A good deal to compare it's feature with the well known swiss brand....Model: CFT00004BMechanical Movement : ORIENT caliber 46R40 Made in JapanSelf-winding movement21 jewels21600/hour vibrationsPower reserve indicatorStainless steel case and braceletInternal rotating ring with slide ruleSapphire crystal with anti-reflection coatingScrew see-through caseback with sapphire crystal, screwed-down crownStainless steel bracelet Water resistant to 100mDiameter 43.7mmThickness 12.1mmorient-watch/global/p...ft00001b.html#

Seiko 7s26 Questions
I dont know how many of us owns a Seiko with 7s26 movement. My question is how long have you had it? Has it lived to your expectations? Let's hear it.

Quartz may actually be an idea who's time has come.
I was thinking about this today. Wind up watches and autowinders are less accurate than quartz (soul-less quartz, I know). Not just because the escapement oscillates at a slower and less consistent speed than quartz, but because the rate of the movement is affected by everything from the resting position, to a quick snap of the wrist. It's interestingas an aficionado of fine writing instruments (fountain pens) there were years where I wouldn't touch a ball pen of any kind, unless I was using a waitresses to sign a credit card slip. I loved the look and feel of fountain pens, found them to be far superior to ball pens, and relished the history behind each pen design and/or technology. But, after quite a few years, I came appreciate what the general public felt when ball pens first appeared. They were newer, more superior technology. They are cleaner, easier to use, and more convenient. Are they as romantic as a fountain pen? No. Do they give the same fine flow and flexibility

ROO 44mm rosegold
Hello TrfLast weekend I went to Rome and came home with a brand new PP5711, which was all good, almost. Problem is that I during some sightseeing came by a local AP boutique and ventured inside. The service was pleasant and very service minded. I tried a couple of nice watches but it was not until I tried the ROO Lightning struck ;-)I have never had the watch on my radar being 44mm and way to large. But I'm a semi-big guy just above 100kg and when viewed in the mirror it looked perfect. Now I'm giving hard thought flipping my gold GMT and date just II, adding a little cash and getting a rose gold ROO. After seeing the AP live my gold GMT feels cheap and the finish seems dull. Nobody where I live knows AP and I like that. How do you think the ROO in rose gold will hold up as a daily driver, office-work? I'm thinking the more scratch resistant bezel will help reducing daily tear. I like the thought of having a really nice daily driver and not just something I put on on occasion. RegardsA
