A truly rare and vintage timepiece! This Orient automatic Sapphire wristwatch, reference EV0J-C0-B, dates back to the 1990s.
It is powered by an original Orient automatic movement, caliber 46E40 featuring 21 jewels, a sweep-second hand, a day/date indicator, and a 40-hour power reserve, operating at 21,600 vibrations per hour. Made in Japan.
The watch is housed in a 36.7mm stainless steel round case with a fixed president-style bezel and offers water resistance up to 10 bar (100 meters / 330 feet). Additionally, it features a secure screw-down crown.
The blue sunburst dial is beautifully adorned with diamond accent hour markers, a white "railroad" minute/second track, and matching hands. The day window is conveniently placed at 12 o'clock, while the date indicator sits at 3 o'clock. The dial is signed with the Orient logo at the top and "Automatic Sapphire 100m" at the bottom.
It comes with the original Orient stainless steel bracelet, which comfortably fits wrists up to 7 1/4" (18.4cm).

Vintage watches are traditionally smaller than today's watches. Men’s watches typically measure between 29-36mm wide (some larger, some smaller) excluding the crown. In the listing details we typically try to do our best to list all pertinent dimensions of a watch. If you don't see it, or we failed to do so, please reach out to us. Women’s watches from the 1900s-1970s were also much smaller than today's offerings. Please also feel free to ask any questions you have pertaining to size.
We prefer to shoot photographs outside when weather is permitting. However, when we shoot indoors, please be aware that we shoot our photographs inside of lightboxes that are lit with 360 LED bulbs. This indeed magnifies any flaws. Usually, they are much less obvious to the naked eye. Having said that, we never photoshop any of our photography, remove blemishes, etc. We adjust the lighting, when necessary, but what you see is what you are getting, and we take pride in that.
The condition is pre-owned.
The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear but is fully operational and functions as intended.
Please review the photos and feel free to ask any questions you may have.
It will be carefully packed.
