With all the features above, especially the sapphire crystal, you would expect this watch to go well over $500 but its averages around just below $200. The sun and moon phase is functional and not just for looks, as well. Let's take a dive into this water resistant and affordable automatic watch for men.

Summary
The Orient Sun and Moon Phase Version 3 Automatic is probably the best deal I have come across. Affordable quality doesn’t even come close to describing this watch in my opinion. With the sapphire crystal, hacking movement and sun/moon phase together, you could easily spend over $500. However, the Version 3 comes in at under $200 and thats a game changer price. Orient watches have always been known for their quality and affordability but I truly believe they have outdone themselves on this one. I highly recommend this automatic watch for a first time buyer or to add to your collection.
