I just bought a gen 2. Personnally I really like the logo, looks like medieval heraldry. Nowadays brands tend to normalize their logo and end up simply writing their name in the same font which I think is sad. I hope Orient never change its logo.
That’s a nice point! I mean, It’s not like tobacco logos are ugly because I’m sure that a lot of effort went into them back in the day. I like the comparison you made! Give it some years and everyone will start liking the logo after tobacco logos have been gone for years😁
I have one of these. I had a box with watches in it. I'm working in another state and my wife went through it on Duo with me. "Hey! I forgot about that Orient Ray!" 10 years in a box. 😀😀😀
Haha thank you! It's been a while.. I really like the mini turtle! It's actually a watch I've been considering for a while. I've also put in one or two bids in auctions for one too but without success. Only thing I'm a little unsure of is the cyclops.

Haha I can relate to that! It’s easy to forget about a watch if you have many. It’s about time you bring it back and give it some wrist time!🤙🏼
Welcome back. What do you think of the mini turtle?

I just got one of these myself (blue instead of black). I rather like it.
Nice, congrats! Is it the gen 1 (like this) or the gen 2 without the date change button?
@@NordicWatchChannel yes, it’s the first version with the day pusher. It’s an unusual feature, but there’s a reason it’s there so I dig it.
I quite like it too as I remember stating in this video too :)
Just bought one for 40€, these are a steal nowadays!
Nice catch! Yes they are indeed!
Where did you find it for that price.
Hi bro, can you tell me, what year orient gen 1 was realesed ??
Hi! I couldn't find out with a quick search. I'll look into it some more and get back to you when/if I find out :)
I bought my Oriënt Ray Mk 1 brand new in dec 2013.
Just bought one from ebay used one for 175 dollars
That’s a decent deal :)
