Scratch and Dent - Orient Automatic Sun and Moon Watch with Blue Dial, Sapphire Crystal #ET0T004D

This is a scratch and dent Orient Sun and Moon watch. The winding rotor was loose. Fixed. The watch shows some signs of use.

The Sun and Moon combines classic design combined with high functionality for a truly unique aesthetic. The intricacies of the dial are immaculate and one could say that it crosses the watch from the executive look to classic territory. From the concentric pattern on the other ring to the guilloche-styled finish on the interior and sub dials, the new Sun and Moon has all the markings and embellishments of a luxury watch. What will also be noticed is the incredible depth of the dial—from the looks of the date window cut out, it appears as though the dial is built in layers. This comes as no surprise as the case is measured at 14.1mm thick.

The day indicator sub dial is embossed and the sun and moon indicator is raised above all. The silver hands and white Roman numerals contrast nicely with the rich blue dial. The color contrast drawn from the sun and moon disk, red Sunday highlight, and Orient logo, really ties the look of the watch together.

This watch has a sun and moon (or AM to PM) indicator between 10 and 11:00 on the dial. The date is between 7:00 and 8:00 with the day of the week shown in a sub-dial between 2:00 and 3:00. The watch is powered by a Orient made 21-jewel automatic (self-winding) movement and it is housed in a brushed 42.5mm stainless steel case. A sapphire crystal is included to guard against scratches. The watch comes with an alligator grained blue leather strap with a deployant clasp.
