The "M34 F8 Date" features an original dial with a design theme of the Perseid meteor shower and the latest high-performance movement equipped with a silicon escape wheel, making it a flagship model that paves a new path for Orient Star.
The dial adopts an orthodox design with three hands for the hour, minute, and second, as well as the date at the 3 o'clock position and the power reserve display unique to Orient Star at the 12 o'clock position, while the face of the dial is hand-carved with a pattern inspired by the meteor shower near the constellation Perseus.
The automatic in-house caliber F8N64 is equipped with a silicon escape wheel, which has been Orient Star's technical signature since the "Skeleton" was announced in 2021 to commemorate the 70th anniversary, and has stable high accuracy of plus 15 seconds to minus 5 seconds per day and a power reserve of more than 60 hours of automatic winding.
