Equipped with a unidirectional bezel featuring a clear 60-minute scale and elegant brushing, the bezel is intentionally left uncoloured to highlight the steel's natural texture. This detail enhances both its rugged durability and refined character. The bezel's firm, tactile rotation delivers a satisfying precision that reflects true craftsmanship. With a screw down crown and 200 meters of water resistance, this watch is ready to perform reliably whether you're diving deep or navigating daily life.

The dial design of this piece is a study in refined simplicity, starting with a deep classic black that provides the perfect backdrop for its carefully crafted elements. Bold applied indices catch the light with subtle depth, while slender baton-shaped hands glide effortlessly across the face, blending elegance with clarity. The second hand steals the spotlight with a vibrant yellow outline at its tip, injecting a burst of energy against the dark dial. Both hands and indices are coated with luminous material, ensuring clear legibility from bright daylight to the darkest environments. Anchoring the dial at 12 o'clock is the iconic Orient logo, a mark of heritage and pride, balanced perfectly by "WATER RESISTANCE 20 bar" at 6 o'clock, which highlights the watch's robust capabilities. At 3 o'clock, a neatly framed date window completes the design, balancing functionality with a polished, purposeful layout.

Turning the watch over reveals a screw-down case-back that adds both durability and water resistance, completing the watch's robust build.
