Anybody have any experience with the Orient Mako? Christmas is around the corner and I've set myself the challenge of finding the best automatic watch for the LOWEST price. Quite a challenge. I stumbled upon this gem and with only a select few retailers in Europe, it is both unique and CHEAP. It costs around 135 Euros.

Funnily enough people are stating it has the same quality finish and movement as many thousand dollar watches. I'll check it out soon.

Well I dont own one but looked at several and they are really good looking watches, can't say to much but the finish was really nice and for the price you can't go wrong.
There are a lot reviews online just check them out.
Orient Mako CEM65001M Automatic Diver Watch Review

Just not feeling their logo but thats just a personal thing I guess

I saw a lot of orient stuff mentioned in the same threads when I was researching Seiko divers. They do seem to be very good bang for the buck watches. The black mako is nice looking watch for the $$.

Thanks guys. I've read nothing but positive reviews. This will probably end up being my Xmas gift for this year, so I might be rockin' a black or blue Mako after the 25th.

Not a fan of the yellow or orange.
