Thank you; while your arm and wrist were quite clear in the picture, the name of the watch was not and what I now know is a modern (and large) version of the Tudor rose wasn't either.
Anyway, I am rather partial to Tudors, and long may you enjoy the watch.
Thank you for posting these pictures. How old is it?
Pursuing watch sites, I must say that some of the 1950s Tudors - with the dauphine hands, and classical looks, are exquisite.
Curious to know if Orient watches come with a unique serial number and/or certificate of authenticity. Tried contacting Orient about this with no response.
Not as far as I know. I've just taken my Mako off and checked and it doesn't have a unique serial number and it definitely didn't come with a certificate of authenticity. Then again, it only cost a hundred quid.
Looking to get a rolex, just trying to be patient and get this one at a decent price.

To each their own, but IMO two tone looks great on the right type of watch.
I'm not a Rolex guy, but the two-tone Datejust with a champaign dial is definitely a classic and is something that I could see myself wearing. Two tone on a Sub or a Yachmaster is not to my taste, but I think it looks right at home on a Datejust.
Apparently I'm not the only one that feels this way, as I see a lot of two tone Datejusts "in the wild."
It's just my experience but two tones are usually not as popular among watch collectors, as far as I can tell from watch forums.
My understanding is to avoid all gold watches due to the little amount of gold coating that is that is on the watch itself.
Everything that I have read suggest to get a two-tone watch if you want a gold watch it will last longer.
In any case I don't like gold watches so none of this really affects me.

Just because two-tone watches aren't popular, it doesn't mean you shouldn't buy one. You're buying the watch for you, not for what others think about it.
Uh yeah dude, I was just saying I don't like it and some others don't like it.
No need to pontificate. Save your sermon for your congregation.
