Orient Men’s ‘Polaris GMT’ Japanese Automatic Stainless Steel and Leather Dress Watch, Color:Brown (Model: FDJ05003W0) Review

The Orient Polaris is a dual time, GMT watch that gives you the ability to track two different time zones. In addition to the 12-hour hands and dial markers, the chapter ring is a 24-hour scale. A separately adjustable hand (with lumed tip) tracks the second time zone in GMT or military time. The Orient caliber 40P51 automatic movement is self-winding, and it can be hand wound and it has a hacking feature. A handy indicator at 12:00 shows you up to 40 hours of power reserve when fully wound. Date is at the 3:00 position on the dial. And, the dial is gorgeous with its guilloche and concentric grained textures. It gives the watch a little touch of opulence under the scratch resistant sapphire crystal.|The 42mm diameter stainless steel case has a brushed finish with polished accents. On the backside of the watch you will find an exhibition window for viewing the automatic movement. Finally, a rich looking brown alligator grained strap with a matching stainless steel buckle completes the elegant look.|Note: Hacking function means that the sweep or second hand comes to stop when you pull out the crown to set the time. This is useful for setting two or more watches to the exact same time.

With your travel plans already made, it’s important not to forget that a reliable timepiece is a travel essential. The Polaris GMT is an elevated executive-styled watch packed with exquisite features. Unlike the Adventurer World Time watch, the Polaris GMT only displays two sets of times at once. How? It has a fourth GMT hand that can be set independently from the time. You won’t be able to miss it: it’s long and curved nearly like an arrow. Once set, the hand will move forward as time elapses, tracking the second time zone with ease. The dial of the watch has all the embellishments that you’d find on a classic timepiece. All the stainless steel accents are mirror polished, and contrast beautifully with the guilloche and concentric grained textures on the dial. This is what Orient does best: creating a watch that may appear simple to the naked eye, but highly detailed at a closer glance. The crystal is a scratch resistant sapphire, which will help the watch look brand new every time you wear it. The Polaris is a modestly sized watch at 42mm. The qualities of the case reflect the same opulence as the dial, with smooth edges and a polished surface. The watch is powered by Orient’s caliber 40P51 movement, which is not only automatic, but can be hand wound, and will stop fully when the crown is pulled out, for greater time setting.
