Reviews

At the heart of the timepiece, housed within a 41.5mm stainless steel case, is the highly acclaimed Epson F692 automatic movement. The F692 boasts 22 jewels and the renowned Seiko Diashock anti-shock system, promising accuracy and durability. The mechanical marvel offers a generous 40-hour power reserve, an automatic winding mechanism, and bilingual day display in English and Spanish – a nod to the global appeal of Orient watches.

The case, with a height of 12.5mm, showcases both polished and brushed finishes, crafting an intriguing interplay of textures. The robust stainless steel body is rated at 20 ATM water resistance, made possible by the secured screw-down crown and case back, allowing this timepiece to be a trusty companion even under water.

The shimmering turquoise-blue and deep violet-blue unidirectional rotating bezel is adorned with a luminous dot at the 12 o'clock position and a diving time scale, paying homage to the watch's diving heritage. This colourful bezel offers an additional measure of safety while diving, but its charm lies not just in its utility but also in the spectacular visual effect it creates.

Protecting the watch's face is a premium sapphire crystal glass, a choice that promises exceptional resistance against scratches and sharp blows, all while offering a clear and undistorted view of the stunning dial beneath.

This Mako Kamasu's dial is a delightful interpretation of violet-blue, paired with a matte finish to provide an elegant backdrop to the luminescent appliques. The stick indices, Arabic numerals at 6, 9, and 12, and the finely etched second markers are all neatly arranged, offering ease of reading and a touch of sophistication. Each of these elements is rimmed in silver, creating a pleasing contrast against the dial.

Adding a poetic sense of motion are the silver losange-shaped hands, polished to perfection and suffused with luminescent material. The seconds hand, maintaining the silver theme, sports a beige tip – a subtle detail that adds depth and character to the dial's visual symphony.

The 3-link stainless steel bracelet, matching the case's material and brushed finish, forms a seamless extension of the case. Measuring 22mm in width, it contours perfectly to the wrist, its solid deployment clasp with a safety latch ensuring a secure and comfortable fit.

Every detail of the Orient Mako Kamasu converges to create a masterpiece of horological craftsmanship. It is not just a timekeeping instrument, but a testament to Orient's dedication to excellence in watchmaking. This watch truly transcends the boundaries between functionality and fashion, utility and luxury. It is, in essence, a celebration of time itself.
