Contemporary RE-AV0006Y00B, an Orient watch with a brown dial

Introduction

In Akita, Orient Star watches have been hand-assembled since 1951. The Contemporary line applies this expertise to a modern aesthetic, balancing sobriety with attention to detail. This piece, RE-AV0006Y00B, features a brown, open-heart dial.

Case

In terms of dimensions, the RE-AV0006Y00B has a 41 mm diameter and is 13 mm thick, in a stainless steel case. The fixed bezel surrounds a dial with Roman numerals, protected by mineral glass, and at the back, a transparent sapphire case back reveals the movement and its balance wheel; the lug width is 20 mm, for 10 ATM / 100 meters of water resistance.

Movement

Hacking seconds and manual winding make it easy to set the time to the nearest quarter second. This is the case for the piece in question: on the RE-AV0006Y00B, Orient has opted for the F6F44 caliber, an in-house automatic movement, and its power reserve is approximately 50 hours once the movement is fully wound.

Strap

On the RE-AV0006Y00B, Orient has chosen a brown leather strap, secured by a deployant buckle, it connects to the case via a 20 mm lug width.
