Japanese watchmaker Orient has announced a new model, in the form of the Maker 40, a dive-style timepiece with a smaller case and range of new colours. Arriving in August, the new watch has a case diameter of 39.9 mm, making it ideal for smaller and larger wrists alike. Its predecessor was a little larger, at 41.8 mm.
The new model continues the Mako tradition of being a watch with a vintage feel and dive-style design. What we mean by that is, while the watch doesn’t meet the ISO standards for a true diving watch, it has key dive design details like an unidirectional rotating bezel, screw-down crown and illuminating hands and hour markers.
