Orient Star has launched a new series of limited-edition skeleton watch models inspired by the colours of the sky and sea. This includes three new models: Modern Skeleton and Semi Skeleton from the Contemporary Collection, and the smaller Classic Semi Skeleton from the Classic Collection.
Each watch has a vibrant blue dial reminiscent of the sea and sky illuminated by the morning sun, and is engraved with a limited-edition serial number on the case back.
The eye-catching blue dial is inspired by the morning. The design motif of the beautiful blue sky and sea, illuminated by the sun emerging from the horizon, represents the beginning of a day full of energy. The exquisite vertical gradation from turquoise blue to green symbolises the sky and the sea whose colours are constantly changing from the moment the sun rises.
Limited to 1,200 units worldwide, the Orient Star Modern Skeleton (reference RE-AV0122L) exudes sportiness with a dual-layered dial consisting of a turquoise blue to green gradation on the upper layer and a green lower layer underneath.
Offering the same turquoise blue to green gradation dials, the Semi Skeleton RE-AT0017L is available in a limited edition of 850 pieces, and the Classic Semi Skeleton RE-ND0019L is limited to 400 pieces.
The sunburst finishing on all three models evoke the sun’s rays, while the rose gold colour used throughout – such as on the hands and Orient Star logo, the indices on Modern Skeleton and Semi Skeleton, and the crown on the Classic Semi Skeleton, symbolises the brightness of the morning sun. The case back is engraved with a limited-edition serial number.
Each timepiece comes with both a high-quality stainless steel (SUS316L) bracelet and a blue calf leather strap that further enhances the gradation on the dial, allowing the wearer to change the strap according to preference.
