Considering price, the fact that one usually does pool or beach, tub or shower diving... but a strong handsome watch is required, what would you consider the better buy in Orients?

Since your post went 8 hours without a reply, how bout we put it where it belongs. Personally, I would suggest the OS300... yes1.gif *pic borrowed from the net*  |

Ys, but that watch is too expensive... there are some models that cost max 150 bucks that are 200 meters...

For recreational water use, I'm sure one model is as good as any other.

From the manta that I already have, I could thake the jump to an M-Force SEL03002M0... but to go to the OS Diver (I believe it is the WZ0351FD), it is too much moola for essentialy the same thing... what can justify the additional $$. I do not think the labor costs of one country vs. the difference in quality really justify.

That nasty bezel on the SEL03002M0 is hideous, not even close to the same class IMO. But hey, whatever floats your boat I guess.  |

From pictures I think the current M force model is overpriced. Might be better in the metal though.
The 200M Orient Star is a nice piece. I think its out of production though, but I do see it from time to time on the sales forums.
Shame you don't like quartz. Seiko BFK is an awesome value. Seiko solar divers are nice too.
