I-ORIENT STAR ibhengeza isizukulwana esitsha sesakhiwo esidumileyo semodeli esivela kwingqokelela yayo yakudala. Ixhotyiswe ngentshukumo entsha yesandla kunye nokugcina amandla iiyure ezingama-70, le wotshi intsha idibanisa izinto zoyilo lwakudala kunye netekhnoloji yamva nje, ngesibindi ikhumbula iminyaka engama-70 yembali yokwenza iiwotshi ze-Orient Star.
Kutshanje sifunde nge-Orient kunye nolwakhiwo lwayo oluntsonkothileyo lwenkampani, kunye nolwalamano lwayo ne-Epson kunye neSeiko. Uphononongo lwethu olupheleleyo lwe-Orient Diver luneenkcukacha ezithe vetshe ngale nto (jonga icandelo le-Competitive Landscape) kunye nohlalutyo lwethu lwewotshi. Ukongeza kwiiwotshi zophawu lwase-Oriental, i-Oriental Watch ikwabonelela ngengqokelela ephezulu. Bayibize le ngcelele ngokuba yiNkwenkwezi yaseMpuma. Ngale meko, le ngqokelela ibonisa kuphela iintshukumo zoomatshini, zonke ziphuhlisiwe kwaye zenziwe ngaphakathi kumzi-mveliso wayo eShiojiri. Yindawo enkulu enamaphiko anikezelwe kuyilo kunye nokuveliswa kweeprinta ze-Epson, kunye nezibonelelo zokwenza iintshukumo zeSpring Drive kunye ne-quartz zeewotshi zeSeiko kunye neGrand Seiko. Esi sakhiwo sikwanendawo yestudiyo yomculi omncinci.
Kubonakala ngathi i-Orient Star ineewotshi zoomatshini ezenziwe ngexabiso eliphezulu ezijolise kwinqanaba lokuqala. Ibhokisi yentsimbi engagqwaliyo kunye nedayili enemibala epheleleyo, exabiso layo liphantsi kwe-4k SGD, imele ixabiso elinomdla elinokuthelekiswa neminikelo yeSeiko kunye neGrand Seiko, kunye neCitizen's Series 8 entsha.
Kodwa xa sijonga iifoto, i-skeleton yeminyaka engama-70 ibonakala inomdla. Sele benayo i-series eqhelekileyo ene-skeleton, kodwa abo basebenzisa i-Cal.48E51 eqhelekileyo enendawo yokugcina amandla yeeyure ezingama-50, kwaye iimodeli ze-anniversary zisebenzisa i-Cal.F8B62 enendawo yokugcina amandla yeeyure ezingama-70. Imodeli eqhelekileyo ixabisa i-S$2,800.
Iimodeli zeminyaka emibini ziyafumaneka ngemibala emibini: idayali yeshampagne enentshukumo yegolide kunye nedayili emhlophe enentshukumo yesilivere. Zombini iimodeli zinezikheyisi zentsimbi engagqwaliyo ezingama-316L kunye nemitya yesikhumba se-alligator.
Asizange sibe nethuba lokuhlola iimveliso ze-Orient Star ngokwazo, kwaye xa sizenza, siza kunika ingxelo ngohlalutyo lwethu olusebenzayo kunye neefoto.
Ukususela ekuzalweni kwayo ngo-1951, i-ORIENT STAR ibizimisele ekudaleni iwotshi yoomatshini eye yaba "yinkwenkwezi ekhanyayo". Kuyo yonke imbali yayo, olu phawu beluvelisa iiwotshi ezenziwe eJapan ezikumgangatho ophezulu, ludibanisa ubugcisa bendabuko kunye netekhnoloji yamva nje yokwenza iiwotshi. Ukubhiyozela iminyaka engama-70 kulo nyaka, i-Orient Star iza kusungula isitayile esitsha esidibanisa itekhnoloji kunye nomtsalane wobuhle phantsi komxholo othi "AKUKHO NDAWO, NGOKU APHA" (oko kuthetha ukuba akukho ndawo ifumaneka kuyo, kodwa ilapha ngoku).
Inguqulelo yesiqingatha se-skeleton ibonisa inxalenye yentshukumo yewotshi nge-skeletonized dial, ngelixa inguqulelo ye-skeletonized ibonisa umgaqo ocacileyo wokusebenza kwewotshi yonke. Kuphela yisakhiwo sepleyiti esezantsi, iibhulorho kunye nezinto zentshukumo ezigciniweyo, kwaye uyilo lwayo oluhle kakhulu luhlukile kwiiwotshi zoomatshini kwaye luyathandwa ngabathandi bewotshi kwihlabathi liphela. Yaziswa okokuqala ngo-1991 kwaye ngoku ikwiminyaka yayo yama-30, intshukumo ye-skeleton ineendawo ezingaphezulu kwekhulu ezichanekileyo, ezihlanganiswe ngesandla ngabenzi beewotshi abazinikeleyo nabanobuchule e-Akita, idolophu yase-Orient Star.
Intshukumo yamva nje ye-46-F8 series (F8B62 kunye ne-F8B63) eyenziwe ngokwayo, enendawo yokugcina amandla yeeyure ezingama-70, idlula iiyure ezingama-50 zangoku, iluncedo ngakumbi kunangaphambili. Xa i-mainspring ivaliwe ngokupheleleyo, iwotshi ingasuswa ngoLwesihlanu ebusuku kwaye isenamandla aneleyo okuqhubeka isebenza kude kube kusasa ngoMvulo. Amaxesha okusebenza amade axhamla kwivili elitsha le-silicon escape, elikhaphukhaphu kwaye lisebenza ngomatshini ngokuchanekileyo okukhulu, nto leyo ephucula ukusebenza kakuhle kokudluliselwa kwamandla kwe-escapement.
Ivili elitsha le-silicon escape eline-spring mechanism lenziwe ngaphakathi kwaye lenziwa kusetyenziswa itekhnoloji ye-MEMS, ekwasetyenziswa kwinkqubo yokuvelisa ii-printheads ze-Epson ezichanekileyo kakhulu. Ivili le-escape, elibonakala ngesakhiwo samathambo ewotshi, lisebenzisa itekhnoloji ye-semiconductor ye-Epson ukulawula ubukhulu befilimu kwinqanaba le-nanometer ukulungisa ukukhanya kwayo, nto leyo ebangela umbala oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka oqaqambileyo. Umbala oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka ocacileyo kunye nemilo eyahlukileyo ye-spiral zikhumbuza iMilky Way kwaye zifanekisela umxholo woyilo ophefumlelwe yi-cosmos wesikhumbuzo seminyaka engama-70 ye-Orient Star.
Iinkcukacha ezintsonkothileyo zentshukumo ye-skeletonized zingabonwa nge-skeletonized dial ngaphandle kokuphazamisa umlinganiswa kunye nomsebenzi wewotshi. Ii-calibres ezintsha ze-46-F8 series zibonisa amaxesha amade okubaleka kunye nokuchaneka okuphezulu kwemizuzwana eyi-+15 ukuya kwi-5 ngosuku, nokuba i-skeleton ikwindawo yokugqibela. Inxalenye yentshukumo ngentsimbi ye-9 yenziwe ngendlela ye-comet enemisila emibini, kwakhona iveza umxholo we-cosmic we-Orient Star.
Kukwakho neepateni ezisikiweyo ezahlukeneyo ngaphambili nangasemva kwentshukumo – ipateni ejikelezayo kwidayali kunye nepateni yamaza ngasemva kwebhokisi, kunye neendawo ezithambileyo ezithambileyo ezongeza ukukhanya okuqaqambileyo. Iinkcukacha ezimangalisayo zimele incopho yobugcisa be-Orient Star, kwaye upende oluchasene nokukhanya kumacala omabini ekristale ye-hyperboloid ye-sapphire uvumela umntu onxibe ukuba abone yonke inkcukacha eyinkimbinkimbi yale ntshukumo ikumgangatho ophezulu – Umlandeli omnandi kakhulu kuyo yonke iwotshi yoomatshini.
