My Seiko 5 model SRPG47K1 was ordered in Japan at the price of 300 euros...I love its dial, this ice blue color, it comes with a Milanese mesh bracelet but I alternate with another Seiko bracelet...it is very comfortable and I often have positive comments when I wear this watch...its diameter is 42mm

Ma Seiko 5

I present to you my Seiko 5 Suits Style in a different version and that we do not see much, it is sold with the Milanese mesh bracelet stamped Seiko (K1) or with a pretty rubber strap with Seiko pin (K2) ... I really like the Seiko 5 and not long ago Seiko has just released the new Seiko 5 SKX SRPK87K1 which recalls the five models of 1960 ... My Seiko 5 Suits is very pleasant and easy to wear not heavy and pretty with variations in color of the dial depending on where you are ... the diameter is 42.5mm the glass is in Hardlex (reinforced mineral) with ATM at 10 (the crown is not screwed) heir to the SKX but it is no longer a diver.

This Seiko watch is my second with the Kinetic system. It is a Kinetic quartz movement, the Seiko 5M82 movement without battery having an integrated electricity system, the Kinetic technology draws its energy from the movement of the arm, the crown, located at three o'clock, allows you to set the time and the push button located at 2 o'clock helps to check the power reserve. An example on mine just now I pressed the push button and it scrolled for 20 seconds which tells me that I have autonomy for a month. I really like this Seiko watch because the system is really original and ingenious, plus this watch has a really superb blue dial and it has a nice presence on the wrist, it comes with a steel bracelet but I alternate with a tropical bracelet, I really like Japanese watches and I wear it quite often the dial glass is in Hardlex (reinforced mineral) its diameter is 42.5mm and it is water resistant to 100m, it is not a watch of diving there is no crown aimed.

I present to you my Seiko 5 sport FIFTY FIVE FATHOMS...which I find goes everywhere with the look of a diver, the robustness of a sportswoman, the Seiko SNZH55K1 also known by its nickname of "Fifty Five Fathoms" for the homage to the Blancpain timepiece, is a versatile piece that can be worn on multiple occasions...Belonging to the "Best Sellers" category of the "Five" subsidiary of Seiko, the SNZH55K1 has a unidirectional bezel matching the Black & White dial of the watch.
As for the hands and indexes, they are treated with Lumibrite, a non-radioactive and luminescent component, making the time readable in all circumstances. On the back, there is a transparent caseback, allowing the wearer of the timepiece to observe the caliber 7S36B in action.
The Seiko manufacture movement is equipped with 23 jewels, benefiting from 40 hours of power reserve.

At three o'clock, there is a date and day complication, adjustable via the crown also located at three o'clock. The whole thing is protected by a "Hardlex" tempered mineral glass, a specialty at Seiko.

Finally, this automatic model is water-resistant to 100 meters. It does not allow swimming or diving, but is resistant to showers, baths, swimming or even hand washing. This watch is now impossible to find new, perhaps still on a Japanese online site where there are still new SKXs at 3 or 4 times the price ... this watch has a diameter of 42mm. price at the time: 250 euros.

I really like this Yema watch which is emblematic of the brand and which refers to car racing and the Michel Vaillant comic strip...it has a Quartz movement but it is a watch with a Seiko V64 Mechanical hybrid quartz caliber at 32.768 Hz frequencies, brushed aluminum tachymeter bezel.

Petite sportive

The Orient brand was created in 1951 by Shogoro Yoshida in Japan. It all began in 1901 when the founder opened a watch boutique in the Ueno commercial district of Tokyo. For 50 years, it was able to take advantage of an expanding market and expand to the point of offering its own models. It was only in 1950 that he founded the &ldquo;Tama Keiki Co&rdquo; factory in the town of Hino. The original name of the company was quickly changed to accompany the release of their first model, the Orient Star, in 1951.
The name of the brand comes from the Latin Oriri which means to be born, to rise, to rise. Orient offers high quality, precise watches with unbeatable value for money. It is also known as one of the world's main manufacturers of mechanical watches in volumes.
The range includes models like the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/orient/mako_iii_kamasu"> Orient Mako III Kamasu</a>, the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/orient/bambino_1"> Orient Bambino 1</a>, the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/orient/mako"> Orient Mako</a>, the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/orient/flight"> Orient Flight</a> and the Orient King Star.
<h2 dir="ltr">How much does an Orient watch cost?</h2>
The prices of Orient watches sold on the brand's website are changing between &euro;179 and &euro;1,350 depending on the models and finishes. Count &euro;245 for an Orient Bambino 2 and &euro;449 for an Orient Mechanical Sports.
Orient is owned by Seiko Epson Corporation and produces approximately 2 million watches per year, all models combined. To choose an Orient that best suits you, Dialicious owners' reviews are a valuable resource for evaluating each of the different models through real owner experience.

I present to you my Orient Kamasu which is a Japanese automatic diving watch, I chose at the time this pretty watch for the very special color of its dial a pretty mix of green and black and for its original bezel which is green from 12 o'clock to 3 o'clock and the rest is in black, Orient is an exclusive subsidiary of the Seiko manufacturer and as I have a huge weakness for Japanese watches I had to have this watch which came out after the mako 2 and I do not regret my purchase. Its diameter is 41.5mm its dial width is 13mm and it indicates 20 atm

Even Orient Kamasu 

It is indeed very generous this little unpretentious tool watch, because it gives a lot of pleasure to its owner at a very reasonable price (for a new automatic diver, that is): screwed crown, water-resistant to 200 m, sapphire crystal, stop-seconds, quick-set of date and day, in-house movement, pretty finishes, superb dial with reflections, ... I paid € 180 for it new (delivery included) from an Italian professional about 20 months ago. I wanted a watch that I am not afraid of damaging and that is shock-resistant when I tinker or garden. So of course, it has 2 known defects: a bracelet that is not as qualitative as the watch, and a crown that is quite small and difficult to screw and unscrew. For the bracelet, a Strapcode jubilee specially designed for it or a Nato and the problem is solved. For the crown, you just have to wear the watch as often as possible, and the use of the crown becomes anecdotal (once a month for the date). You see, there is no problem, there are only solutions! Otherwise, the movement is quite precise, at least on mine: I noticed a drift of maximum 10 s/day depending on the positions. Conclusion: the ORIENT Kamasu Mako III is a watch that brings me pleasure when I wear it, and that I find it hard to take off because it is so simple and easy to live with.

A generous watch

This little Japanese diver had been catching my eye for a long time. This limited edition version with a sunray blue and smoked dial and gold touches finally convinced me in the summer of 2022. Small? Not so much because it is almost 42mm in diameter but on the wrist it sits perfectly and seems much smaller. Very controlled thickness thanks to a flat sapphire crystal and a manufacture movement, water-resistant to 200m, it is its sporty and elegant ambivalence, especially in this limited blue/gold version that makes it so cute and endearing. Its weak point remaining its original bracelet (for this price range, we will easily forgive it), I pushed the vice to equip it with a very pretty jubilee bracelet from Strapcode to match the steel/gold style. The icing on the cake, the caliber adjustment shows a daily drift of -2/+2s/day for a watch bought for around €300. Crazy!

A diver with the look of a luxury watch

My summer watch, which I use for vacations, crafts, the pool, the beach... The one I don't spare!
My second automatic watch, I still love it just as much and wear it just as much ☺️
I appreciate its black-green smoked dial that tends towards turquoise in full sunlight. The day and date windows break the symmetry but are essential for me to keep track of time after several days of vacation!
Robust case that withstands shocks, as does its very reliable and precise automatic movement.
The 41.8mm diameter is very comfortable on any wrist thanks to its lug-to-lug width of just 46.8mm. The case thickness is 12.8mm, with a flat sapphire crystal.
The grip of the crown, however, leaves something to be desired. The original metal bracelet is not very comfortable, of average quality, and a little wide at 22mm from end to end; I quickly replaced it with a rubber strap that suits me better.

My summer watch

A small original diver, which, if it is inspired by its illustrious ancestors, has found its own identity. 
The little extra on the graduated bezel: a chevron that marks the graduation every 10 minutes (we could have called it "Stargate")
I also like its smoked dial, sunrayed in its lightest part which brings depth.
We will also appreciate the applied circled indexes which give relief to the whole. To top it all off, they are generously garnished with a cream Luminova with the most beautiful vintage effect.

A solid sapphire crystal completes the whole.
The case, the screwed crown, give a nice impression of robustness with its polished/brushed finish.
We could have wished for sharper edges, but that's asking a lot.
We may regret that the polished aluminum bezel insert is the point that risks getting damaged first.

An Orient house movement brings it to life, with a very satisfactory precision, which gives a beautiful coherence to the whole.

In conclusion, Orient does not make fun of us with this Kamasu, which gives a lot for its price.
A nice piece for those who would like to push the entry door into the watchmaking passion.

Travel to the Orient (and we’ll come back!)

Probably the best diver for less than €250, sapphire crystal, water-resistant to 20 bar, in-house movement, day/date complications, 120-click unidirectional rotating bezel with luminova ball, a very strong Lum (probably one of the best in the collection by the way). All with an incredibly beautiful red sunray dial that varies from intense red to black depending on the light. The only downside is the poor quality strap but which can still be easily replaced, especially with the Strapcode straps specially designed for this model, like the jubilee strap here.

A real diver at a lower cost

The brand Serica was created in 2019 by J&eacute;r&ocirc;me Burget and 3 friends in Paris, France. The name Serica comes from a lost region at the end of the Far East that the Greeks and Romans named it like this. This place echoes the genesis of the brand, which aims to design quality mechanical watches in a neo-retro style, ready to follow you to the ends of the world.
The range includes watches such as the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/4512">Serica 4512</a>, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/5303">Serica 5303</a> and the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/8315">Serica 8315</a>. One of the particularities of this brand is that its name does not appear anywhere on the dial, in order to encourage the enthusiast to buy a design, finishes and proportions, and not just a name. In July 2023, Serica launched the Serica 5303 COSC, a chronometer version certified by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute.
The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/6190">Serica 6190</a> surfing on the bases of the brand's first reference, the Serica 4512. This 6190 follows the stylistic codes of the brand, lyre lugs, a choice of different dials and the possibility of choosing the position of the crown at 3 o'clock or at &ldquo;Destro&rdquo; mode at 9 o&rsquo;clock. This Serica 6190 is powered with the Soprod M100 caliber COSC (Official Swiss Chronometer Certification) certified, like the current productions of the other 5303 and 8315 models.&nbsp;
Since November 21, 2024, Serica has been offering a very daring new collection... A dress watch off the beaten track called &ldquo;Parade&rdquo; under the reference 1174. These 4 figures, like all other Serica references, offer a symbolism derived from the golden number or divine proportions whose ratio between length and width is 1.174... A novelty offered for pre-order at &euro; 1,490 for one delivery planned for March 2025...
<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Serica watch cost?</h2>
The prices of Serica watches change and differ depending on the model. Most cost between &euro; 990 and &euro; 1,890 depending on the models and finishes. The brand's GMT model, Serica 8315 GMT Chronometer costs &euro; 1,890 while the latest model launched by Serica, the reference&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/6190">6190</a> is offered to &euro; 990.

The Orient Mako III Kamasu is an improved and stylized version of the famous Mako III series from the Orient brand. The name "Kamasu" refers to the barracuda, a fish known for its speed and agility, which perfectly matches the aesthetics and performance of this dive watch.
<h3 dir="ltr">What are the technical characteristics of the Orient Mako III Kamasu?</h3>
Design and case
The Mako III Kamasu sports a 41.8mm diameter stainless steel case, slightly smaller than some models in the series, giving it elegance and comfort on the wrist. The case is carefully polished and brushed, providing a premium finish that holds up well to the rigors of daily use. The unidirectional stainless steel bezel, featuring an aluminum insert, is designed for easy and precise handling, essential for measuring dive times.
Dial
The Kamasu dial stands out for its texture and depth, available in several attractive colors such as blue, black, and green. The applied indexes are large and luminescent, ensuring optimal readability even in low light conditions. The hour and minute hands are also coated with luminescent material, and the second hand is distinguished by its arrow-shaped end, adding a touch of dynamism to the design. The day and date display at 3 o'clock is framed, providing clear and crisp reading.
Movement
The Mako III Kamasu is equipped with Japanese automatic movement F6922, renowned for its reliability and precision. This movement has a power reserve of approximately 40 hours and is equipped with modern features such as manual winding and second hand stop (hacking). These features allow for precise timing and increased ease of use.
Bracelet
The Kamasu's stainless steel bracelet is sturdy and comfortable, with a folding clasp and safety clasp, ensuring the watch stays firmly attached to the wrist. Some versions of the Kamasu are also available with a silicone/rubber strap, ideal for use while diving or for those who prefer a sportier style.
Waterproofing and crown
With a waterproofing of 200 meters (20 ATM), the Mako III Kamasu is perfectly suited for swimming, snorkeling and scuba diving. The screw-down crown reinforces this seal, providing additional protection against water and dust. The screw-down case back also contributes to the robustness and durability of the watch.
<h3 dir="ltr">History and heritage of the Orient Mako Kamasu</h3>
The Orient Mako III Kamasu continues the tradition of the Mako series, which began in 2004 with the aim of providing high-quality diving watches at an affordable price. The Kamasu, introduced as an upgraded version of the Mako III, brings subtle but significant changes in design and functionality. The name "Kamasu" evokes speed and agility, qualities that this watch embodies perfectly.
<h3 dir="ltr">How much does an Orient Mako III Kamasu cost?</h3>
The price of the Orient Mako III Kamasu is generally between 200 and 350 &euro;, depending on model and retailer. This competitive price, combined with its technical features and refined design, makes it a very attractive option for diving watch enthusiasts.
In summary, the Orient Mako III Kamasu is a stylish, high-performance dive watch that continues to honor the heritage of the Mako series while providing modern improvements. Its sophisticated design, robust features and excellent value for money make it a top choice for watch enthusiasts and divers.
