of water resistance on the Neo70s means you can likely go swimming with this watch, no problem, which also means showering, and especially washing your hands, will not even phase the thing.

It has a very 70’s flair, with a modern twist and sizing, that makes it perfect for the new-retro watch lover. Of course, it’s very important to NEVER push down the chronograph pushers when the watch is getting wet, as that will almost always allow some water in, no matter the water-resistance of your watch. This goes for any chronograph watch, not just the Orient Panda in particular. Please be careful! Odd Date Window

My favorite affordable panda dial chronograph is currently the Orient Neo70sPanda thanks to its well-executed design and a rather affordable price tag. To summarize the panda dial alternatives available, however, the Parnis Daytona is one that comes to mind, paying blatant homage to the iconic and modern Rolex Daytona, at a fraction of the cost. The sides of the case are polished, and consistent throughout the sides of the bracelet. This makes for a watch that is somewhat subdued but definitely has some sparkle. It’s a very well built and well-finished watch, of which, I’d expect nothing less from the Orient brand.

The Zenith Defy El Primero comes in two variations: the panda dial and the reverse panda dial. This is the manufacturer’s flagship watch series and is also one of the most stunning timepieces that we have come across. This timepiece is another high-end luxury watch and features an impeccable watch design that is accompanied by premium-grade materials as well. The top pusher often functions as a start/stop button for the chronograph, and the bottom pusher often functions as a reset. This can vary from model to model, so be sure to look up the documentation for your specific watch if you’re looking for a guide on how to use your chronograph.For all orient values except 'table', default is True. convert_dates bool or list of str, default True
