Product Information

Full details

The Orient AC0F Series is an ideal timepiece for enthusiasts who appreciate refined, understated elegance and mechanical reliability in their everyday wear. Featuring a sophisticated ivory dial and a durable stainless steel case, it offers a perfect balance of horological craftsmanship and practical design, though potential buyers should note it is intended for daily use rather than specialized aquatic sports due to its 50m water resistance rating.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I go swimming with this watch?

No. While it has 50m water resistance, this is only suitable for splashes and light rain, not submersion or swimming.

Does this watch have a hacking feature?

Yes, the F6722 movement supports hacking, meaning the second hand stops when the crown is pulled out to the time-setting position.

What is the lug width for strap replacement?

The Orient AC0F series uses a standard 20mm lug width.

Is the crystal truly sapphire?

Yes, this model features scratch-resistant sapphire crystal for enhanced durability.

Does the watch need batteries?

No, this is a mechanical automatic watch that is powered entirely by the motion of your wrist or manual winding.

Troubleshooting

The watch stopped running after sitting on the desk overnight

The power reserve is 40 hours; if it stops, manually wind the crown 15-20 times or wear the watch to provide movement for the automatic rotor.

The date is changing at noon instead of midnight

The watch is set 12 hours off; pull the crown to the time-setting position, advance the time forward by 12 hours, and reset the date accordingly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality sapphire crystal provides excellent scratch protection
  • Versatile design suitable for a variety of formal and casual settings
  • Reliable in-house F6722 movement with hand-winding support
  • Comfortable brown leather strap right out of the box
  • Sophisticated ivory dial offers a distinct and refined appearance

Cons

  • 50m water resistance is insufficient for swimming or diving
  • 41.6mm case size may be large for those with smaller wrists
  • Leather strap will require periodic replacement over many years of use
  • Lacks a screw-down crown which limits its heavy-duty water protection

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set the time, pull the crown out to the second click and rotate until the hands are in the desired position. Pushing the crown to the first click allows for the adjustment of the date. Because this is a mechanical automatic watch, it is best stored in a cool, dry place away from strong magnetic fields such as speakers or electronic motors, which can influence timekeeping accuracy. The leather strap is compatible with standard 20mm lug-width aftermarket straps if you wish to change the look. For cleaning, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth on the case and sapphire crystal; avoid using chemicals on the leather strap.
