Brand Heritage 品牌緣起

For 70 years, ORIENT has created distinctive timepieces with timeless appeal and in-house designed movements.

ORIENT was founded on the principle that quality mechanical watches, created with traditional techniques and experienced craftsmanship, should be accessible to all. Today, this ethos is visible in a broad range of timepieces that place equal importance on style and substance.

ORIENT watches are contemporary and timeless, capturing Moving Moments at work, at home and at play. Minimal, classic case designs are expertly balanced with elegant evening wristwear and sporty designs that value function as well as form.

ORIENT STAR born from a desire to build a mechanical watch that would be a “brightly shining star” in every way, is particularly valued for its semi-skeleton and skeleton watch designs. These design elements are complemented by expert complications, represented by the ever-popular Mechanical Moon Phase and Skeleton.

Now, ORIENT and ORIENT STAR guard the refined principles of its founders by offering timepieces that suit all people, at all stages of their lives.

Cal. 46 Series Movement

Main movement which replaced the L-type self-winding movement. Wider range of applications because the movement is smaller and thinner. The adoption of a magic lever also provides high winding efficiency. After the merger into Epson, the finish and precision were further improved. This is still ORIENT's primary movement.
