The Orient RA-AR0008E from the Orient Contemporary line expands the collection of popular Semi-Skeleton models and refreshes it with new bright colours. With its simple look and set of features, it is a great choice for everyday wear and can also serve well for formal occasions.
The case of the Orient RA-AR0008E30B watch is made of stainless steel and inside we find a mechanical movement with automatic winding Orient F6S22 with a power reserve of around 40 hours. The movement also offers manual winding and a seconds hand stop function when setting the time (so-called hacking). Many will appreciate the view of the balance wheel of the movement at the 9 o’clock position, the so-called "open heart". Another interesting feature is the off-centre seconds hand at the 6 o’clock position. The operation of the movement, working at a frequency of 21600 vibrations/hour, can be observed thanks to the transparent case back.
The green, highly legible dial is protected by a sapphire crystal. Especially in the light, it attracts attention with an interesting finish. The watch also pleases with details such as contrasting gold hands and applied indices at the hour positions, or a signed crown. The water resistance of this model is 50 m, ensuring resistance when in contact with water during rain, hand washing. The case is complemented by a practical steel strap finished with a folding clasp with side opening. Thanks to the case diameter of 40,8 mm, the watch will fit most men’s wrists.

The Japanese Orient watch is known for several iconic models (for example, Orient Bambino, Orient Mako, Orient Calendar). Diving watches in particular are of great interest. Orient began producing watches in 1950 and is known for its philosophy that it is not necessary to invest a lot of money in marketing, but rather to reduce the affordable price and increase quality. Thanks to this, the Orient watch reaches an imaginary top in its price range.
Helveti.eu is an authorized dealer and specialist of the Orient brand.
