Orient Star "M45 F8 Mechanical Moon Phase Hand Winding"

　Orient Star's "Classic Collection M45," known for its fantastical design inspired by the Pleiades star cluster, has added a new model, the "M45 F8 Mechanical Moon Phase Hand Winding." As the name suggests, this model features a hand-wound movement with a moon phase display.

　The dial features a classic design with Roman numeral indexes and leaf-shaped hour and minute hands. It also features a power reserve indicator at 12 o'clock, a moon phase at 6 o'clock, and the brand logo at 3 o'clock. The moon in the moon phase display is crafted from white mother-of-pearl, evoking the soft glow of the moon.

　There are two dial variations: the regular model has a white dial with blue hands, while the limited edition model has a gray gradient dial with silver hands. The dial is wrapped to give it a sense of weight and depth.

　The movement, which can be seen through the see-through case back, is the newly developed Cal. F8A62. It boasts a long power reserve of approximately 70 hours. There are many highlights, such as a blue silicon escape wheel and a bridge with striped decoration.

Orient Star "M45 F7 Mechanical Moon Phase"

　The M45 F7 Mechanical Moon Phase, a new addition to the Classic Collection M45, is available with three different dials: white, navy blue, and light blue.

　The dial features a classical design that combines a railway minute circle, Roman numeral indexes, and leaf-shaped hands. It also features a power reserve indicator at 12 o'clock, a moon phase and pointer date at 6 o'clock, and an open heart at 9 o'clock, with an OS mark in the center, giving it a rich, expressive finish.

　The round stainless steel case has a striking 41mm diameter. It comes with a stainless steel bracelet, making it easy to wear in a wide range of situations and seasons. The white dial and light blue dial models come with crocodile leather straps, which can be swapped for a more classic look.

　It features a see-through case back, allowing you to see the finish and movement of the movement inside.

Orient Star "M34 F7 Semi-Skeleton"

　A new variation has also been added to the "M34 F7 Semi-Skeleton" from the "Contemporary Collection M34." Two variations are available: one with a navy blue dial with a sunray finish reminiscent of the Perseid meteor shower, and the other with a chic white dial.

　The power reserve indicator, which is symbolic of Orient Star, is located at the 12 o'clock position, and the small second hand at the 6 o'clock position and the open heart at the 9 o'clock position create a design that allows you to enjoy the movement. The three-dimensional structure, such as the overlapping openings of the small second hand and the open heart and the faceted indexes, is attractive.

　The 41mm stainless steel case features a powerful design based on the constellation Perseus. It features edgy lugs, a finish that combines polished and hairline details, and a stainless steel bracelet that provides a comfortable fit, making it both aesthetically pleasing and practical.

　It is equipped with the Cal. F7F44 movement, which has a high accuracy of +15 to -5 seconds per day and a power reserve of approximately 50 hours, and the striped decoration on the rotor and the perlage on the bridge can be enjoyed through the sapphire crystal on the case back.

Orient Star "Moving Blue - An inspiring blue that connects the world"

　Three new models have been released in Orient Star's popular "Moving Blue - The inspiring blue that connects the world" series, which is inspired by the colors of the sky and sea that connect the world. This time, the theme is "snow light," and the watch features a gradient dial that evokes the dim light of the night reflected by the falling snow.

　This time, the lineup includes the "Modern Skeleton" and "Semi Skeleton" from the Contemporary Collection, and the "Classic Semi Skeleton" from the Classic Collection. In the Modern Skeleton model, in addition to the balance wheel visible at 9 o'clock, skeleton processing is also applied at 2 o'clock and from 4 to 7 o'clock, allowing you to enjoy the internal structure. The sharp case gives the model a sense of strength.

　The semi-skeleton model features an opening at the 9 o'clock position and a power reserve indicator at the 12 o'clock position. While simple, the gold-colored index at 12 o'clock, the second hand, and the brand logo add a touch of contrast. The elegantly curved case is also noteworthy.

　The ladies' Classic Semi-Skeleton model also features a semi-skeleton design at the 9 o'clock position on the dial. The Roman numeral indexes, spade-shaped hour hand, and box-shaped inorganic crystal create a soft, classic impression.

Orient "Orient Stret"

　A new series, "Orient Stretto," has been added to Orient's contemporary collection. Stretto is an Italian musical term for accelerating the tempo to create a climax. The design embodies the uplifting, affluent lifestyle in the city. Three types of 75th anniversary models have been announced.

　The first is the "Orient Stretto Sun and Moon," which features a day and night function, a pointer-type day display, and a date display in a small window.

　The dial features a world map with blue oceans and orange continents. A 24-hour ring surrounds the dial. The ring rotates with the crown at 4 o'clock, allowing users to synchronize it with the local time on the map, giving them an idea of ​​the approximate time anywhere in the world.

　The case back is engraved with text indicating that it is a 75th anniversary model, creating a special feeling.
