Orient Star Semi-Skeleton Men Automatic Limited Edition

Orient Star has released a new model from the Contemporary Collection M34 F7, The new model depict the aurora’s ephemeral light in the dawn sky with mother-of-pearl dial and gradation. Design inspiration is taken from the aurora including a strong, sharp case shape – a key design feature of the Contemporary Collection is named after the star cluster in Perseus.

Space and the natural world are key themes of Orient Star, which is dedicated to producing “shining star” watches. The beautiful designs of Orient Star’s iconic semi skeleton and romantic moon phase are enhanced by the image of the aurora at dawn.

The mother-of-pearl dial, whose colour shifts at different angles, and vertical light grey gradation beautifully depict the scene of an aurora floating in the hazy pale-hued atmosphere just before sunrise. The dual curved sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both sides (SAR coating) of the glass provides a clear view of the aurora gradually fading away. Mechanical watch fans will be charmed by the new models’ aesthetics and chic, serene dials.

High-quality stainless steel (SUS316L) for the case and bracelet, and the sharp, powerful case design lies in contrast to the delicate hairline and mirror finish of the Sallaz polishing. The metal bracelet with short pitch H-shaped links for a better fit on the wrist.

The new model is powered by the automatic (with hand winding) in-house calibres which provide high accuracy of +15 seconds to –5 seconds per day and power reserve of 50 hours. The movements with Geneva stripes and chamfer finish are visible through the see-through sapphire crystal case back, which is engraved with limited edition and serial number.
