Gift for my brother

"This watch was a big hit. My brother came up with the idea of having same watches. Having had Orient watches in the past, I decide we should have Orient for their durability. It's a great everyday watch."

Orient Ray II - great value

"I’ve had mine for at least half a year plus, was my first watch I’ve ever purchased and it got me into collecting them. Keeps time well enough, it’s usually my daily wear because it’s automatic. The lume on it is great, it glows nice in the dark especially if you’re in sunlight often. Haven’t had any issues, I have a watch that cost about twice the price and I still wear this one more! Highly recommend. Can’t say if it is durable for heavy work as I sit at a desk, so far so good for me though."

The watch is pretty good

"The watch is pretty good and is an incredible value. That being said the bracelet is not very good and I recommend immediately switching it to a Nato."

Fits like a glove!

"Outstanding! Not too large or too small. Is very accurate for a Auto Mechanical out of the box. Blue is so dark it is almost black except in bright light. Lum charges fast and is very good. The band unlike many metal bands actually fits my wrist with little modification. No rattling of the band or movement. A little difficult to set with a very small crown. I was looking for a dress watch as I do have my SK Diver from 1980 but this was too good to pass by."

Excellent so far

"This is my first mechanical automatic watch and my first Orient. And so far, after having it for just three days, I'm loving it ! The blue dial gives a dressy, exquisite look to a "utilitarian" watch. I've tested it's accuracy via the NIST Atomic clock and after 24 or so hours it's running about 12-13 seconds fast - which is within the factory advertised specs. I'm not a NASA rocket scientist so that's not an issue. Many people complain about the "difficulty" in unscrewing the crown, manipulating the bezel... Perhaps I have strong fingers as this is not an issue for me. The luminosity is very very good. Lasts a nice 7-8 hours and easily readable in the dark/at night once your eyes adjust. I'd love to see Orient come out with a Field watch similar to the Seiko automatic SRPG27 Black, and 29 Blue dial. I'd be first in line !"

I bought watch about a month ago

"I love the Orient watch a month ago. The finish high quality, the automatic movement is accurate. I got mine with a bracelet and it is all first quality. I see little difference in manufacturing of my orient and a watch that's 5 to even 10 times the price."

5 star watch

"I never had a Orient before but I am very impressed with the watch. For a automatic it is very light and stylish."

Excellent value for money

"I just received my Ray II in the mail today and I was not disappointed. For about $150 this is the best diver on the market hands down. The automatic movement, day date complication, and great looks make this watch well worth the money. The only area that could be improved is the bracelet but it is by no means bad. But for the price point it is still very good and can just be upgraded in the future if you so desire. The build quality is exceptional as well. The Ray II is a great watch and I look forward to see what Orient brings to the table in the future."

Not just great quality for the money - great quality, period

"I’ve been looking for an affordable diver suitable to wear to the office, and after weeks of research I decided to go with the Ray II. I was looking through the $200-$350 price range and it’s surprising that the watch I landed on was below my estimated budget. Pictures don’t do this one justice. The sunburst effect is perfect - eye catching but not loud. The applied indices, framed and bezeled day/date window, and chapter ring are done with great attention to detail. If you go at this thing with a microscope of course you will notice imperfections, but to the naked eye there are no defects and the alignment is spot-on. In terms of the movement, you get a smooth 6 beats per second, hacking/hand-winding, day/date complication, and great accuracy. The main thing that drew me to this watch was the aesthetics. Up to the $500 mark, the diver market is saturated with homages and sketchy Chinese pieces. The Ray II obviously takes inspiration from the legends that have come before, but stands well on its own and comes from a respected brand with heritage. The negatives - I would have preferred to pay a bit more for a domed sapphire crystal. Also the bracelet has hollow end links and the clasp is mediocre. While the bezel is very good looking, it’s hard to turn without using your nails. However, I still gave this watch five stars because for the money, I don’t think you can do much better. It doesn’t just look more expensive than it is - it genuinely feels like it. Bravo Orient!"
