Orient Star Retro Future Car Concept Automatic YFHAB001D
« on: July 04, 2016, 07:19:47 AM »
Under the premium line of Orient Star, there is a sub-line of watches called the Retro Future Series that is unique that set it aside from other lines under the Orient brand. The watches under this series are designed outside the contemporary norm of a ‘typical’ wristwatch.



Of all the Retro Future models available, I prefer the “Car Concept”. The square-like shape is characteristic of 1950s design cars. Some other unique classic car-inspired designs on this model include the steering wheel-like skeleton eye, the speedometer-like seconds sub-dial, the automatic gear gauge-like power reserve indicator and the stainless steel band that recalls the textures of a whitewall Goodyear tire.



The watch uses the in-house Orient Caliber 46S50. This is an automatic 23 jewel with a beat speed of 21,600 BPH.
