Black bay anyday bro

The tag like look jin sui also, black Bay more wu hua?

Agreed with gx84, tudor bb ftw!

yes, both also ETA if i am not wrong
but tudor looks better and got more wrist presence.
and of course, if you wanna sell, also won't lose that much.

i am loving mine and i used to own a aquaracer

Kashix... why not try both watches? Take photo and post here =)

Both watches are highly suited for regular office and casual dress code.

In general public,(let's exclude people who are into watches) people has a higher brand recognition of tag heuer than Tudor. All thanks to their aggressive advertising campaigns and hiring influential people like CR7 to endorse their watches.

If you are looking for "instant recognition", then go for Tag heuer aquaracer.
but if you intend to sell the watch a few yrs down the line...then go for Tudor bb

never flash rank?

Me just a Clerk. Flash also bo Yong

mine is the plain s/steel, white dial, black leather band Orient Star Classic EL05004W.

Even my Orient Mako XL as well... highly accurate. Iirc I worn it for a week with only a few seconds difference.

I guess it's down to Orient Re engineering their movements. I read somewhere that for many automatic movements, there is usually a few additional layers of gears and parts between the rotor and spring coil. And these parts actually cause certain energy wastage.

What Orient did was to remove some of these unnecessary parts and layers, so that as much energy from our wrist movements can be transferred to the spring coil. They also made the rotor disc bi directional.

Can't wait to hoot orient star

You're looking at the bracelet version?

Cheapest I have seen for leather strap is ~$380. Bracelet V probably costs more. Skywatches so cheap?
