Provenance and intent.

Difference is that it dosnt try to masquerade as some bona fide deal. And with its price is actually reflective of its movement and construction.

Though on the same level, I think a better deal would be the Tisell Antea Homage, esp since it uses a Miyota 9015

Bought a Orient 65007B as a daily beater from Lazada.

like the PVD look and also slight variation rather than the usual submariner homage look.

anyone familiar with orient as a brand and how the movement fair against the usual eta or miyota?

Orient is a part of Seiko.

Their Bambino is legendary. Their movements are in house.

What do you think?

Homage la. The got the version without the logo also. I find that more eye pleasing.

Hai... I'll have to send mine (similar to the one on your right, just different color) back for servicing, luckily still under warranty. Yesterday after wearing for 12 hours, it ran out of power after 5 hours. I tested the power reserves before, it can last for 47 hours if fully wounded up. I think something wrong with the charging rotor.

Wa.. so suay ah.. is it because you never move your hand much??

10:10 means watch photo time..

the hour mark remind me of Pagol classic watch.
BTW ... what brand is this and what's the damage?

I wear my other automatic watches, most cheaper with more inferior movements for work too, so arm movements can be assumed to be the case, but none of them will run out of power so soon. In fact by the end of the work week, they will be fully charged.

looks is subjective so i'll get that out of the way, Raven has a kickstarter with a similar design which i felt is superior in most ways at 1/10 the cost. movement wise is the only area it edge out being cosc certified.

bermont as a company itself is too gimmicky imo. too much marketing, random collaborations with jaguar, boeing, martin barker(do you buy ejection seats?), kingsman and wright flyer(with some controversy) just so they can jerk up their price to retarded levels. i deem this as being dishonest. a young company such as them should gain goodwill through design and value imo.

when you compare a pelagos with that bremont if they are the same price, other than the look, in what metric does it win? the pelagos has a titanium casing, inhouse movement with silicon hairspring, 3 day power reserve and innovative bracelet. with this, let me ask you, what are you paying for for the bremont?

Raven miyota 9015 vs ETA 2836-2. They same?

As for case It has Bremont’s signature and very unique Trip-Tick case design, their patented Roto-Click internal bezel.. Etc etc

Nice review here
