Orient is gearing to expand its bestselling Classic and Simple Style series with four new references. The series is known for its traditional aesthetics featuring a retro dome-shaped glass and slender lugs, but a few design updates have been incorporated for the new models.

Attired in a 40.5mm stainless steel case, Roman numerals have replaced the original bar indices for a refreshing look, all the while upkeeping the series’ vintage appeal. Additional subdials, alongside the day-date and 24-hour indicators, are also implemented. As for power, the new models are operated by Orient’s in-house F6B22 automatic calibre, which is geared with stable accuracy, 40 hours of power reserve, and a 30m water resistance.

Four color dial options comprising a simple white, neutral ivory, understated gray, and an elegant Bordeaux are offered as newly introduced colorways. Each version also comes with a different leather strap, spanning black, brown, gray, and Bordeaux. The assortment of watches is due to be released on Orient’s official online shop this coming July. Keep an eye out on the brand’s website and social media for updates on prices and availability.
