Gift from my grandfather. Fake?

Hi guys, hope you all are doing great.

I google the model number of this watch and did not found anything similar. Fake? What are your thoughts?

Strapcode on Kamasu

I have Replaced Islander Oyster style with Strapcode. Better looking, thick links and thick springbars.

Kamasu 2 acquired + Screw Down Crown

Somehow got the last Kamasu 2 with the teal dial in the whole area of tokyo. Weird question though, how do I actually screw down the crown properly on this watch? What currently works for me is that I would just push the crown then rotate clockwise, but from what I saw in YT I need to push - slightly have force on the crown rotate counterclockwise until you heard a click - then rotate clockwise again to lock it properly. Do I still need to do this, even though my crown feels secured? If possible can anyone share their experience with this? It would be really helpful.

Mako 40 (Diver II) in green

Has anyone got any in person photos of the colour of this watch? I’m desperately trying to get it but I haven’t seen any in person photos and it looks like a colour that might shift a little in person

Taking A Break from my Apple Watch.

I love my Orient Kamasu, and even though I let go of most watches in my collection, I will keep this forever!

Is this fake?

So I bought this watch online pretty fast because the dealer accepted an offer i made on it for 45 euro. But afterwards I started looking into it more and I couldnt find one watch with this type of red fume dial on another tristar from the same time. He said it was from the early 80s. I aknowledge that the spotting is more likely than not damage but i found it quite attractive nontheless. Also the dates in chinese I think.

Just got an Orient Tristar Crystal Automatic movement

Any idea whether the case of this watch is original? Usually the back case of the watch is engraved with the orient logo, this one looks printed

Kamasu aftermarket bracelets

I’d like to swap the factory bracelet on my Orient Kamasu (as I’m sure many of you have) and I’d like to see what aftermarket bracelets you’ve put on for some inspiration. Pictures and details of what model and where you got them from would be greatly appreciated

Edit: I know the date is not correct, this is a very old photo and it’s just the most recent one I could find

My first automatic Orient, any info on these would be appreciated

Picked up this used orient star. Pictures don't do it justice, the blue dial looks grey-black indoors. Overall looks bery classy with the polished bezel.

But I have no idea what year it's from or anything other than specs (though water rating isn't obvious, just says "water resistant")

Model name is EXOC-CO

Orient Mako 40 75th Anniversary Edition. My first watch.

I don’t know much about watches. Just decided I wanted one to wear during my upcoming wedding and this one matches my tie color. I need to remove a link though. It’s a little loose even after micro adjusting.
