i couldn't really warm up to Orient automatics due to their (slowwww) 18800bph...it's not so obvious in a small seconds design though...

personally it's a turn off for me, no offence to others  ;)

Orient star has 21600 bph as far as I  know though.
Hmm. In regards of the classic it stand out for me design wise ut the only thing holding me back is the mineral glass that is domed and the water resistance.

Slow beat rates are alright. Not that bad except the second hands does stutter sometimes.

Omega co-axials have slow beat rates and the second hands does seem less smooth. But in time, you will get used to it.

Slow beat rates does lessen wear and tear on the gears and also tend to have more power reserve theoretically.

Sorry another newbie question would be what else would fall under the RM1500 range and perhaps some recommendations as well?

Im so sorry as i only manage to see the price tag for BNIB mostly same with the listed price in AD. I did not walk in as i feel the owner not very friendly (nothing against him, just my gut feeling) and i certainly do not want to risk of taking out my credit card n kaching.
