Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

This series of watches is greatly inspired by the motorcycles of the 50’s. At the time, motorcycles were valued for their sense of style and individualism. Likewise, this collection offers a more stylistic approach as well as a sense of freedom from conformity. Notice how this watch has its unique designs on the dial such as the hour indicators on the crystal glass instead of the surface of the dial. This makes it the perfect watch for those individuals who value uniqueness in quality and taste.

Orient’s retro collection’s best attribute is the design of the dial. Notice how this watch follows the motif of motorcycles in the industrial age. Not only does this semi-skeleton allow for the owner to see the motion of the balance wheel, but it also shows the stem as well.

Both the power reserve indicator (located on the 12 O’clock indicator) as wells the second hand (located on the 6 O’clock indicator) demonstrates the look of a speedometer of a motorcycle. A power reserve indicator indicates how much power is left in the springs of a watch. Another interesting attribute to the dial is the luminescent hour indicators, hour hand, and minute hand.

When looking at the side of the watch, you will notice the contours running around the bezel (the ring of the watch) and the hexagonal shaped crown (a time-setting piece on the side of the watch). The crown is a screw down which means that it prevents water from entering the case. This watch also has an exhibition caseback so that the owner is able to view the mechanics of the watch through the glass. Both the exhibition caseback and the bezel are finished metals. However, the case comes in matte finish.

The band for this watch comes in solid stainless steel. One of the more interesting features of this metal band is the barrels on the side that separate the links. This characteristic marks a sportier look to the collection. Last but not least is the clasp. You will notice that the clasp is a deployment clasp, which prevents the watch from coming off inadvertently. There are 3 different variations to this watch. All of the difference lies in the color of the dial, which are: yellow, navy blue, and black.
