in several articles in google, it is just one of at least four "reasons".Originally Posted by bloowolf
Found it. Real reason is “symmetry”. There are exactly 14 Roman numerals on each side when IIII is used.
tradition is indeed difficult to fathom, sometimes.
but yes, your "symmetry" theory seems logical, just by looking at the face.

The cut-off roman numeral "X" on the dial due to the day sub-register doesn't bother me at all.

March 8th, 2019 08:31 PM #5Hahaha! I don't want to get into watches. It's a very expensive hobby and it's more of a man thing. Focus lang ako sa Orient, ma mesmerize lang talaga ako sa sun&moon and liking the open heart. Nagulat din ako that for a nice looking watch, it's so affordable.

March 8th, 2019 11:01 PM #8That is the power reserve. It tells you how much juice you have so you can wind it up. That is a beautiful watch. I like the detail on the dial. What do they call it? Originally Posted by _Cathy_

Looks similar to this. I like the blue hands contrast with the whitish dial.

March 8th, 2019 11:01 PM #9^ i think that's it.
Non hackable pa movement niyan. If i'm not mistaken 2014 pa release nito. I actually like the champagne dial w/ electric blue hands on stainless steel bracelets. It looks a bit kitschy but it works for me.

Skin care routine? Ah...soap and water...and less outdoors activity for now. I had no idea that movies/hollywood can make that much of an impact on a brand.
Staying out of the sun to have nice skin is true pala :P

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk I only google imaged "Orient Watches" and saw it. I am also curious to know what the watch is called.
Why are the numbers weird? It's a mix of Roman and non-numerals. Originally Posted by tsupermario

March 11th, 2019 05:57 PM #12The Bambino also has different versions. IMO, that's one of the most bang-for-the-buck dress watches that you can have, at par with some Seiko 5 series watches. Originally Posted by _Cathy_

Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk Why is the seamaster very popular among watch enthusiasts? (based on the posts here) It seems like you like blue, I remember you posted a nice blue seiko and of course your Orient sun and moon (which made me want to buy one for myself)
OT: Can you share with me your skin care routine? :P
