Often referred to as an Open Heart dial..The mainspring & balance wheel under the right side,I believe on the left is the escapement..
Indeed you are correct, I always just say open face but open Heart is what it is officially called. I love all my Orient watches, enjoy your shopping iFi :beerchug:

I'm still up in the air on my next Orient, of course my Ti as I'm told is getting more rare all the time and harder to find in good condition but I really like the new Classic v3 model pictured in the background here:

As well as the "KANNO" :grin:

Grand Seiko SBGV245 on nylon (took this a while ago so wrong date).
Reliable in my experience to about +/- 2-3s per 6 months until I adjust for DST.
The seconds hands perfectly hitting each indice is also extremely satisfying.

Grand Seiko you gotta start coming out with better official names for your models than just a salad of numbers and letters :frowning2:

Bought a banged up TH Professional 200m to be used as my daily driver, gonna have the battery changed and a thorough buffing while I'm at it. I got it because it was going for a good price (due to its condition, plus the missing lume on the 12 o'clock mark on the bezel) and its blue dial. I bought this a few days back....

This Seiko Prospex Alpinist Ginza Limited Edition arrived earlier today, I've not even adjust the date and time as I'd only wear it on Christmas Day itself, it's a sorta Christmas gift to myself for being such a good boy!:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I fell in love with the lovely dial...

Congrats. It's a great watch, and looks amazing too. I ditched the steel strap and got a killer rubber one years ago. Either way, it's a beauty and a beast.

Wow... very handsome. Great looking movement and dial. And I love those quick-release pins.

It's a lovely elegant watch and from what I can not all that expensive considering what one gets in return. Good stuff!
