The Orient King Diver RA-AA0D02R1HB is a red-dial Weekly Auto Orient King Diver on a steel bracelet. The bezel insert in the photos is black, not red. “Black red” on the old title means a black minute ring and a red dial. It is not a Kamasu, not a Mako, and not a current-catalogue diver.
The dial is a red sunburst with applied bar indexes, an arrow hour hand, and the words Weekly Auto Orient King Diver. The date window is at 3. The day window is at 6, with 22 printed above it, matching the 22-jewel case-back engraving. That 22 is not a power-reserve hand. A black internal minute ring carries a triangle at 12 and white numerals at the ten-minute marks. It sits under the crystal. It is not an external dive bezel.
Case, calibre, and what the photos actually show
A retailer sheet for the same RA-AA0D case, the green sibling RA-AA0D03E, lists calibre F6922 with hacking and hand-winding, about 40 hours, mineral crystal, 43.8 mm wide without the crown, 14 mm thick, 20 mm lugs, 50.5 mm lug-to-lug, and 200 metres. The case back in this gallery is engraved F6922, 22 jewels, Weekly Auto Orient, King Diver, Epson, stainless steel, and water resistant 20 bar. That agrees with the 200-metre figure. Orient’s own current sheet for this reference was not available, so the size figures below come from that shared-case retailer sheet.
A 43 mm or 22 mm figure that still appears in some size filters is not the measurement used here. The lug width on the shared-case sheet is 20 mm.
The crown is at 3, with a second pusher at 4 for the day. The photos do not prove a screw-down crown, so this page does not claim one. The bracelet is stainless steel with a fold-over clasp stamped Orient. One angled frame carries a retailer watermark. One gallery frame shows a see-through case back and an open clasp. Another frame is a solid engraved King Diver case back. The sibling sheet lists a solid case back. This page follows that sheet and does not treat the see-through frame as the back of the unit supplied.

Who it suits
Buy this if you want the King Diver reissue specifically: a red dial, a day and date, and a steel bracelet, and you understand the minute ring is internal. It is a poor substitute for a Kamasu if you want a sapphire crystal and a modern external bezel. It is currently out of stock.

Frequently asked questions
Is the RA-AA0D02R1HB a Kamasu?
No. It is the Weekly Auto Orient King Diver reissue. The dial text, the internal minute ring, and the day window at 6 are not the Kamasu layout.
What movement does the King Diver RA-AA0D02R1HB use?
Calibre F6922. The case back is engraved F6922 and 22 jewels. The shared RA-AA0D sheet lists hacking, hand-winding, and about 40 hours.
How big is the RA-AA0D02R1HB?
The shared-case retailer sheet lists 43.8 mm wide without the crown, 14 mm thick, 20 mm lugs, and 50.5 mm lug-to-lug. A 43 mm figure in some filters is the rounded version of that width.
Is the bezel red?
No. The dial is red. The minute ring in the photos is black, with a triangle at 12. It is an internal ring, not an external dive bezel.
How water resistant is this King Diver?
The case back is engraved water resistant 20 bar, which is 200 metres. This page does not add an ISO diver claim on top of that engraving.
Does it have an exhibition case back?
The matching King Diver frame is a solid engraved back. Another gallery frame shows a see-through back and an open clasp. That frame is not used as proof of the back on the unit supplied. The sibling sheet also lists a solid case back.
