Distinguished Japanese watchmaker Orient Star has announced a Next Generation addition to its Mechanical Moon Phase collection, originally unveiled in 2017.
This newcomer boasts a flowing water motif on its dial. The soft curves of the stamped design, reminiscent of a flowing river in shades of navy and grey. Complementing the motif are Roman numeral indices, adding a touch of classic sophistication to the overall aesthetic.
Crafted with typical attention to detail, the Next Generation Orient Star model features a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both sides, ensuring optimal visibility without unwanted glare.
The case and metal bracelet are constructed from high-quality corrosion-resistant stainless steel (SUS316L), guaranteeing longevity and durability. The strap, made from luxurious cordovan leather, further enhances the overall opulence of the timepiece.

Underneath this captivating exterior lies a new in-house movement, the caliber F7M62, a refinement of the caliber 46 series launched in 1971. This innovative movement provides the new timepiece with a substantial 50-hour power reserve, ensuring reliability for the modern wearer, and reliable high accuracy of +15 seconds to −5 seconds per day.
The semi-skeleton aperture at 9 o’clock, power reserve indicator at 12 o’clock, and moon phase with date display at 6 o’clock showcase Orient Star’s dedication to functionality without compromising on elegance.
True to form, horologists can admire the intricate details of the Mechanical Moon Phase through the sapphire crystal case back. The beautifully embellished movement, part of the 46-F7 series, confirms the precision and dedication invested in the piece.
Priced at £1,669.99, the Orient Star Mechanical Moon Phase looks to be a worthy investment for those who appreciate the fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation. It’s available now from Orient Star.
