Orient SEL06002B STI Limited Edition

Introduction

The Orient SEL06002B is the newest Orient STI Limited Edition watch. Orient has sponsored Subaru’s STI division for years now and occasionally releases limited edition watches. This model has been modified to match the STI racing style, but this is hardly a gimmick watch. It’s a high quality watch with many great features. To start off, it’s ISO certified for diving (ISO 6425, 674 and 1413). Alongside the 200m water resistance, this means it’s very well suited for nearly any activity in and surrounding water.
Under the hood there’s a reliable Orient in-house 40N5A movement that hacks and can be winded by hand. If we take a look at the dial, we can first note that the dial itself is protection by nice sapphire glass. The dial is made from black carbon fiber, entirely in style with the racing pedigree of this watch. The watch is very legible and features a power reserve indicator at 6 o’clock.

Despite being a fairly large watch, it’s surprisingly comfortable. In part due to the crown being on the left side, which means it won’t dig into your wrist.

The SEL06002B is limited to just 1500 pieces worldwide and each piece is number on the caseback.
