The rim around the face, rotates continously and sparkles. About $12-$15.00 Was told they we're only made for V.I. Very popular 10-15 yrs. ago.

I just bought an Orbit watch in August. They are still around in a couple of shops, but not as readily available as in the past. Choice of colors. Still nice leather bands. A real steal at the price, about $10-$12. I bought mine in a shop in Palm Passage. When I got back to the resort, I saw that the tiny printing on the face said "St. Maarten" (or St. Martin). I returned the watch next time I was in town it was replaced with a Virgin Islands watch with no problem. The shopkeeper was happy to be made aware of the mistake.
