A major new star in the night’s sky: The design classic Orion is finally available in a strikingly deep blue—as an extra-large, extra-thin, extra-precise automatic watch for those who don’t need to boast. With diamond-polished indexes, rhodium-plated hands and, at six o’clock, a shooting star that never burns out: the seconds hand in neon orange.
More than 9 to 5: Orion in deep midnight blue is ready for 5 to 9 too. Quite casually, without even trying, this classic demonstrates elegance as well.
Visible under the sapphire crystal glass back: one less thing to do. This caliber takes care of winding quite automatically.
A self-winding version of Orion? For a long time, it was unthinkable. The case was too elegant, the design too slender, the lines wouldn’t flow. A new automatic caliber, DUW 3001, was required. And now you see, it works!
Impression
This midnight blue automatic model measures just under 39 millimeters in diameter, though the elongated lugs and incredibly slender case make it appear even larger.
Fabian has a wrist circumference of 18.5 cm (7.3") and a strap length of M.
