watches Orient Contemporary Flusso RA-BB0201S

The Orient Contemporary Flusso RA-BB0201Sexpands the range of affordable, superbly crafted models with mechanical movements in the Contemporary collection. It buildson the distinctive design of the iconic SK (Super King) model, which gained popularity in the 1970s and 1980s. The new Flusso line brings its characteristic shapes into the present and combines them with a modern take on sporty watches designed for everyday wear.

The most striking feature is the case with a seamlessly integrated steel bracelet, creating the impression of a visually unified whole. The four recessed elements at the corners of the case and the line on the side of the crown reference the original SK model, while the left side of the case and the bracelet’s finish harmonize with the name of the Flusso collection, which means “to flow” in Italian.

The silver-white dial with a subtle sunburst finish offers simplicity and clarity, enhanced by applied hour markers and bold hands. For better readability in low-light conditions, the watch hands are luminescent. The dial also references its predecessor with subtle details in the form of the numerals. Many will appreciate the absence of a date window, which gives the dial a clean and balanced look.
A sapphire crystal with high scratch resistance protects the dial. 

The watch is powered by an Orient F6522 self-winding mechanical movement with a power reserve of approximately 40 hours. Of course , the movement also features manual winding and a hacking function that stops the seconds hand when setting the time.

With a water resistance rating of 100 m, the watch is suitable not only for everyday wear but also for swimming. With a case diameter of 39 mm, the Orient Flusso RA-BB0201S30B is an excellent choice for both men and women and is generally an appealing option for anyone looking for a distinctive mechanical watch with high-quality craftsmanship and a nod to the brand’s history.
