About a month or so ago there was a poll asking if there was support for a watch forum.  Did that ever happen?

I purchased my first 'nicer' watch about a year ago.

It is a Citizen Eco-Drive Titanium

Last week I ordered an Orient Esteem that should get to me in a couple days.

Today my wife and I were walking around a mall and we stopped in a watch store. I walked out with my best watch yet, complements of my beautiful wife.  This Hamilton Khaki (pictured below) is mine.

I have one with a chestnut leather band. They are fantastic. I love the back. 21jewels automatic FTW

I just checked out the Hamilton line on Amazon, nice watches.  I think I'm going to pick up a Kind Pilot.

There are MANY watch forums on the interweb. Not to be a watch snob(but I am!), but Citizen is a lower priced(not cheap) watch, even Hamilton is just breaking into what many consider to be the low side of the high end/luxury watch market.

Yes, there are many.  Some of which I've been reading lately. But I like the arfcom format and would enjoy a watch forum here more than elsewhere on the web.

As much as I'd have liked to get one of the Victorinox or other pricier watches I was putting my dirty prints on today, it just wasn't in the books.  My wife also got a Coach bag earlier in the day.  I'll eventually put at least one high end watch in the collection.

What is thought of the Orient brand?  I know it's not any where near high end but is it a decent time piece for a beginner enthusiasts/collector?
