The Watch

Japanese watchmaker Orient is rooted in craftsmanship, precision, and pure excellence - dressing the wrists of men and women with breathtaking timepieces designed to mark every meaningful moment in their wearers' lives. An Orient watch is above all a reliable, elegant, and high-quality companion that stands the test of time with timeless beauty. The brand presents its Mechanical Classic RA-AK0702Y. Thoughtfully designed for men, it draws on the codes of traditional classic style with a retro flair and resolutely modern lines. It pairs effortlessly with any outfit, adding that chic, refined edge that sets you apart. Its case features a round shape with a diameter of 40.50 mm and a length of 46.50 mm. Comfortable to wear, it is crafted in stainless steel and topped with a domed mineral crystal. The case houses a screw-down crown at 3 o'clock for manual setting and winding of all watch functions. The watch features a snap-on transparent caseback that ensures 3 ATM water resistance while offering a stunning view of the movement.

The Dial

Blending vintage style with modern design, the round-shaped dial will captivate you at first glance. With a matte finish, it comes in beige and features thoughtfully designed time markers that give you a retro feel at every moment. It is swept by two dauphine hands and a slim seconds hand in navy blue. They indicate the hours, minutes, and seconds with precision. The outer ring features two minute tracks, one graduated in 1/5th increments, and Arabic numerals every 5 minutes. Even hours are marked by Roman numerals while odd hours are indicated by baton indexes, except for 3 o'clock - replaced by a white-background date window. A 24-hour sub-dial sits at 5 o'clock and a day sub-dial is positioned at 10 o'clock. Finally, the brand places its name at 1 o'clock as its signature.

The Movement

This watch is powered by a Japanese automatic movement, renowned for its reliability and outstanding performance, offering a 40-hour power reserve. Fitted with 22 jewels, it is specifically the in-house caliber F6B22. It beats at 21,600 vibrations/hour, ensuring the accurate operation of the hands, date window, and sub-dials. Your reading of hours, minutes, seconds, date, and day will remain precise and reliable throughout the day.

The Strap

This watch's strap is crafted from bovine leather and draped in a refined brown tone. Reinforcing the watch's vintage spirit, it features tone-on-tone stitching and adds a touch of modernity and refined elegance to your look. Comfortable and pleasant to wear, it offers an exceptional feel against the skin while delicately framing your wrist. Its pin buckle in stainless steel makes it easy and secure to fasten.

Water Resistance

This watch offers a water resistance of 3 atmospheres, or 30m. This model is designed for dress wear - not water adventures! It shines at social events and receptions, but aquatic environments are not its forte. It can handle rain, splashes, or dishwater without issue, but nothing beyond that. We strongly advise against wearing it in the shower or bath, and even more so against swimming or diving with it.
