I have an Orient M-Force automatic watch that I want to sell. It's a BIG watch (42 mm diameter), stainless steel case and bracelet. If you like them slim and light, stay away from this one. If you like them big and heavy, go for it. :) I will go back to electronic watches (no service needed and doesn't stop if left in a drawer a few days).
It has a power reserve indicator (40 hours which is quite accurate) and day of month. It used to run a bit slow and I complained about it when I got it serviced (cleaned) last year. Should have kept my mouth shut, now it is 1 minute per day too fast! It needs to be tuned again, I don't have the tools to open it so it should be done next time it's cleaned.
It is in good shape, there are minor scratches including two small ones on the glass (which is mineral glass, not saphire). Everything else is OK.
I paid for it about $190 and would let it go for $OLD shipped. If you think that's too much, make me a reasonable offer.
I take PayPal, no MO's ... sorry. Only trade would be a Buck TNT (I'll add cash depending on condition).
 
Update: I finally dared to open it (it's easy with the appropriate tool) and even though I'm no watch expert I figured out the little + ... - thingy must make it go faster/slower. I moved it in really small increments until it looked to me didn't gain anything per hour (the watch in "normal position"). It actually did, the precision was +27sec/day last night but the watch stayed upside-down. I'm testing it on hand now ... 0 seconds drift in 4 hours :)
Lowered to $OLD!
