Orient Men's Automatic Stainless Steel Diving Watch

The classic Orient diver has been upgraded in several areas, including the debut of the new Orient caliber F6922 and a more robust 120-Click bezel. The 41mm stainless-steel case features a mineral crystal and is water-resistant up to 200m (660ft), making it suitable for professional marine activity and serious surface water sports, but not diving.

Established in 1901, Orient Watch has specialized in the manufacture and growth of mechanical timepieces. Since 1950, the brand has been at the forefront of mechanical watch production in Japan. In fact, Orient may be the biggest watch brand you've never heard of, producing over 2 million watches per year and being one of the top three watch manufacturers from Japan. Importantly, all of Orient's movements are exclusively made in-house in Japan, with no outsourcing in the manufacturing process.

The implicit value of owning an Orient watch lies in its tremendous quality, as the brand prides itself on being a "watchmaker's watch" - a no-frills mechanical watch that is robust and trustworthy. As an in-house movement producer, Orient joins a select group of watch companies that manufacture their own movements exclusively for their own use. This allows Orient to ensure the highest standards of quality for their wristwatches, which have often been praised for their rich styling, dependability, and tremendous value.

The Ray II Rubber is Orient's second generation of its iconic flagship diver model, built in the exact image of its predecessor. While the aesthetic remains near-identical to the original, there are several changes under the hood. The new movement, caliber F6922, is automatic, hand-winding, and hacking, eliminating the need for a second crown that was present on the original model. Additionally, the bezel has been upgraded to a 120-click design, allowing for greater precision in position and timing.

In summary, the updated Orient Ray II Rubber combines the brand's rich watchmaking heritage with modern improvements, delivering a high-quality, reliable diver's watch that represents exceptional value for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
