  About Self-Winding Automatic Watches   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
For Seiko and Orient watches this is not necessary because they do not, for almost all their models, have a manual wind-up feature.
Watches are water-resistant, not water-proof and are engineered and tested under the assumption that it will be under uniform pressure.
As a general statement watches exposed to extreme temperature changes very quickly, like cold to hot, or hot to cold, will cause expansion and contraction of the watch components and mating parts such as the case back and case, which can give a small droplet of water a momentary opportunity to infiltrate into the watch.

 Review of the Orient Star Ref WZ0091ER by Gary M
Orient Stars are several steps up from even the most expensive “ordinary” Orient watch, and they have always had mechanical movements.
One thing that seems to be quite common for Orient watches destined to be sold in Japan is the rather mundane boxes they are put in.
The English instructions are clear and straight forward and actually do solve one mystery surrounding Orient watches: how to determine what the movement is. Orient uses two parallel methods for identifying their mechanical movements: two letters and a 3-digit number.

 [No title]
One would think that that an attractive watch with an accurate, in-house 21 jewel automatic that could be had for under $300.00 would be the instant darling of the Internet watch discussion forums.
But there is so very little available information (not to mention dealers and supply of watches) that only a small percentage of true watch collecting elite (or those lucky enough to live in or travel to the Far East where the watches are generally available) are familiar with the brand.
Another feature which seems quite common among Orient models is the push button date feature (the small button just to the side of the crown is used to advance the date).

 The Orient CEX05003D
Generally speaking, Orient watches are some of the best watches you can find for the money on the market today.
I probably should have mentioned this earlier, but this is an automatic watch, meaning it has to be worn regularly in order for the watch to keep time properly (the wearer's arm movement winds the watch if worn regularly).
Without this feature, automatic watch wearers are armed with nothing but speculation on how much power is left on their watch before placing it on their night table before bed.

 Orient for Sale
Some excerpts of Adriano's findings are: most of the Orient watches obviously use the Caliber 46943 or a variation of it which is based on the SEIKO Caliber 70xx (7005, 7009 etc).
During the wearing, the watch will gradually wind itself further, after wearing the watch for about 24 hours it should be fully wound.
You can do it when you get the watch new to observe its accuracy, but I do not recommend to keep hacking non-hacking watches, you will one day bend the crown stem and then the watch needs to see the watchmaker.
