Utilizzo dell'orologio
Movimento automatico
Your Orient Star watch is powered by an automatic mechanical movement. This means it is wound by the motion of your wrist. When worn regularly, the watch will maintain its power reserve. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it will stop. Simply manually wind it as described in the Setup section, or wear it for several hours to restart and build up the power reserve.
Indicatore di riserva di carica
The dial features a power reserve indicator, typically located at the 12 o'clock position. This gauge shows the remaining running time of the watch. A full indicator signifies maximum power reserve (approximately 50 hours), while an empty indicator means the watch requires winding or wearing.
Small Seconds Sub-dial
The small seconds sub-dial, located at the 6 o'clock position, displays the seconds independently from the main hour and minute hands, offering a classic aesthetic and precise timekeeping.
