ORIENT STAR yatangaje ko hazabaho igisekuru gishya cy’amasaha y’icyitegererezo cy’akataraboneka cyane mu ikusanyirizo ryayo rya kera. Iyi saha nshya ifite uburyo bushya bwo gukora ibikomere ku ntoki hamwe n’amashanyarazi ahoraho amasaha 70, ihuza ibintu bya kera n’ikoranabuhanga rigezweho, yibutsa imyaka 70 Orient Star imaze ikora amasaha.
Duherutse kumenya ibya Orient n'imiterere yayo ikomeye, ndetse n'imikoranire yayo na Epson na Seiko. Isuzuma ryacu ryuzuye rya Orient Diver rifite ibisobanuro birambuye kuri ibi (reba igice cya Competitive Landscape) ndetse n'isesengura ryacu ry'isaha. Uretse amasaha yo mu bwoko bwa Orient, Oriental Watch inatanga icyegeranyo cyo mu rwego rwo hejuru. Bayise uruhererekane Inyenyeri y'Iburasirazuba. Muri ubu buryo, icyegeranyo kigaragaza gusa ingendo za mekanike, zose zakozwe kandi zigakorerwa mu ruganda rwayo i Shiojiri. Ni ikigo kinini gifite amababa yagenewe igishushanyo n'ikorwa rya za printer za Epson, ndetse n'ibikoresho byo gukora ingendo za Spring Drive na quartz ku masaha ya Seiko na Grand Seiko. Muri icyo kigo kandi harimo studio ntoya y'abahanzi.
Orient Star isa nkaho itanga amasaha yo mu rwego rwo hejuru akozwe mu buryo bwa tekiniki agenewe urwego rwo hasi. Agasanduku k'icyuma kitagira umugese n'agasanduku kuzuyemo skeleton, gafite igiciro kiri munsi ya 4k SGD, bigaragaza agaciro gashimishije gashobora kugereranywa n'ibindi bisekuruza byayo Seiko na Grand Seiko, ndetse na Citizen's Series 8 nshya.
Ariko ukurikije amafoto, icyuma cy’isabukuru y’imyaka 70 gisa neza cyane. Basanzwe bafite icyuma gisanzwe gifite icyuma, ariko abo bakoresha Cal.48E51 isanzwe ifite amashanyarazi ahoraho amasaha 50, naho igikoresho cy’isabukuru gikoresha Cal.F8B62 ifite amashanyarazi ahoraho amasaha 70. Igiciro cyacyo kiri hasi kuri $2,800.
Izo moderi zo kwizihiza isabukuru ebyiri ziboneka mu mabara abiri: agapira ka champagne gafite ibara rya zahabu n'agapira k'umweru gafite ibara rya feza. Izo moderi zombi zifite udusanduku tw'icyuma cya stainless steel twa 316L n'imishumi y'uruhu rw'ingona.
Ntabwo twabonye amahirwe yo kugenzura ibicuruzwa bya Orient Star imbonankubone, kandi nitubikora, tuzatanga raporo binyuze mu isesengura ryacu n'amafoto yacu.
Kuva yavuka mu 1951, ORIENT STAR yiyemeje gukora isaha ikoze mu ikoranabuhanga yahindutse "inyenyeri irabagirana". Mu mateka yayo yose, iyi sosiyete yagiye ikora amasaha meza cyane yakozwe mu Buyapani, ihuza ubuhanga gakondo n'ikoranabuhanga rigezweho ryo gukora amasaha. Mu rwego rwo kwizihiza isabukuru y'imyaka 70 uyu mwaka, Orient Star izashyira ahagaragara uburyo bushya buvanga ikoranabuhanga n'ubwiza bw'ubwiza munsi y'insanganyamatsiko igira iti "NTAHO, NONE HANO" (bivuze ko ntaho iboneka, ariko irahari ubu).
Verisiyo y'igice cy'amagufwa igaragaza igice cy'urugendo rw'isaha binyuze mu gice cy'amagufwa, mu gihe verisiyo y'amagufwa igaragaza ihame rirambuye ry'imikorere y'isaha yose. Imiterere y'isaha yo hasi, ibiraro n'ibice bigize iyo saha ni byo bigumana gusa, kandi imiterere yayo myiza ni yihariye mu masaha ya tekiniki kandi ikunzwe n'abakunzi b'isaha hirya no hino ku isi. Yatangiye gukoreshwa mu 1991, ubu ikaba imaze imyaka 30, iyi saha igizwe n'ibice birenga ijana by'ubuhanga, byakusanyijwe n'intoki n'abakora amasaha b'abahanga kandi b'abahanga muri Akita, umujyi wa Orient Star.
Uburyo bushya bwo gutwara 46-F8 (F8B62 na F8B63) bwikora, bufite ingufu zihagije z'amasaha 70, burenga amasaha 50 ariho ubu, ni ingirakamaro kurusha mbere hose. Iyo umuyoboro w'amashanyarazi umaze gupfundika neza, isaha ishobora gukurwaho kuwa gatanu nijoro kandi igakomeza gukora kugeza kuwa mbere mu gitondo. Igihe kirekire cyo gukora cyungukirwa n'uruziga rushya rwa silikoni, rworoshye kandi rukozwe neza, bigatuma ingufu ziyongera.
Uruziga rushya rwa silikoni rukoreshwa mu gusohora urumuri rufite uburyo bwo gusohora urumuri rwakozwe mu nzu rukoresheje ikoranabuhanga rya MEMS, rinakoreshwa mu gukora udupapuro twa Epson tw’amashusho twiza cyane. Uruziga rukoreshwa mu gusohora urumuri, rugaragara binyuze mu miterere y’isaha, rukoresha ikoranabuhanga rya semiconductor rya Epson kugira ngo rugenzure ubugari bwa filime ku rwego rwa nanometero kugira ngo ruhindure urumuri rwayo, bigatuma habaho ibara ry’ubururu butangaje. Ibara ry’ubururu butangaje n’imiterere yihariye y’uruziga bitwibutsa inzira y’amata kandi bigaragaza insanganyamatsiko y’igishushanyo mbonera cyahumetswe n’ikirere mu isabukuru y’imyaka 70 ya Orient Star.
Ibisobanuro birambuye by’ingendo y’amaskeleton bishobora kugaragara binyuze mu gice cy’isaha gifite skeleton ariko nta kwangiza imiterere n’imikorere y’isaha. Calibre nshya ya 46-F8 ifite igihe kirekire cyo kwiruka no gukora neza cyane kuva ku masegonda +15 kugeza kuri -5 ku munsi, ndetse no ku gice cy’isaha gifite skeleton nziza cyane. Igice cy’ingendo saa cyenda cyakozwe mu ishusho ya comet ifite imirizo ibiri, yongera kugaragaza insanganyamatsiko y’inyenyeri y’iburasirazuba.
Hariho kandi imiterere itandukanye imbere n'inyuma y'ishusho - ishusho y'uruziga ku gasanduku n'igishushanyo cy'umuraba inyuma y'agasanduku, hamwe n'ibice bito bito bitanga urumuri rwiza. Imiterere itangaje igaragaza ubuhanga bw'abahanga ba Orient Star, kandi irangi rituje ku mpande zombi za kristale ya safiro ya hyperboloid rituma uwambaye abona buri kantu kose gakomeye k'iyi shusho nziza - Umufana ushimishije cyane kuri buri saha ya mekanike.
