bezels with different bezels insert, and just pop one off and snap another one on. One day Batman dial with coin edge. And another month switch to oem bezel and ceramic Pepsi insert? Will that damage the watch any? Or just go though a lot of O-rings lol
Sure, you can. As long as you can take it off neatly!
Do you know if the Robby strap fits on Orient Kamasu?
The Tr it on watch!
LOL. I see what you did there.
Got my blue Triton last week and I am looking at bracelet options, even though I find the one it comes with already pretty nice. I am sure the Super-O is better, but the design is quite similar. Maybe I should focus on the jubilee, just to change up the look.

Hi Marc, I need a type o that nice Strapcode (same clasp) for Seiko Hulk SPB103J1. Do have an idea ?
Greetings Steppe
I'm thinking of getting the Strap Code for my Triton, though had it sized and doesn't feel that cheap, maybe when I wear it for sometime. One question, I usually pay a few dollars to a jeweler to size, are the Strap Code easier to unscrew and resize?
This you can do yourself with a small screwdriver.
Hi!
Can you help me?
Zeppelin or Citizen is the better brand?
That is tough to call, they both make some great watches. The Zeppelin moonphase is amazing, I just saw recently on flight, and was really impressed.
Just buy what you like. Citizen is among the largest watch companies.
Okay thanks. I'm going to buy one of the citizen watch. 🙂
Sapphire coated bazel will be as hard as ceramic ? I mean new insert for Triton.
Yes.
Hopefully there will be video about a new ceramic bezzle soon. I love my Triton but after one year of daily usage there are a few scratches on the aluminium bezzle. Need to get it upgraded
Love your channel and how you present/review watches :) Can you do same video for Orient Kamasu?
Can we upgrade to a lumed SKX bezel/insert on this like you’d suggested earlier (your watch, your way) with other Orients? Without swapping the sapphire crystal it should preserve the 200m WR, yes?
I am working on just the insert for this one, so all you'll have to do is remove the bezel, remove the insert, and reverse. Still maintaining your WR.
Outstanding! I watched Urban Gentry’s review a couple days ago but haven’t gotten into Orient yet so this looks to be my first once those bezel options are available.

Hi Marc, I'm just wondering why you don't post the Tritons to the UK
That's Orient's call, not mine.
@@islandwatch i don't get it... Press them on it!... Please 😃
First to view! Sorry. But this has never happened before. Just had to celebrate

Looks like a modded SKX... probably cost as much as modding an SKX. lol
I noticed it looks smaller on metal bracelet than on a black strap.
Yeah, I think it's the color transition that does that.
The Triton is a much better watch than the SKX..!!
@@donrossi1603 I know. I was trying to say rather than waste your money on modding an already overpriced SKX, you might as well buy this Triton.

hi Marc seiko SRPC91K1 vs orient triton which one should I buy?
You RUclips watch guys should call the Oyster bracelets, the Clam.
LOL
@@islandwatch Just call it Oysters and Jubelees....😎🤔👍
Idea for a video; feature watches of uncommon dial colours like red, green, purple etc. as 99% of watches are white/off white, black or blue.
I did a similar video a few years ago, but maybe it's time to bring it back!
The Hirsch Robby is nice however if your wrist is 7.5" or larger it's probably too short ..... They need an XL offering . I own a Red and a Blue and my 7.5" wrist is at the perimeter of working.

Beautiful appearance.Only problem is ugly trade mark next to Orient name,similar like Citizen destroyed they watches with a "blue angel" writing
Love it or hate it!
@@islandwatch You guess, nothing in between ? 😂
I put leather on a diver not even water resistant. Of course I have several divers so I just use another if I'm swimming.
