Contemporary Watch RA-AC0F17Y

The Watch

The Orient watch is a modern yet elegant creation that will delight lovers of refined, understated timepieces. The round case is crafted from high-quality stainless steel with a polished, high-shine finish that catches the light beautifully. At 41mm in diameter and 11.7mm thick, it wears comfortably while making a confident statement on the wrist. Transparency is cleverly built into this watch with a screwed transparent caseback, offering a captivating view of the intricate movement within.

The Dial

The Dial of this Orient watch is a textbook example of minimalist design and visual efficiency. The matte brown finish ensures optimal legibility even in direct sunlight. The applied silver hour markers create a clean contrast for precise timekeeping, complemented by a minute track that makes it easy to read the time at a glance. The hands move in perfect synchrony, displaying hours, minutes, and seconds with exceptional clarity. A date window at 3 o'clock adds everyday practicality, all protected by a mineral crystal for reliable durability.

The Movement

Powering this watch is an Orient automatic movement, the Calibre F6722. This impressive Japanese-made caliber is built for reliability and long-term performance. Operating at a frequency of 21,600 vph, it delivers admirable timekeeping accuracy. A power reserve of 40 hours gives the wearer excellent autonomy, even when the watch isn't worn every day.

The Strap

Another standout feature of this watch is its brown cowhide leather strap with a striking crocodile-embossed pattern. This material choice adds a timeless, classic elegance to the timepiece while keeping it supremely comfortable on the wrist. At 22mm wide, the strap creates a harmonious silhouette between case and wrist. The tang buckle allows for a quick, secure fit, while the subtle contrast stitching running along the strap adds a refined finishing touch.

Water Resistance

When it comes to water resistance, this Orient watch is built to withstand pressure up to 5 ATM, equivalent to 50 meters underwater. This makes it perfectly suited for everyday exposure to water - accidental splashes, handwashing, or light rain. However, it is not designed for prolonged submersion or intense water activities.
