A GADA dive watch
Orient Kamasu
Specs
| Case Size | 42mm |
| Movement | Orient caliber F6922 automatic |
| Water Resistance | 200m |
The Mako is the Orient’s most popular dive watch, but the Kamasu, which means “barracuda” in Japanese, has a more classic look. It has lume-filled geometric applied indices and an arrowhead hour hand.
With 200m water resistance, the Kamasu actually outperforms the modern Seiko 5 Sports dive watch collection in the water. It also has a similar engine under the hood. So, all things considered, Orient has its cousin beat in the entry dive watch department.
The anniversary model
Orient Bambino IX 75th Anniversary Edition
Orient created a whole suite of watches to celebrate its 75th anniversary, but the most classic option is the Bambino IX, which has a day subdial and moonphase. The dial is accented with heat-blued hands and applied Roman numeral indices.
The standout feature of the dial is the brand logo. For the anniversary collection, Orient brought back its original script logo from the 1950s, but it only appears on six references, including two of the Snoopy collaborations.
