Orient Star presents new models (WZ0181EL and WZ0191EL) of its 300M Diver watch. These new references house an automatic mechanical movement with manual winding and second hand stop functions.
The new Orient Star 300M Diver is a full-fledged diver’s watch. Water-resistant up to 300 meters, it has been certified and compliant with JIS standards. It uses a special shock-resistant movement and a helium gas-tight case without an air valve.
It comes with a large screw-in crown that ensures optimum water-resistance. Moreover, the crown is placed at the 4 o’clock position so that it does not interfere with wrist movement underwater.
The power reserve indicator at 2H allows you to always check the remaining running time of the watch. The dial also hosts a date display window at 9H.
The rotating bezel makes it easy to recognize the elapsed time while diving, a luminous light that allows you to know the time even in the dark underwater. By using a sapphire glass with enhanced durability, the watch has been created to give you a sense of security when diving.
The new Orient Star 300M Diver comes with a stainless steel bracelet with a double lock function that prevents it from falling off your arm due to accidental movement. The clasp with a slide adjuster function allows you to adjust the length of the band with one touch. With this new diving watch, the brand is also offering an additional urethane band.
Available in black and yellow dial versions, this model comes with a 2-year warranty and a free inspection after 2 years.
