Orient 40.5mm Sentinel Automatic + Hand Wind Watch with Black Dial #AC05001B

The modern design of the Sentinel is what really makes this watch stand out. For instance, the dial employs a concentric pattern in the center that transitions into a sunburst finish along the outer edge. This creates a neat reflection effect, and allows light to catch the dial in a truly unique way. The hands also play a role in the uniqueness of the design, with a cut out rectangular hour hand opposite a broad minute hand.

The modest 40.5mm size of the Sentinel makes it instantly wearable for most. The case is mostly brushed stainless steel, with the exception of the black PVD bezel and the caseback (which is an exhibition window). The Sentinel is one of the first Orient models to be powered by the new caliber F6722 movement, which is automatic and can be hand-wound. It also can be hacked (second hand stops when you pull out the crown).
