General thoughts: For those looking for a larger watch, go for it. Build quality and appearance are well above price point.
Case, bezel, & build quality: Finish is excellent. Bezel ratchet mechanism is smooth. Only negative point here is the glass crystal, should be sapphire.
Strap: Heavy duty rubber. Recommend replacing due to being quite warm.
Movement: The newer F6922 is lovely upgrade over the older Orient movements. Accuracy is within spec, but not great. I found myself adjusting time twice per week.
Hands, markers & lume: The hour and minute hands are matte; the lack of shiny leads to easy readability in bright conditions. Lume is of excellent quality and is very sensitive, displays in green, contrasting with the red bezel. No lume pip on the dive bezel.
Suggested improvements: Sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel, blue lume, larger lume patch on second hand, add lume pip on the bezel.
