Male watches Orient Contemporary Stretto Sun & Moon RA-AK0315L

Orient Contemporary Stretto Sun & Moon RA-AK0315L bring elegant, universally styled watches suitable for everyday wear and more formal occasions, and expand the range of affordable and well-made models with mechanical movements in the Contemporary line.

Models Orient Stretto are based on the design of the popular Semi Skeleton model and are also inspired by the city skyline. Wedge-shaped indices resemble skyscrapers, while the circular embossing under the indices represents arches that often appear in modern architecture. The brushed finish of the case and steel strap is suitably broken up by polished elements that highlight the lines of the watch.

The case of the Orient RA-AK0315L30B watch is made of stainless steel. It is complemented by a steel strap which, compared to straps, stands out for a longer service life and makes the watch more versatile.
The watch features a blue dial with a subtle sunburst effect and contrasting applied indices at the hour positions. The dial area is also suitably complemented by distinctive hands. It is protected by a sapphire crystal with high scratch resistance. For better readability in reduced light conditions, the watch is equipped with luminescent filling of the hands and lumi dots at the indices.
The watch is powered by the Orient F6B24 mechanical movement with automatic winding and a power reserve of 40 hours. A standard function is stopping the seconds hand when setting the time (so-called hacking) and an interesting complication is the day/night indicator at the 5 o’clock position, with a disc showing a scene of the Moon and the Sun. Unusual is also the day indicator in the sub-dial at the 10 o’clock position, and the date display at 3 o’clock is also present. The operation of the movement, working at a frequency of 21600 vibrations/hour, can be observed thanks to the Transparent Case.

The water resistance of this model is 50 m, so the watch can easily withstand normal contact with water, such as rain and hand washing. Thanks to the case diameter of 41,5 mm, the watch fits well on most men’s wrists.
