This time, Orient introduces a new addition that is sure to captivate watch enthusiasts—four new models from the Semi Skeleton series in the Contemporary Collection, showcasing vibrant new dial colors.
New Dial Colors for Watch Enthusiasts
On February 14, 2024, Orient unveiled four new color variations for its iconic Semi Skeleton model. Shades like white, red, green, and light blue have been added to the dial lineup, offering even more options for watch lovers.
The Semi Skeleton is celebrated for its distinctive dial featuring a semi-transparent aperture at the 9 o’clock position, partially overlapping the small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock, along with its signature case design. Its contemporary style has garnered worldwide admiration from users.
Casual Elegance Meets Luxury
The new dial colors lend a more casual vibe to the collection, making it particularly appealing to a younger audience. Among the new additions is a model with a gold-colored case and bracelet—a first for the Semi Skeleton series. The white dial paired with gold hands and indices creates a unique aesthetic, combining warmth with luxury.
Vibrant color combinations are also present in the red, green, and light blue dials. The red and light blue dials feature silver hands and indices, while the green dial showcases gold accents. The striking harmony and contrast of these colors make the Semi Skeleton even more captivating.

A transparent case back reveals the automatic movement (with manual winding capability) powered by the F6S22 caliber. Renowned for its stable accuracy of +25 to -15 seconds per day and a power reserve of 40 hours, this movement makes the watch a practical choice for everyday wear.

How do you adjust a watch that’s running fast?
Have you noticed that your watch is running fast and are starting to lose confidence in it? Don’t worry – this doesn’t necessarily mean there’s a serious fault. In many cases, it’s a natural characteristic of the mechanism or the result of minor factors that can be quickly diagnosed.

Replacing the battery and closing the watch – what should you watch out for?
Changing a watch battery seems like a simple task – a few minutes, a quick swap, and you’re done. In practice, however, this is a moment when it’s easy to make a small mistake that ends up costing far more than the battery itself. It’s not just about getting the watch working again, but about doing so in a way that’s safe for the movement, the case and… the water resistance.

Watch dial restoration – when is it worth it, and when is it better to give it a miss?
Not every watch dial restoration is a good idea – sometimes you improve the appearance, but lose something far more important. The line between refreshing the look and losing the original character is a fine one, and a single decision can affect not only the aesthetics but also the value of the entire watch. If you’re wondering whether restoring watch dials makes sense in your case, it’s worth looking at the issue more broadly – not just in terms of ‘prettier’, but above all ‘better’.
How can I clean my watch face without risking damage?
At first glance, it might seem like just a quick wipe of the glass – but in reality, it’s one of the most common mistakes, which can permanently ruin the appearance of your watch. If you want the dial to look as good as new for years to come, it’s worth knowing what to avoid at all costs and how to clean it safely – without the risk of scratches, tarnishing or costly repairs.
