The Orient Mako has been the brand’s most popular series since the mid-2000s, and the Mako II FAA02001B9 is the version that fixed the one thing enthusiasts kept asking about. Where the original ran a calibre with roots in the 1970s, this generation introduced Orient’s in-house F6922 — adding hand-winding, hacking seconds and a quickset day. It also brought a more robust 120-click unidirectional bezel in place of the older 60-click.
The black dial is straightforward dive-watch legibility: applied luminous markers, bold hands, and numerals at 12, 6 and 9. The 41.5mm stainless steel case sits 13mm thick with a 47mm lug-to-lug, which is what keeps the Mako II wearable on wrists that struggle with larger divers. A screw-down crown and fold-over clasp with double push-button safety handle the practical end.
The F6922 runs at 21,600bph with 22 jewels and around 40 hours of power reserve, rated to -15/+15 seconds per day. With 200m water resistance and a mineral crystal, this is a mechanical diver built to be worn rather than kept aside — which is exactly why it has stayed on best-value lists for years.
