Orient Automatic Watches — Japanese

What is Orient Automatic Watches — Japanese ?

A full range of automatic watches from Orient — a Japanese watchmaker owned by Seiko Epson but engineered independently, with proprietary in-house calibers. Every reference uses Orient's own F6-series movements manufactured in Japan, not shared Seiko architecture. Why it matters Most watches under SGD 1,500 use third-party ETA, Sellita, or Miyota movements. Orient develops and builds its own. Same caliber tier as Seiko, meaningfully lower price.
